Description
This 37-year-old woman was bothered by a bump on her nose bridge, which developed after her child accidentally struck her nose. She was also bothered by a droopy tip, and felt this had gotten worse with age. She had a previous septoplasty many years ago, and wanted to improve her nose’s appearance and function. Facial plastic surgeon Dr. Inessa Fishman performed a revision septoplasty, preservation rhinoplasty, and cadaveric cartilage grafting to reconstruct the patient’s nose tip support and create a smooth and harmonious appearance to the nose and its bridge.
The patient is shown in her own “after” photo at just 10 days after surgery. While she still had moderate post-surgery swelling, her nose has already taken on a gorgeous and elegant shape, which will continue to thin and refine over the next 10-12 months. She loves her rhinoplasty result, saying she “obsessed with her nose and can’t stop taking pictures of it.”
