Surgical management of the boxy tip.

نویسنده

  • Norman Pastorek
چکیده

The author uses a dome-binding suture to reform the heavy appearance of the boxy nasal tip by reshaping the convex lower lateral cartilage into a more refined concave shape. This procedure is performed with a straight needle and permanent suture, undermining of dome mucosa, meticulous contamination prevention, and incremental lowering of the unitized dome height for tip refinement.
