Tip rhinoplasty risks versus full rhinoplasty risks?

May 29, 2017
Asked By:posh_hills_123 in Sanger, California

Does having a tip only rhinoplasty (no osteotomies, spreader grafts, etc.) with a columellar strut have less risk of complications or unsatisfactory results during the years following rhinoplasty? Or are the risks (such as droopy tip, crooked tip, uneven nostrils, etc.) the same as for a full rhinoplasty (with osteotomies, spreader grafts, etc.)? Are there any fewer risks with tip only rhinoplasty compared to a "full rhinoplasty"?
