Female Rhinoplasty Gallery Patient 17363813
Patient is a 23-year-old Hispanic female who had long desired a perkier and more feminine appearing nose. She specifically did not like her large dorsal hump and poorly projected nasal tip that drooped when she smiled. She desired a more refined and attractive appearing nose that better complemented her facial features, and hopefully augments her self-esteem.
Procedure: This patient is a classic example of someone with a classic hispanic nose. She had a dorsal hump and lacked nasal tip support that allowed the tip to droop upon smiling. She underwent a rhinoplasty septoplasty and reduction of boney dorsal hump and narrowing of the nasal bones with recontouring to create attractive dorsal aesthetic lines. She had placement of a cartilage strut connected to the now midline nasal septum to support the nasal tip and allow contouring of the nasal tip through suture techniques, and rotation to make the nose appear perky. The caudal septum was deepened to sharpen the angle between the lip and nose which served to make the upper lip look longer and more aesthetic, bringing balance the entire face. The patient was extremely happy with her results. She felt prettier, more confident, and others had difficulty exactly deciphering what was done.
