Brief description/objective
A plethora of publications addresses surgical techniques in rhinoplasty, whereas substantially less has been published on psychological aspects and the planning of the procedure. This review covers the psychology of the rhinoplasty patient, risk factors for postoperative dissatisfaction, the surgeon-patient relationship, planning of the procedure using computer imaging and obtaining informed consent.
