Procedure Details

This young woman demonstrates inadequate projection and rotation of her nasal tip. Achieving adequate projection was accomplished through the use of a cartilage strut, cartilage borrowed from her own nasal septum and placed within the columella to increase her projection. The nasal tip was rotated to soften her appearance in the profile and 3/4 view and better reveal her upper lip.
