Albuquerque Nose Job Surgery Financing

John Orlando Roe entered history as the father of aesthetic rhinoplasty after having reported a “simple operation” in 1887 describing the correction of a “pug nose” through an endonasal approach. Four years later Roe performed endonasal hump reductions. It was seven years later that Jacques Joseph published similar techniques, presumably without knowledge of Roe's reports. Joseph is generally accepted as the founder of functional rhinoplasty. In 1982 Weir described the technique of “nasal infraction”, augmented saddle noses with implants made of duck-sternum and described the rotation of the drooping tip by a wedge excision from the caudal septum. The latter technique is today still named after him. The first transplantation of costal cartilage was published by Mangoldt in1900. Many new instruments were introduced between the 1960's and 1980's. At the time, various modifications of osteotomes replaced the hand-held saw for the lateral osteotomy. Reports on the use of a drill in 1981 were long forgotten when the development of shavers and endo-nasal drill systems 20 years later brought up the discussion of powered instrumentation for rhinoplasty again, indicating the unresolved issues regarding ideal instrumentation.
