Markings tell the whole story before we even begin. โ๏ธ
For this case, we planned a tip-plasty, alarplasty, AND a nasolabial graft. A combined approach to lift and reduce the size of the tip while keeping everything proportional and natural. ๐
Here's what the markings show:
โณ The nasolabial + columellar area, where we place a combined strut to provide structural lift from the inside
โณ The lower lateral cartilage, where we remove the cephalic portion (and some soft tissue) to refine the bulbosity of the tip
โณ The alar markings for a clean, balanced reduction
One month later, she's healing amazingly and has a little swelling on the tip. ๐๐ฝ
