Rhinoplasty Immediate Post-Operative Results

Immediately after a Revision Rhino-Septoplasty

This revision rhino-septoplasty procedure involved a subtle hump reduction, streamlined to the tip, where the middle third of the nose was reduced, the nasal tip was derotated, deprojected, and lengthened, and nostril show was also decreased. All this served to create a smooth, natural feminine contour.

Multiple cartilage and soft tissue grafts were used to strengthen nasal support, enhance contour, and improve airway function. The immediate post-operative result shows a more refined nasal shape with preserved natural proportions and improved structural support for better breathing and long-term stability.

Immediately after a Rhino-Septoplasty

This rhino-septoplasty procedure addressed both cosmetic refinement and nasal function. A streamlined profile was created with a reduction of the subtle hump and middle third of the nose. Also, a number of changes were performed to the nasal tip, which included tip deprojection, derotation, and lengthening.

All these changes served to improve the overall nasal definition and balance. Multiple cartilage and soft tissue grafts were used to strengthen nasal support, enhance contour, and improve airway function.
