This technique uses an absorbable percutaneous suture, allowing for the approximation of the upper lateral cartilages and thus thinning of the middle third of the nose. The authors discuss the technical aspects and advantages of the J-suture, emphasizing its simplicity, predictability, reproducibility, and ease of execution. The technique, requiring minimal training, can be adopted by any surgeon practicing preservation rhinoplasty.
