Rhinoplasty Refinements: Addressing the Deviated, Overprojected Nose

Rod J. Rohrich, R. Raja Shanmugakrishnan, Raja Mohan

Abstract

Deprojection of an overprojected nose and correction of an infralobular deformity are very challenging for rhinoplasty surgeons because a systematic approach is needed to correct these problems. A deviated nose with a dorsal hump is a common deformity that is best treated using septal reconstruction and the component dorsal hump reduction technique using an open rhinoplasty approach. This article and its videos show how to correct a deviated nose with overprojection and a dorsal hump deformity.
