Rhinoplasty #272

A 44-year-old gentleman is seen well over one year following both functional and cosmetic rhinoplasty surgery. Preoperatively, he did not like that his nose projected too far in profile, and he was unhappy with his profile bump. Additionally, he experienced nasal obstruction on both sides due to a severely deviated nasal septum and congenital weakness of both his internal and external nasal valves. In his 14-month postoperative photos, you can see a less projected nasal profile that blends naturally and maintains a masculine appearance, without signs of previous rhinoplasty surgery. His functional repair required septoplasty, lateral crural strut grafts, and bilateral spreader grafts. We are so grateful that he has allowed us to share his photographs, and his nasal airway is now breathing perfectly.
