Medial Crural Septal Suture
Medial crural septal sutures can be placed aer all other tip-suturing techniques are performed, or concomitant with medial crural suturing when signicant tip rotation and repositioning is anticipated preoperatively. Medial crural septal su­tures secure the middle crura to the caudal septum and can be used to reduce or increase nasal tip projection, depending on the placement. If the medial crura are anchored to a more anterior position on the caudal septum, the tip will rotate in a cephalad direction and tip projection will increase.
Conversely, if the medial crura are xed to the more posterior portion of the caudal septum, tip projection will decrease. is can also result in tip derotation and reduction of the columellar-labial angle as well as the nasolabial angle. If un­due tension is placed on the medial crura at the anterocaudal septum position, columellar retraction may occur. As with the medial crural suture, preliminary needle xation will help facilitate proper suture placement.
e medial crural septal suture is oen indicated in the aging and drooping tip for its eects on tip rotation and projection.
Similar eects can be achieved by suturing the medial crura to a xed columel­lar strut gra or a septal extension gra.

is may be indicated when the cau dal septum is resected to rotate the tip, and suturing the medial crura to the new septal position will cause a retracted columella.

Invisible Tip Gras
Invisible tip gras are preferred over visible tip gras because visible gras can reabsorb, develop asymmetry, and/or become sharply angulated over the long term, necessitating revision.
Invisible tip gras, including the anatomic cap gra and morselized cartilage on lay gras, are used if a small degree of tip contouring or volume augmentation is desired aer tip suturing is completed. Cartilage resulting from the cephalic trim of the lower lateral cartilage can be used to fashion an anatomic cap gra. is cartilage gra is typically thin and pliable so it contours over the tip very well and it does not have any distinct edges, so palpability and/or visibility of the gra is not a problem. If the tip requires minimal augmentation or improvement of mild irregularities, morselized cartilage onlay gras can be placed. e cartilage is morselized in a cartilage crusher and can range from being slightly bruised (to make it less rigid and more conforming without sharp edges) to crushed into a thin sheet (which can act as scaolding for tissue ingrowth). Morselized carti­lage onlay gras can be used anywhere for augmentation or correction of mild irregularities.
Depressor Septi Nasi Muscle Surgery
In some patients, the depressor septi nasi muscle may decrease tip projection by pulling the tip caudally and posteriorly. Transnasal release or transoral dissection and transposition of the muscle is indicated when hyperdynamic nasal tip ptosis and underprojection are noted preoperatively. It is important to realize that in-

Lateral Crural Malposition
e lower lateral cartilage is the structural cornerstone for the alar rim and over­all tip support. However, it is the strength, anatomic positioning, and orientation of the lateral crus that are paramount to the location, contour, and stability of the ala. External valve collapse, notching, and retraction can all become apparent when the lateral crus is unable to provide proper support for nasal so tissues that become further stressed with inspiratory eort. If excessive lateral crural convexities or concavities are present but tip projection and balance have been achieved, alar contour gras or lateral crural strut gras can be used to provide support and to prevent future loss of alar rim integrity.
,
Alar Contour Gras
e alar contour gra provides a foundation for reestablishing a normally func­tioning external nasal valve and an aesthetically pleasing nasal tip and alar con­tours. e use of alar contour gras decreases the risk of alar deformities includ­ing alar notching or retraction, as well as excessive concavity or convexity of the alar rim.
Part Four e Tip458
https://t.me/medicina_free
e extended alar contour gra can inuence the rotational orientation of the lateral crus so that the caudal and cephalic borders are rotated into the same hori­zontal plane further inuencing the tip and alar contours. Alar contour gras are almost always placed at the end of the operation.
Lateral Crural Strut Gras
Lateral crural strut gras are commonly placed before tip modications, and before a columellar strut gra, to reorient and/or stabilize the alar arch. Added support to the nasal tip and alar arch is provided by lateral crura that lie in the same rotational plane with respect to their caudal and cephalic margins. When the caudal margin of the lateral crura is oriented below the cephalic mar­gin (lower lateral cartilage malposition), a parenthesis tip can result, which fre quently requires lateral crural repositioning with the use of a lateral crural strut gra (frequently with transection at the accessory chain) in addition to other tip-shaping techniques.

