Primary

In this young man, the dorsum is wide and the tip is markedly deformed, with alar cartilages that are excessively wide, bulbous, convex, asymmetric, and rotated too far upward relative to the nostril margin. In addition, in profile and in the three-quarter view, the nose appears excessively projected. In this case, the surgical plan consists of narrowing the dorsum as appropriate through precise osteotomies of the nasal bones, deprojecting the tip, and, above all, restoring symmetry and harmony to the tip by combining selective resection of the superior border of the alar cartilages, downward repositioning of the alar cartilages, targeted sutures, and the use of thin, selective grafts (harvested from the septum) placed on the internal surface of those same cartilages. Surgery for a tip of this type is particularly sophisticated and requires a combination of several techniques, in addition, of course, to the open approach.

The aesthetic lines of the dorsum have been corrected. Radix, dorsum, and tip are now in harmony.
In the base view, the significant deformity of the tip cartilages has been corrected.
In the three-quarter view, the improvement in proportions and the correction of the tip deformity are evident.
In profile, the nose has been deprojected and the dorsal hump reduced as needed.
Appearance at three weeks postoperatively: part of the edema has already resolved, although this occurs more slowly in the male nose. The columellar access scar is only slightly reddened.
