Role of Derotation Suture in Bulbous Tip Correction in Asian Rhinoplasty
Kim YJ, Suh MK.
In the archive as a landmark paper: the core sweep runs 2011–2026, and this one is here because the history of rhinoplasty rests on it · cited on bulbous tip.
From the abstract
“In bulbous tip correction, consideration should be given to the presence of cephalic malposition of lower lateral cartilage as well as volume reduction. Derotation suture is a suture technique for tip lengthening but may contribute to bulbous tip correction through the caudal reposition of lower lateral cartilage.From…”

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.
Ethnic, Asian, Middle Eastern, African and Latino rhinoplasty
The nose in front of the surgeon decides the operation, not the patient's ancestry: skin thickness, cartilage strength and existing dorsal height set the limits of what any technique can deliver, and planning every nose toward one Caucasian ideal is the error the comparative data now names.
