This patient in her 30s sought primary rhinoplasty to refine a wide, bulbous tip while preserving nasal structure and function.

PAtient:

Female in her 30’s

Concern:

Wide, bulbous nasal tip with thick skin, raising concerns about balance and natural definition.

GOAL:

To refine the nasal tip for improved harmony and balance without causing unnatural narrowing or breathing issues.

Primary rhinoplasty was performed using structural techniques instead of reductive methods, preserving nasal valve function while achieving a more defined tip.

OUTCOME:

At 6 months postop, the patient shows a narrower, naturally balanced nasal tip that complements her overall facial features.

This woman in her 30’s presented for primary rhinoplasty for a wide, somewhat bulbous nasal tip, in the setting of thick nasal skin.  Instead of performing a reductive procedure to narrow the nose, structural techniques were performed to prevent unnatural narrowing or nasal valve problems. We were able to achieve a narrower and more natural appearing nasal tip that improves facial balance and harmony.  Postop images from 6 months postop.
