Patient's 3 Story: A rhinoplasty and septoplasty was performed on this 19 year old college student with a history of nasal trauma. Surgical correction of her deviated nose, dorsal hump and bulbous tip was performed. These procedures resulted in a straight nose, a smooth flat nasal dorsum, better tip projection and definition and an overall beautiful result.

Difficult primary rhinoplasty for a patient with previous nasal trauma, severe deviation and breathing problems. Bilateral spreader grafts, onlay grafts, tip graft, bilateral lateral crural strut grafts, and septoplasty.

Post-Op Female Rhinoplasty and Septoplasty

This patient says she has difficulty breathing due to a deviated septum. The doctor preformed an external primary rhinoplasty with septoplasty 1 month ago. Her swelling will continue to subside over the next year.

Septorhinoplasty with Alar Base Reduction

A doctorpresents a patient with a deviated nose where an advanced technique was utilized called an extracorporeal septoplasty. In this technique the entire septum is removed and reconstructed to help provide for the best improvement in the deviation of the nose.

Shown immediately after a Rhinoplasty this patient had a profile reduction and tip refinement. Soft tissue grafts and multiple cartilage grafts were utilized to provide the stability and structure required to maintain the long-term appearance of the nose.

Rhinoplasty: 1 year postop.  This young lady wanted a narrower nose with a natural upturned tip that didn't droop when she smiled.  Key maneuvers included a component hump reduction, reverse angulated caudal septal trim, tip deprojection, and lateral osteotomies with significant infracturing.   Multiple grafts were used including a columellar strut graft, spreader grafts, alar contour grafts, and a mastoid fascia tip graft, to help provide long-term stability and structure to maintain the aesthetic and functional goals...

I'm happy to share this young woman's 2 year results following a Revision Rhinoplasty and Septoplasty.  The nose is narrowed overall but a natural, non-pinched, result is maintained.  A subtle dorsal hump reduction and tip refinement were also performed.People always ask about the recovery time following a Rhinoplasty.  It takes time for the swelling to come down and so I always try to share the immediate postop photos from the operating room (OR) with my patients to allow them to get an idea of their final results and have something to look forward to while the swelling improves over time.  The OR photos are in the last pic and you can see how similar they are to the long term results... 75% of the swelling comes down after a month while the rest takes a year to a year and half.  To accelerate the swelling resolution,  I see patients in the office every 2-3 months for steroid injections to the nose, especially the tip, to further help with recovery time...Full views of this patient's final results are shown.  Also notice how the tip stays in the good position even when smiling.Please look at the scar from the worm's eye view (taken from below the patient).  I always try to create a surgical scar that is almost invisible.The overall goal is to always maintain a natural result... The standard key maneuvers included a component hump reduction, reverse angulated caudal septal trim, and tip deprojection.  Multiple grafts were used including a columellar strut graft, spreader grafts, alar contour grafts, and a mastoid fascia tip graft.  All this was done to help provide long-term stability and structure to maintain the aesthetic and functional goals...

Im happy to share this young ladys 9 month results following her Rhinoplasty and Septoplasty.Full views are shown. Please notice the almost invisible incision in the columella in the worms eye view (when she looks up), how the tip stays in the perfectposition even when smiling, and how the tip closely resembles the initial postoperative results in the operating room (in the final photo).It takes 12-18 months for all the nose swelling to come down, during which time I see patients in the office every 2-3 months for steroid injections to accelerate the swelling resolution. The overall goal is to always maintain a natural result. Key maneuvers included a component hump reduction, reverse angulated caudal septal trim, tip deprojection with a columellar strut graft, spreader grafts, alar contour grafts, and a mastoid fascia tip graft  the multiple cartilage grafts were used to help provide long-term stability and structure to maintain the aesthetic and functional goals.

Check out these Transformational Results!So What is Septorhinoplasty?A septorhinoplasty is a procedure performed to improve the appearance of the nose (Rhinoplasty) as well as funtionality of the nose and/or how you breathe through your nose (Septoplasty). This dual-part procedure involves operating on both the bones and cartilage in order to give the nose its shape/structure and straightening the septum.

Great results from our patients journey. Transformation through Rhinoplasty/Septoplasty by Dr James Marotta

Procedure: Rhinoplasty, SeptoplastyBefore: the surgical plan was as follows: .- Increase tip projection .- Increase tip rotation.- Shorten the nose .- Narrow the tip .- Create supra tip break After: Post op Assessment addressed:.- Nasal hump.- Desires cosmetic change.- Bulbous tip.- Hanging columella 6 months later the scars are healed, good nasal contours, and septum midline.

After two broken noses, Dr. Marotta repaired this patient's nose with Inferior Turbinate Reduction, Repair of the Nasovestibular Stenosis, Rhinoplasty and Septoplasty.6 month follow up, these results are amazing.His nasal contour profile is straight, good nasal midline, and he has a natural appearance which compliments his entire facial profile.

Upon examination, Dr. Marotta determined that she required septoplasty, turbinate reduction, and repair of nasovestibular stenosis to open up her airway and improve her breathing. It was discussed that at the same time he would perform a cosmetic rhinoplasty to make the esthetic improvements she desired. It is very common for patients to elect to have cosmetic changes made at the time of a medically necessary procedure as it allows for one recovery and delivers the most comprehensive results.

Just 1 year ago, this patient was wondering what it would be like to make her nose straighter and her profile more balanced. With Dr. Marottas help.Surgeon: Dr James MarottaProcedure: Septorhinoplasty & Chin Implant1 year post-op
