Patient is a 16-year-old female with a long-standing desire to have a more attractive nose and stronger, more balanced profile. She was self-conscious of her nose, and this combined with the weakness of her chin had made her shy. She wanted to have a prettier and feminine nose that better balanced and complemented her other features.
Rhinoplasty with Septoplasty with reduction of nasal bump and refinement of nasal tip utilizing reduction and suture techniques. A fascial graft was placed at her radix (area at top of nose beneath eyebrows) to soften the transition between her forehead and nose giving the illusion of actually shortening the entire nasal profile. She also underwent chin augmentation with placement of a medium extended anatomic implant. She is delighted with her surgical results, and the transformational improvement in her confidence and poise are absolutely astonishing.
