Grafting and nasal length/projection?

November 24, 2024
Asked By:jerseyyam in New York, New York

I had revision about 9 months ago to correct a problem with my bridge. The surgeon insisted on modifying the tip too, citing some asymmetry. In doing so, he also de-rotated a natural rotation in the tip, and lengthened it too, meaning it looks longer in profile. He used a "crushed cartilage onlay", which went over a small depression in the bottom of the tip. I am wondering if my nose would require de-projection, or if the graft can simply be removed (or both). Thanks
