Due to trauma in which my nasal tip was hit very hard it seems this has caused its detachment from essential areas for support and has made the bridge/middle vault cartilage collapse. How can this be fixed? Its made for not only breathing obstruction but also a great deformity as its become very disharmonious with my face. Is it possible to build the bridge up with grafts while also reattaching/refining the tip to how it was before? Thank you.
