Cosmetic Nose (Rhinoplasty)

This 26 year-old female was unhappy with the appearance of her nose. In addition to her nose being “crooked”, she felt that her nostrils were very flared. She also found it very difficult to breathe through her nose, experiencing chronic stuffiness and nasal dripping. Her before photos show a large hump and a deviation to the right side. Several procedures to improve her breathing were performed (septoplasty and inferior turbinectomy). In addition, a cosmetic rhinoplasty was performed to completely reshape her nasal profile to match her facial proportion. In addition, the excess nostril tissue was trimmed to create proportion. Her postoperative photo is shown at 1 year.
