Rhinoplasty Before & After Case 209

This patient came to us seeking rhinoplasty because she felt her nose was too sharp and pointy for her features. She was happy with the appearance of her nose from the front but was self-conscious about her side profile. During our initial consultation, she explained her desire for a softer and more balanced appearance.

We discussed her goals and reviewed her nasal anatomy. On exam, we found her nose was overprojected with a slightly irregular dorsum and fullness at the anterior septal angle. Together, we designed a surgical plan to address these concerns. Our aim was to create a refined profile view while maintaining the natural character of her nose.

Her rhinoplasty involved careful adjustments to the nasal tip and dorsum. We reduced projection and smoothed the contour to harmonize with her facial features. The recovery process went smoothly. At her follow-up visits, we were pleased to see a softer side profile that better fits her personal aesthetic.
