Background and Objectives Convincing a patient who has undergone any aesthetic surgery to come for a long-term follow-up is extremely difficult. The result obtained after rhinoplasty usually stabilizes in the first year and it is unlikely to change after 2 years. The precision carving technique described in 2014 has been employed by us for the last several years. We wish to present long-term results (at least 2 years) obtained using this technique, now renamed as “Nair Hospital Precision Carving technique.” The unfavorable effects of warping are most apparent in the dorsum. So, we have chosen to assess results of dorsal onlay grafts only. This article presents the long-term results obtained using favorable warping technique.
