Patient with advanced nasal septum deviation and nose tip droop underwent open technique septoplasty operation and nose tip lifting. In fact, the curved cartilaginous areas of the nasal septum are already removed during surgery and we use these cartilages to form the nasal tip support, allowing the tip of the nose to move forward and slightly upward. The advantages of applying the two processes in the same way are as follows at the same time, some of these cartilages are also used for nasal lift, ie, the patient's own tissue is repositioned, while the curved septum cartilage covering the airways in the nose is removed.
In patients with droopy nose tip, more narrowing occurs normally in the nasal valve area, the narrowest airway region of the nose. Permanently lifting the tip of the nose in this manner provides a permanent expansion of the nasal airways and an increase in the angle of the nasal valve
A Turkish expression used here as "killing two birds with one stone" is to gain more than one profit with one transaction. Cartilage areas excised from the patient's own nasal septum and narrowing the patient's airway are used as a graft in the sense that the patient's nose tip is lifted at the same time, the nasal valve angle is increased, and the patient gains more than one benefit at the same time. The cartilage tissue used here has already been removed from the curvature of the patient's nasal septum and narrowing of the airway. These cartilage pieces are placed back into the patient's own nose.

Nasal tip lifting techniques can be planned according to the patients. Generally, I prefer to operate in the form of open technique nose type plasty. Regarding this issue, you can search by typing "nose tip lifting" in the search box section above.
Patient 2
We performed the Nose Tip Lifting Operation operation on the patient who complained of nasal congestion and sagging at the tip of the nose. Since the shape change of the patient's nasal tip was not desired, no other procedure was performed. Below you can see the photos and videos before and after the operation
