Case-2951 Case #3067

Before and 2 months after a reduction rhinoplasty to take care of a very long, droopy nose with a significant bump (dorsal hump) tip that was angled downward (ptotic) and bulbous. As can be seen from the tracing in pink, the plan was to create a much shorter nose with a narrower tip with a feminine amount of tip lifting (rotation).The tracing on the right is made from the preoperative computer imaging done during the consultation. Dr. Pontell creates this tracing which he uses as a guide during surgery to accomplish the patient’s goals. This allows Dr. Pontell to get as close to the desired result as possible. Please compare the desired profile in the tracing to the actual “after photo.”
