A 26-year-old girl reported to our hospital seeking to correct the appearance of her nose. Her nose was much flat and she wanted to have a sharp nose to improve her appearance.
Maxillofacial surgeon Dr. S. M. Balaji expertly performed the augmentation rhinoplasty. A costochondral cartilage graft was harvested and used to reconstruct the depressed dorsum of the nose. The surgery was done from inside the nose (closed rhinoplasty) so there is no scarring. The patient is very happy to have a sharp, defined & pristine nose immediately after surgery, which improved her appearance. 

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 of a deficiency of the bridge portion of nose with bulky tip. 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. Bulky tip of the nose was also corrected intranasally by removing excessively curved lower lateral nasal septal cartilage. The patient was very happy with the surgery outcome and her enhanced appearance.
