Patient is a 17-year-old female who desired a smaller, perkier, and more feminine nose. She did not like the bump on her profile, and wanted her nose to appear more narrow with a more refined nasal tip.

Rhinoplasty with septoplasty, reduction of nasal bone width with nasal hump reduction, and refinement of nasal tip cartilages through suture techniques supported with internal cartilage grafts for long-term stability.

Patient 41

Patient is a 20-year old female with a long-standing desire to have a more defined and feminine appearing nose. She is of rather exotic descent, both Irish and Italian, and embraced her “look” but wanted to refine it. She has very thick skin and understood this affects the definition that is possible with her cosmetic result. Specifically, she wanted to soften her bump while making the entire nose look thinner with better angularity. She felt that her nasal tip and nostrils were too wide, and wanted a “perkier” nasal tip that did not go down when she smiled.

Procedure: Rhinoplasty Septoplasty with reduction of nasal bump and narrowing and contouring of nasal bones to created elegant dorsal aesthetic lines. Due to her very thick skin, cartilage grafts were used to provide internal support to the nasal tip, allowing it to be reshaped, shortened, and rotated in a predictable fashion. Lastly, her nostrils were shortened, rotated, and made more symmetric to complete her nasal surgery. She was ecstatic with her result.

Patient 42

Patient is a 17-year-old female who came down from Alaska for a Rhinoplasty after submitting photographs online. Specifically, she did not like her wide and asymmetric appearing nose that gave her a more masculine appearance to her otherwise feminine facial features. She disliked her low-hanging columella that became more evident upon smiling, for which she was increasingly conscious about. She yearned for a smaller, straighter, and softer appearing nose that would better complement her facial features.

Rhinoplasty with Septoplasty and straightening and reduction of her nasal septum and nasal bones along with contouring of the nasal tip through cartilage reduction and suture techniques. Her columella was reduced in order to shorten her nose and improve her nasolabial angle, evident by better visualization of her upper lip giving better proportion to her facial features.

Patient 43

Patient is a 25-year-old medical professional with a long-standing desire for a more attractive nose that would better complement her facial features. Specifically, she did not like her profile with the prominent take off below her forehead that produced a harsh appearance. She wanted to reduce her dorsal hump, and refine her bulbous nasal tip and elongated nostrils that she felt she inherited from her father. She wanted a more feminine and “perky” nasal tip that she illustrated in her pre-operative photograph research.

Rhinoplasty with Septoplasty and straightening and reduction of nasal septum and nasal bones with reduction of nasal dorsum. She also underwent contouring and refinement of her nasal tip with calculated rotation to achieve the outcome she desired. A fascial graft was placed at the nasal radix at the top of the nose to soften the interface between the forehead and nose, improving her profile.

Patient 44

Patient is a 17-year-old female who desired a nose that appeared more feminine and more narrow with a tip that appeared less bulbous and more proportioned. She especially disliked how the columella hung low and that her nose pointed down when she smiled. She desired nostrils that appeared less prominent and symmetric.

Patient 45

Patient is a 27-year-old female who, for as long as she could remember, had been defined by her nose. She desires a softer and more feminine nose with a delicate tip and elegant profile.

Rhinoplasty with Septoplasty with straightening of deviated nasal septum and reduction of prominent dorsal hump. Her nasal tip was softened through suture techniques, and rotated by strategic placement of a cartilage graft that also served to accentuate her dorsal aesthetic lines. Notice how rotation and shortening of her nasal tip highlights her other facial features, and makes her lips appear more proportioned with the rest of her face. She said she feels beautiful. Photos were taken 5 weeks after surgery, relatively soon after her procedure and nose will significantly improve in appearance over the next 11 months.

Patient 46

Patient is a 28 year-old-hispanic female who had a long-standing desire to have a perkier and more feminine appearing nose. Specifically, she did not like the bump on her nose or her wide asymmetric nasal tip and nostrils that droop when she smiles.

Procedure: Rhino/Septoplasty with reduction of nasal hump, narrowing of nasal bones and reorientation of nasal tip cartilages through both excisional and suture contouring techniques. A supporting cartilaginous strut was placed to maintain long-term tip elevation to achieve the “perky tip” she desired, along with nostril narrowing to complete her rhinoplasty. Cartilage structural support and tissue undermining were keys to predictably and successfully reducing her overall nasal size. She was extremely with her surgical result.

Patient 47

Patient is a 32-year-old female with a long standing desire to correct a severely deviated nose. For as long as she can remember, she has been self conscious of her crooked nose, and hated her nasal profile and weak chin. She has always dreamed of feeling more attractive, and would like to breathe better. She would have addressed these issues at an earlier age, but was always afraid of the rhinoplasty results she has seen, as she felt that they looked very odd and surgical in appearance.

