title: Closed rhinoplasty with an intercartilaginous midmarginal incision.
abstract: In septorhinoplasty, one of the most critical points is to reestablish the support for the nasal tip damaged by surgery. This can be achieved by suturing the nasal structures to each other. We describe our incision and suturing technique for closed rhinoplasty, which provides wide exposure and adequate nasal tip support.
