Nasal Tip Overprojection

Abstract: Objectives: To discuss the evaluation of the overprojected nasal tip, present an algorithm of various treatments for deprojection of the nasal tip, and introduce our experience of greater than 10 years with medial crural overlay.Design: Retrospective review of a large sequential series of patients undergoing rhinoplasty who were treated with various deprojection techniques by the senior author (R.W.H.K.) from January 1, 1991, through December 31, 2002. Patients underwent preoperative and postoperative evaluati… Show more

“…24,38 True tip overprojection is caused by long crura, a prominent anterior nasal spine, septal hypertrophy, or soft tissue. 37,39 Long medial crura often impart long narrow nares, thin alar rims, and a narrow columella. 40 Long lateral crura may result in a ptotic and underrotated tip.…”

“…The cause is typically multifactorial. 39 When planning for tip deprojection, it is important to understand the four primary tip support structures outlined by Janeke and Wright. 37,41 These include the piriform attachments to the lateral crura, scroll ligaments, interdomal ligaments, and septal attachments to the medial crura.…”

“…The amphas (horizontal plane) and profile view are important to show the irregularities of the nasal dorsum (dorsal hump), nasal length, nasofrontal angle, naso-facial angle, nasolabial angle [17], [18] (Figure 3). [19] The nasal skin is very important because the thick skin can cause more postoperative oedema and scarring, and less refinement is noticeable. Thin skin is more predictable healing, but less forgiving of minor asymmetries.…”

“…15,[28][29][30] The alar cartilages themselves are primarily responsible for tip projection, as they not only protrude from the underlying bony framework but also abut the upper lateral cartilages and nasal septum.…”

“…15,39 Decreasing nasal projection in these patients may lead to worsening of facial and nasal harmony, underscoring the importance of appropriate analysis and diagnosis. Deviation from normal ideals of facial proportions or subunits may erroneously produce the illusion of nasal overprojection.…”
