Female Rhinoplasty Gallery Patient 122144756
Patient is a 31-year-old female with a long-standing desire to improve her breathing and change the appearance of her nose. She does not like her masculine appearing profile with a prominent dorsal hump and drooping nasal tip that lacks feminine projection and plunges when she smiles. She feels that her nose is too wide and makes her look like she has had multiple nasal fractures. She would like to look more beautiful, with the ability to breathe better.
Procedure: Septorhinoplasty with reduction of nasal dorsal hump, and placement of internal cartilage grafts to increase nasal projection and open internal breathing passages. The nasal bones were narrowed, and the nasal tip cartilages were contoured utilizing suture techniques. A fascial graft was placed at her nasal radix (the top of her nose) to soften the nasal profile and give a more feminine appearance to her nose. She is delighted with both the appearance of her nose, and the ability to finally breathe well. Photographs are approximately 4 months after sugery.
