Dorsal hump, asymmetric dorsum, broad tip, counter-rotated tip
History
A 29-year-old woman complained of nasal airway obstruction and desired correction of her bulbous and over-projected tip and removal of her dorsal hump (Fig. 3.1A–H).

Analysis of Preoperative Photos
Dorsal hump. Tip is counter-rotated and over-projected, which causes the nose to appear excessively long. The excessive convexity of the lateral crura contributes to a bulbous tip and external valve collapse where the lateral crura meet the accessory cartilages.
Interval from Surgery to Postoperative Photos
1 year
