A 22 year old girl reported to our hospital wanting to correct her nose profile which was very broad and flat to her face and ill-defined dorsum gave her more aged appearance. On addition her prominent upper jaw on side view gave unsightly appearance. Due to her defective nose profile and disproportionate jaw alignment she was very self conscious about her appearance.
Maxillofacial Surgeon Dr. S. M. Balaji skillfully planned to correct her nose by following Augmentation Rhinoplasty technique. Costochondral graft was harvested from the ribs, shaped and used to reconstruct the nose to increase the height. Thus proper shape of the nose was achieved. Maxillary prominence was also corrected by following Lefort I osteotomy. Entire nose correction was made within the nose (closed rhinoplasty technique); there are no scars on the face. Results are immediate and the patient was very happy to see her enhanced profile of the nose without any scars. This dramatically improved her appearance and self confidence.
