Improvement of a Male Profile with Rhinoplasty*

For many patients, their profile is often the area of greatest concern when it comes to rhinoplasty. In performing the procedure, Dr. Khorsandi reduced the hump with a tool called a nasal rasp and another device called an osteotome. The portion of cartilage that makes up the dorsal hump is precisely trimmed with surgical dissection scissors specially made for this one maneuver. The science of rhinoplasty comes down to not only having experience, but having the right tools for every step of the procedure.
