Is It Possible to Lower Your Columella Wih a Cartilage Graft?

It is accurate that cartilage grafts can lower columella and correct a retracted columella.  The cartilage may have to come from places other than the nose

A retracted columella can be lowered using grafting techniques. You would need to discuss how far down you want the columella to go with your surgeon but it certainly is possible to change.

Altering a columella is a standard rhinoplasty maneuver.  A surgeon can either use a columellar-extension graft, which is a larger piece of cartilage sewn directly to the septum.  Or, the surgeon can use a crushed cartilage plumping graft, which can easily be placed in the office under local anestheisa.  The technique utilized depends on the patient, the nose, the desired changes, and the surgeon's experience.
