Dorsal preservation rhinoplasty has seen considerable advances in the recent years as many doctors have improved and developed new ideas on the subject. In the era of minimal trauma surgery, it is important to achieve a beautiful nasal aesthetic result with minimum injury to the nose. Preserving the main structures of the nasal pyramid has been pursued for more than a century, and some different approaches have been described and developed since then. Their strengths and weakness have been shown. The present society's demand for perfection is an added reason for improving the stability and predictability of preservation rhinoplasty. We describe a brand-new philosophy of approaching the nasal dorsum hump that combines both safety and delicacy in dealing with the anatomical structures with elegancy and accuracy and achieving the aesthetic goal required.

The term SPAR (septum pyramidal adjustment and repositioning), aims to conserve the nasal dorsum without detachment of the upper lateral nasal cartilage of the nasal septum, based on the Cotte's principles, unlike classical rhinoplasty. The aim of the study is to describe surgical technique of SPAR with the surgical steps used to reviewing the literature on the surgical treatment of the nasal dorsum. This is a less invasive form of rhinoplasty, but no less effective, not being necessary additional techniques to nasal reconstruction, and preservation of essential nasal structures. It is an evolution of push down and the other conservative surgery, making a more modern technique and may be suitable for most types of cavities. More studies are needed, especially comparative, showing the following late sequelae, complications, and their long-term results.
