Rhinophyma tends to determine important nasal changes, with aesthetic and functional impairment, especially in more advanced cases. Despite the various techniques already described, the search for the ideal treatment persists. Two patients with rhinophyma underwent tangential excision associated with electrocoagulation, with subsequent intensive cosmetic treatment. The described technique is effective, safe, with excellent aesthetic results and no recurrences during the study period. This proposed combined treatment appears as a great alternative for the treatment of rhinophyma due to its technical simplicity and its good long-term results.
