What grafts are required to increase projection and length in a revision rhinoplasty, and is this possible? (photos)

June 21, 2016
Asked By:bobinhood in Iowa City, IA

I really wanted a subtle result, like the computer image I made, but my actual result changed my upper lip and my nose also looks too short for my face now. My septum was shortened and my nose was deprojected and I think this caused the upper lip change. I liked my upper lip angle better before and I used to have more tooth show. Can a septal extension graft restore my original nasolabial angle and lengthen and project my nose to look like computer image?
