Tip plasty, also known as tip rhinoplasty, is a surgical procedure that focuses on altering the shape or size of the nasal tip. It is a common component of rhinoplasty, a cosmetic surgery that aims to improve the appearance and functionality of the nose.
Dr. Benjamin C. Stong is a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon at Kalos Facial Plastic Surgery, LLC, in Atlanta who can perform a tip rhinoplasty to address a variety of concerns, such as refining the tip shape, correcting asymmetry, reducing or increasing tip projection and improving overall nasal balance.
Are You Unhappy with the Appearance of Your Nasal Tip?
The procedure is often sought by individuals who are dissatisfied with the appearance of their nasal tips. Some may feel that their nasal tips are too bulbous, droopy or wide, while others may desire more definition or refinement. Tip plasty allows for targeted modifications to achieve the desired aesthetic outcome while preserving the natural character of the nose.
During a tip plasty procedure, Dr. Stong may employ various techniques, depending on the specific goals of the patient. These techniques may involve:
- Reshaping the cartilage
- Adjusting the nasal tip angle
- Refining the nasal tip definition
- Addressing any asymmetry
In some cases, cartilage grafts or sutures may be used to achieve the desired structural changes.
