Rhinoplasty Patient – Chicago, IL
This young woman, dissatisfied with the proportions of her nose, sought a transformation that would enhance her features while preserving her inherent identity. Her desire was for a “cuter” and more “petite” nose, a subtle refinement rather than a drastic alteration. After thorough research, she discovered Dr. Dorafshar, whose expertise aligned with her aesthetic aspirations.
Following multiple comprehensive consultations, Dr. Dorafshar meticulously addressed her concerns and ensured a clear understanding of her expectations. These in-depth discussions were crucial in establishing a shared vision for the surgical outcome. Subsequently, an open rhinoplasty was performed, a highly effective technique that allows for precise and comprehensive reshaping of the nasal structure.
During the procedure, Dr. Dorafshar meticulously addressed the dorsal hump, carefully reducing its prominence to create a smoother, more elegant nasal bridge. Employing a sophisticated combination of meticulously sculpted cartilage grafts and sutures, the nasal tip was artfully elevated, contributing to a more refined and lifted appearance. A delicate supratip break was meticulously crafted, adding a subtle, aesthetically pleasing indentation that defines the transition between the nasal bridge and the tip. Furthermore, the nasal alar was refined and made smaller through expertly executed Weir alar base excisions, harmonizing the overall width of the nose with her facial features.
The patient is profoundly delighted with the results of her rhinoplasty. She expresses immense satisfaction that her distinct facial appearance has been preserved, yet now complemented by a nose that is undeniably smaller and more petite, perfectly aligning with her initial vision. The transformation has not only enhanced her physical appearance but also significantly boosted her self-confidence, confirming the success of both the surgical intervention and the collaborative process.
