    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Facial Aesthetics
    • Rhinology

    Background:

    • A prominent nasal spine is an uncommon finding.
    • This anatomical variation can lead to undesirable septolabial and columella-alar angles.
    • These aesthetic disharmonies detract from the overall facial appearance.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the aesthetic implications of a prominent nasal spine.
    • To emphasize the importance of recognizing and correcting this nasal deformity.
    • To guide surgical approaches for nasal spine reduction.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of relevant anatomical and surgical literature.
    • Analysis of aesthetic principles related to the nasal base.
    • Discussion of surgical techniques for nasal spine modification.

    Main Results:

    • A prominent nasal spine directly influences septolabial and columella-alar aesthetics.
    • Subtle cases may require careful evaluation for surgical intervention.
    • Resection must be conservative to avoid complications.

    Conclusions:

    • Correction of a prominent nasal spine can significantly enhance facial aesthetics.
    • A conservative surgical approach is crucial for optimal outcomes.
    • Recognizing this deformity is key for plastic surgeons and rhinologists.
