Abstract
■ Expert knowledge of nasal anatomy and function is the key to success in rhinoplasty surgery.
■ Facial analysis and facial aesthetic principles must always be a part of the initial patient evaluation.
■ Surgical manipulations of the nasal anatomy have functional and aesthetic impact.
■ A skilled rhinoplasty surgeon understands the interaction between anatomical units and takes care to preserve these functional relationships to avoid future complications.
