Facial Surgery Case 49

This is a 44 year old male from the Chandler, Arizona area who came to my Scottsdale, Arizona area medical practice with interest in a rhinoplasty surgery (nose reshaping).  This patient had fractured his nose when he was a teenager, and was unhappy with the drooping tip and the dorsal hump. 

On evaluation of this patient, I felt that the majority of his issue was the tip of the nose, which needed to be rotated upward into a more natural position.  This, in combination with a hump reduction by filing down the bone, would give him a much more fitting nose for his face.  I also recommended a chin implant in order to balance his lower face with his mid-face, which would give him a stronger, more masculine appearance.  My goal was to maintain a very natural appearance that would not make this patient look like a different person.

I performed a rhinoplasty during which I rotated his nasal tip up and refined the appearance of the tip, filed down the hump, and narrowed the nose slightly.  I also placed a medium sized extended anatomical chin implant through a small incision inder the chin.

The postoperative photos show this patient only 5 days after his surgery.  He was extremely happy with the refinements to his face.  He had a subtle but elegant improvement to his profile and to the overall appearance of his face.
