Surgical correction of nose deformities also known as the “Nose Job” requires expertise and experience. The surgeons estimate the type of defect - either excess or deficit of the height, deviations, depressions, slants and abnormally angled noses. The patient’s expectation of his/her nose is understood after careful examination.
Shown is a case with deficiency of the bridge portion of nose. Note the midlevel of the nasal bone, where there is a deficiency creating a huge impact on the patient’s facial profile. This gives the nose a saddle-shape. Maxillofacial Surgeon Dr. S. M. Balaji planned a closed rhinoplasty technique wherein the surgical approach is through the nose to prevent unsightly scars.
Appropriate measurement of nose was made and the amount of augmentation needed was noted. Autologous graft (rib graft) was harvested, shaped and positioned to improve the aesthetics of the nose. The patient was very happy with the surgery outcome and his enhanced appearance.