Rhinoplasty with septoplasty to correct the nasal deviation, reduction of nasal dorsal hump, straightening and narrowing of nasal bones, contouring of the nasal tip cartilages with placement of a cartilage tip graft to increase nasal projection, placement of a medium chin implant and liposuction of the submental and neck for a total of 40cc, and autogenous fat transfer to the upper and lower lips for a total of 8cc. The patient was ecstatic with the results with a renewed sense of confidence about her appearance.

Patient 49

Patient is a 27 year-old-female with a long-standing desire to improve the cosmetic appearance of her nose. Specifically, she did not like how her nose appeared very asymmetric and deviated to the right side of her face, and wanted a less pointy and projecting nasal tip. She avoided having her photo taken especially in profile, and had longed for a more feminine and softer appearing nose that more complemented her facial features.

Rhinoplasty with septoplasty and placement of cartilage grafts to reinforce the new midline position of her septum and nasal bones and enhance her dorsal aesthetic lines. She also underwent contouring of the nasal tip cartilages and reduction of the tip projection. She was ecstatic with the result, and loves her new nose.

Patient 50

20-year-old female who has been self-conscious about her nose since she can remember. She avoids taking photographs and yearns for a more attractive nose that would help her feel pretty. She would love a more refined nasal profile and tip.

Patient 51

Patient is a 24-year-old female who is active in the performing arts as an actress. For years she had considered having a rhinoplasty, but was concerned that she would lose her facial “character”. We met multiple times regarding what she desired, went over computer imaging of what I proposed, and she provided examples of noses she liked from magazines so I could decipher what she felt was attractive. We decided since she is tall (5’10”) we would not make her nose too small, just refined and straighter with removal of the large dorsal hump to improve her profile, something she has been self-conscious about since she can remember.

Rhinoplasty with septoplasty to straighten the foundation of her nose. She also underwent removal of the large dorsal hump and contouring of her nasal tip cartilages. Nostrils were also adjusted to provide further aesthetic balance. She was ecstatic with the result.

Patient 52

This patient is a 31-year-old female who had a crooked nose with a prominent hump that she wanted straightened and softened. She had been thinking about having her nose done for years but had hesitated as she knew exactly what she desired and had not found the right surgeon. She was interested in our office after reviewing the gallery photos multiple times, and liked the fact that imaging is performed pre-operatively with review of photographs of examples of noses that patients think are attractive. After her consultation she excitedly booked her surgery.

Rhinoplasty with Septoplasty with straightening of both nasal septum and nasal bones, reduction of nasal dorsal hump, and contouring of nasal tip cartilages through suture techniques with rotation of nasal tip complex to match the tip “perkiness” she specifically desired pre-operatively. She is extremely happy with her rhinoplasty result at only one month post-op.

Patient 53

Patient is a 23-year-old female who was referred to our office from another rhinoplasty patient who was thrilled with her surgical results.

Her nasal bones were narrowed with creation of dorsal aesthetic lines, and the nasal tip was contoured and narrowed through suture techniques. She is extremely happy with the result of her surgery with an incredible boost to her self-esteem. She is photographed at 7 months post-op.

Patient 58

Patient is a 24-year-old female who wants a softer, more feminine appearing nose. She feels that she was lucky enough to inherit her mother’s cheekbones and lips, but she also got her father’s family nose which consists of a mild dorsal hump, and a bulbous and over-projecting nasal tip. She desires a more attractive nose that better complements and accentuates her facial features.

Rhinoplasty with nasal hump reduction, narrowing of the nasal bones, and contouring of nasal tip cartilages with lessening of the nasal tip projection.

Patient 59

Patient is a 30 year-old female who underwent a previous rhinoplasty and was unhappy with the appearance of her nose. She felt that her nose did not appear symmetric, and was disappointed with her bulky and down-turned nasal tip. She desired a model’s nose with a more elegant profile and delicate tip that better complemented and accentuated her facial features.

This patient had a classic “polybeak deformity” after her previous rhinoplasty. This is due to formation of excess scar tissue at the nasal tip, and often over reduction of cartilages without adequate support. She underwent Secondary Rhinoplasty with narrowing of nasal bones and contouring of nasal tip with placement of cartilage grafts to the mid-nasal vault, cartilage support of the nasal tip, and cartilage tip graft all from ear donor sites. Note that she now has beautiful dorsal aesthetic lines with narrower nasal bones, and a delicate model-like nasal tip that appears more feminine and refined. She was delighted with her rhinoplasty result.
