A nasal tip lift operation is performed in order to achieve the desired nose structure of the patient. It is a risk-free operation and is performed based on patient requests.
What is Nose Tip Lift Operation? Who can be a candidate for this procedure?
Nasal surgery called rhinoplasty, which is performed only for the tip of the nose, is called nasal tip operation or mini rhinoplasty. The aim of the surgery is to lift the tip of the nose or to bring the tip of the nose to the form desired by the patient. The operation can be applied to all patients whose nasal structure is suitable for nasal tip lifting. In the nasal tip lift procedure, deformities or problems in the bone structure of the nose are not intervened in accordance with the nature of the operation. Nasal tip lift is not recommended for those with an arched structure in the nasal bone, curvature and those with a wider nasal bone than normal.
Why is Nose Tip Lift Surgery Performed? What are the Advantages?
Nasal tip lift surgery is performed to lift the tip of the nose, to eliminate the appearance of excess skin on the tip of the nose, and to balance the shape and proportion disorders. With the help of this operation, the patient's elevated nasal tips are brought down, giving them a more natural appearance. The main advantages of the surgery are as follows:
- Low or wide nose tip is eliminated,
- The asymmetry between the nostrils is restored to a symmetrical appearance,
