Why is Nose Tip Aesthetics Performed?
Nasal tip aesthetics is performed to correct the shape and position of the nose tip, eliminate any drooping or upward tilt, and ensure it aligns harmoniously with the facial structure. In some cases, narrowed nostrils can result in breathing difficulties. Through this procedure, the size, angle, and shape of the nasal tip can be adjusted. Deformities from trauma and functional breathing issues can also be addressed.
Outcomes depend on factors such as bone and cartilage structure, skin thickness, age, and facial anatomy. A simple self-assessment using a mirror can help determine whether tip aesthetics is needed. If nostrils appear compressed and breathing problems such as snoring are present, it may be appropriate to consult a specialist.
Who Can Receive Tip Aesthetics?
Since the procedure is tailored to each person’s facial anatomy, patients must have completed their developmental phase—typically age 16 for females and 18 for males. The decision should be made independently, not under pressure from family.
By correcting the nasal tip and improving facial balance, the surgery enhances one’s appearance and self-confidence, contributing to a better social and psychological well-being.
Before Nose Tip Aesthetic Surgery
A strong doctor-patient relationship is key. During the initial consultation, your doctor will assess your expectations, examine your nasal structure, and discuss all potential outcomes. Elements such as cartilage structure, facial shape, skin thickness, and age will influence planning.
The risks, anaesthesia method, and surgical technique will be explained in detail. While excellent results can be achieved by experienced surgeons, inexpert hands can lead to complications. Therefore, surgical skill and precision are crucial.
Risks and Complications of Nose Tip Aesthetics
Complications are rare but treatable. These include bleeding, infection, and nasal congestion. Due to the high blood supply in the nose, some bleeding is expected, but serious blood loss is uncommon.
To reduce the risk of bleeding, medications like aspirin should be stopped at least seven days before surgery, under a doctor’s guidance.
Signs of infection include foul-smelling discharge, abnormal swelling, redness, or pain, and should be reported immediately.
