Secondary

This young patient primarily complained of a significant post-traumatic torsional deformity of the dorsum and tip. This was accompanied by marked breathing impairment, clearly visible on CT. The procedure consisted of wide exposure of all structures, asymmetric mobilization of the nasal bones, midline reconstruction of the nasal septum, tip reshaping, and reduction of the width of the nasal alae. As is often required in cases of multiple, significant septal deformities, the septoplasty required an extracorporeal reconstruction. The symmetrization and contouring of the nasal bones were greatly facilitated by the use of new piezoelectric instrumentation (differential osteotomies and osteoplastic maneuvers performed with ultrasonic tools).

At 24 months after surgery, the nasal pyramid appears straight, regular, and natural in appearance. Nasal breathing is fully restored.
It is evident that the symmetry of the tip is provided essentially by a septum that has been realigned and repositioned in the midline.
The small scars at the base of the two nasal alae (wedge resection) performed to reduce the width of the nasal base are not visible.
In the three-quarter views, the proportions appear balanced.
In the two profile views, the overprojection and excessive rotation of the tip have been corrected, with a moderate reduction of excess projection. The nasolabial angle is also improved.

In the selective top views of the dorsum, full symmetry has been achieved.
