    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Rhinoplasty Techniques

    Background:

    • Correction of a bulbous nasal tip presents significant surgical challenges.
    • Existing rhinoplasty techniques vary in addressing specific aesthetic concerns like wide intercrural angles and flared lateral crus, common in bulbous tips.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a novel surgical technique for the correction of bulbous nasal tips.
    • To evaluate the efficacy of this technique in a patient cohort.

    Main Methods:

    • The described technique involves specific modifications to the nasal rim and lateral crus based on skin thickness and tip projection.
    • Procedures include transection of the rim, partial rim resection, or resection of a portion of the arch without lining removal.
    • Individual segments can be resected for unilateral or asymmetrical deformities.

    Main Results:

    • The technique has been successfully applied to 44 patients over the past two years.
    • The described modifications effectively address the wide intercrural angle and flared lateral crus associated with bulbous nasal tips.

    Conclusions:

    • The presented surgical technique offers a viable and successful approach to correcting bulbous nasal tips.
    • This method provides specific, adaptable strategies for various presentations of bulbous nasal deformities.
