Rhinoplasty Case #1720

This is a healthy, 18-year old patient who presented for cosmetic rhinoplasty and breathing trouble. Her dorsal hump and tip droop were most bothersome. She underwent a primary, open septorhinoplasty. Her hump was reduced and the tip lifted as well as refined. Her breathing was substantially improved. At 1 year post-operative, she loves her nose and better breathing.

1. The nose has been straightened and the tip lifted as well as refined.
2. Notice the significant hump reduction and downsizing of the nose to create better facial harmony.
3. The significant dorsal hump has been reduced and the tip has been lifted as well as refined. The upper lip is also more relaxed.
4. The symmetry of the base is maintained and the columellar incision is hardly noticeable.
