Piezo technology: Ultrasound instead of a hammer
The gentle revolution in nasal surgery
Many people throughout Austria wish for a well-shaped nose—whether for aesthetic or functional reasons. However, the idea of traditional instruments can be off-putting.
At Dr. Philipp Mayr’s practice in Leonding near Linz, we therefore rely on a particularly gentle, modern approach: piezo technique.
DR. MAYR TO ARRANGE AN APPOINTMENT

What is piezo technology for rhinoplasty?
Piezo technology is an innovative method in plastic and functional nasal surgery. Instead of breaking bones with conventional surgical tools, we use ultrasound frequencies that act exclusively on bone and hard cartilage – not on soft tissue, nerves or blood vessels.
The ultrasound instrument vibrates at a high frequency and allows incisions to be made on the nasal bone with millimeter precision – gently, minimally invasive and without major trauma. Depending on the thickness of the skin mantle, this allows us to achieve particularly natural, delicate results.
Who is piezo technology suitable for?
This method is ideal for people who:
- want an aesthetic rhinoplasty with fine, natural results
- require a functional improvement in nasal breathing
- look for a method that is as gentle and painless as possible
- Are afraid of swelling, bruising or long downtimes
- rely on modern technology & highest precision

Procedure & Healing
- Individual consultation & planning
Before the procedure, Dr. Philipp Mayr takes a lot of time to listen to your wishes and discusses the best course of treatment with you – whether aesthetic or functional (e.g. for breathing problems). - Gentle procedure under anesthesia
The piezo device is used to make targeted corrections to the nasal bones – without damaging the soft tissue. - Short healing phase
Thanks to the gentle method, bruising and swelling are significantly less than with conventional surgery. Many patients are able to socialize again after just a few days.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
How much does a nose correction with piezo technology cost?
The cost of a nose correction with piezo technology in Linz-Leonding depends on the extent of the procedure. We will draw up a transparent cost plan for you in a personal consultation.
Is piezo technology safe?
Yes – it is one of the most modern and safest methods in nasal surgery in Vienna, Linz, Wels, Salzburg and throughout Austria. The risk of bleeding, nerve irritation or complications is reduced to a minimum thanks to ultrasound technology.
Will scars remain?
In most cases, access for rhinoplasty using the piezo technique is via the inside of the nose (closed technique) so that there are no visible external scars.
If an open technique is required, a fine incision is made on the bridge of the nose – this is usually barely visible after healing and usually fades very well.
How long will I be restricted afterwards?
Most patients report very little impairment. After just 10-14 days, you are usually able to socialize again.
