Cosmetic Rhinoplasty | Female, 20s
Goals: Create a softer, more feminine and balanced nose while maintaining a natural appearance that remained true to her identity. Her concerns included a prominent dorsal hump and a poorly defined nasal tip. The goal was not simply to make her nose smaller, but to improve facial harmony and allow her other features, particularly her eyes, to become more prominent.
Procedure: Open rhinoplasty with dorsal hump reduction, spreader grafts to create smooth dorsal lines, internal osteotomies to narrow and refine the nasal bones, and tip reconstruction with narrowing, rim grafts and controlled rotation.
Outcome: A softer, more refined nose with a smooth bridge, improved tip definition, and better overall facial balance. The nose complements rather than dominates her face, allowing greater attention to her eyes and other facial features while still looking naturally like her.
Key Principle: Feminine rhinoplasty requires careful control of tip definition and rotation. The goal is enough rotation and refinement to create a softer, more feminine appearance without over-rotating the tip or creating an obviously operated nose.
