This women had a prior rhinoplasty with significant deformities of the tip and nostrils. She desired improvements. She underwent revision surgery with focus on correcting prior damage to the lower lateral cartilages. Rib cartilage grafts were used to rebuild these important structures that are important for nasal shape and function. The post op photos are from a relatively close follow up time, thus edema (swelling) is still present. Nonetheless, the progress made in surgery is evident in the tip, nostrils, and elsewhere.
