Can you reshape a bulbous nose tip with ultrasonic rhinoplasty or do you always need a graft?

November 1, 2020
Asked By:DanaScully88

I see before/after rhinoplasty pictures and the tip always looks nice and lifted. Are you able to accomplish this without a graft? I'm scared of getting a graft because I've heard it can warp/move. Also, does ultrasonic rhinoplasty lessen the risk of developing a pollybeak deformity? If not, what can a surgeon do to prevent this from happening in a thick-skinned individual? And, Does ultrasonic rhinoplasty lessen the need for steroid injections? I've heard that thick-skinned individuals need steroid injections to lessen edema.
