Nasal tip
Tip surgery is now a support problem rather than a sculpting problem: the septal extension graft holds projection and rotation where the columellar strut loses them (0.2% against 4.7% projection loss at one year), and the current series repair, reposition and reinforce the lower lateral cartilages instead of excising them.
Adolescent and aging nose
The same operation is a different problem at twelve and at seventy: in a child the fear is stunting a nose that has not finished growing, and in an older patient the nose has kept changing, dropping at the tip, thinning at the skin and weakening at the cartilage, until it blocks the airway.
