Rhinoplasty Before & After: Refined a Bulbous, Droopy Tip & Smoothed a Dorsal Hump while Correcting a Deviated Septum

Rhinoplasty #289

Our handsome patient is seen one year following functional and cosmetic rhinoplasty surgery. He did not like the bulbous appearance of his tip, and he also did not like his profile appearance which showed a large dorsal hump and droopiness of his tip with smiling. Additionally he had chronic nasal obstruction due to a severely deviated nasal septum, and refractory turbinate hypertrophy. We corrected his deviated nasal septum, and reduced his turbinates for a nasal Airway. You can see a narrower bridge and tip appearance on front view. On profile, you can see a less projected and less distracting masculine nasal appearance. To achieve his tip definition, we thinned his oily nasal tip skin, and we used an extended shield graft. We are grateful that he has allowed us to share his results.
