Nasal Tip Reduction

This surgical procedure involves using sutures to bring together the alar cartilages, which form the structural framework of the lower half of the nose. This procedure can refine and elevate the nasal tip.

Procedure Details

We offer both the CLOSED method, which minimizes visible scarring, and the OPEN method, which allows for precise and comprehensive reshaping. A protective splint will be applied for approximately 3 to 7 days post-procedure.

Our Distinctive Approach

Each patient presents with unique nostril shapes and desired aesthetic outcomes. We conduct thorough consultations to meticulously design a shape that is perfectly tailored to each individual patient. For further refinement, we may combine techniques such as the Tardy method, cephalic trim method, and columellar strut method.

Follow-up Visits / Suture Removal

For the open approach, sutures are removed after 7 days. In some cases, a follow-up visit may be required after 3 days for splint removal.

Makeup

Makeup application is permitted from the day after suture removal, ensuring the wound area is avoided.

Bathing / Facial Cleansing

Showering and facial cleansing are permitted from the day of the procedure, provided care is taken to keep the wound and dressing dry. From the following day, the wound area may also be gently cleansed; however, the dressing must remain dry until further instructions are provided. Full bathing is permissible from the day after suture removal.

Risks / Potential Side Effects

Post-operative swelling, pain, bruising, infection, discomfort, nasal tip rotation (upward or downward), nasal congestion, pollybeak deformity, pinch nose deformity, perceived widening of the nasal base, nasal deviation, and internal nasal scarring.

Downtime

During the initial 2-3 days post-procedure, it is common to experience notable swelling, edema, and discomfort. Significant swelling generally resolves within 1-2 weeks.

Aftercare Instructions

On the morning following your procedure, minor nasal bleeding may occur. Gently blot any discharge with a clean gauze. It is crucial not to remove or disturb the dressing/fixation.

Patients Not Eligible for Treatment

Patients currently on anticoagulant therapy (blood thinners, depending on the specific type), individuals with severe diabetes, or those with a predisposition to keloid formation.