Final Assessment and Renement
e shape and projection of the nasal tip are critically assessed before and aer redraping the skin envelope. e balance between the nasal dorsum and the tip­dening points is scrutinized to control the supratip break and prevent a future pollybeak deformity. e tip-dening points should project approximately  to mm over the nasal dorsum in female patients. Asymmetry and/or contour deformities (visible and/or palpable) are corrected using incremental suture and gra adjustments. Large dorsum-tip discrepancies can oen result from an in­adequate columellar strut gra and/or a poorly positioned medial crural septal suture. Smaller discrepancies can result from poorly executed transdomal sutures and/or interdomal sutures. It is important to alter one suture at a time, so that the result is not inuenced by multiple variables.
e skin envelope should be redraped aer each suture is placed to determine whether modications in position or degree of tightness are needed.
Visible Tip Gras
If the nal tip projection is inadequate despite the incremental application of the previously described suturing and graing techniques, meticulously placed visible grafts are used, such as infratip, onlay, and combined tip gras. ese can be applied using sep­tal or conchal cartilage.
Part Four e Tip460
https://t.me/medicina_free
e dimensions of these gras are critical, because supratip, infratip, and domal landmarks can become blunted if these gras are not accurately curved at ana­tomic breakpoints. In addition, gras that may initially appear hidden may be­come visible with time as the skin envelope becomes less edematous.
If the desired tip projection and renement are not achieved using available invisible/nonpalpable tip suturing and cartilage graing techniques, then visible/ palpable cartilage gras may be used. ese include an assortment of infratip, onlay, and combined tip gras.
Nostril-Lobule Imbalance
Nostril-tip balance should also be reassessed and corrected, when indicated, with appropriate nostril-shaping techniques and other nal tip adjustments. When preoperative nostril-tip disproportion is recognized, the surgeon should observe the dynamic changes that have been made to this imbalance intraoperatively. For a patient with large nostril−small tip disproportion, excising a complete wedge of alar tissue reduces both alar aring and the nostril circumference. When the patient has a short nostril, there is oen lobular excess. In this case, a so triangle excision is required, with or without transdomal sutures to elongate the nostril apices. Care must be taken to avoid exaggeration of a short nostril deformity, which can result from maneuvers that increase tip projection and/or augment the infratip lobule without concomitant techniques that elongate the nostril.

Nostril-lobule imbalances must be assessed preoperatively and reassessed intra­operatively, because a preexisting disproportion may be exaggerated by augment­ing the tip and failing to address the nostril.

OPERATIVE TECHNIQUE FOR AN ALGORITHMIC APPROACH
A B C
1. e cartilaginous framework is exposed using the open rhinoplasty approach
with a stair-step transcolumellar incision and bilateral infracartilaginous in­cisions. e lower lateral cartilages are separated from the upper lateral carti­lages at the scroll area.
2. Aer addressing any required dorsal reduction, septal cartilage is harvested
as necessary for later use as gras, taking care to maintain adequate septal/ dorsal support.
3. A conservative cephalic trim is performed, as necessary.
4. Nonpalpable/invisible methods are initially used to address the nasal tip. A
columellar strut gra is rst placed to maintain or enhance tip projection. If the preoperative analysis calls for  to mm of additional projection, we gen­erally prefer to use a oating columellar strut gra fashioned from the har­vested septum. Care is taken to dissect the so tissue pocket for the gra to a point  to mm anterior to the anterior nasal spine (A). e xed columellar strut gra fashioned from rib cartilage is used only when a signicant amount of increased projection is required. is gra is placed in a so tissue pocket dissected down to the anterior nasal spine and straddles the spine.

5. The majority of tip refinement and incremental enhanced projection is
achieved with tip-suturing techniques. Medial crural sutures are rst placed to stabilize the medial crura to each other or to the columellar strut gra. is maneuver allows the surgeon to precisely estimate the desired tip projection and to unify the tip.
6. Interdomal sutures are placed between the domal segments of the middle
crura of the lower lateral cartilages (B and C), primarily to increase infratip­columellar projection and/or renement. In cases of domal asymmetry, indi­vidual unilateral or bilateral transdomal sutures are placed between the domal and lobular segments of the middle crura (D and E). As this suture is tight­ened, the domes are brought into symmetry. Care must be taken not to over­tighten this suture to avoid alar pinching or collapse.
7. During the placement of individual tip sutures the nasal skin should be re
­draped frequently to assess the adequacy of tip projection and renement af­ter each alteration. If the eect of a suture is undesirable, the suture is simply removed and/or replaced. It is important to remember that with the open ap­proach,  to mm of tip projection will be lost before the nal postoperative form has been achieved.
8. In approximately % to % of primary patients these techniques will result in the desired tip alteration. If tip projection/renement is still inadequate, then tip graing techniques are used. We frequently use remnants from ce­phalic trim, which may have been performed as a combination tip gra, espe­cially in thin-skinned patients. It may be secured to the columellar strut gras or medial crura and anterior septal angle with - PDS (F). ese gras will soen the appearance of the domes and will be invisible, even through a thin skin envelope. In the very thick-skinned individual who requires increased projection, onlay gras are used, beveling the edges as necessary. Infratip gras may be necessary primarily to enhance infratip lobular renement, or com­bined gras may be used to enhance both projection and infratip lobular de­nition.
9. Once the nal desired tip renement and projection have been achieved, the remainder of the operative procedure is performed, including osteotomies (as necessary), meticulous incision closure, and standard splinting.
As much as 1 to 2mm of tip projection will be lost before the nal postoperative tip projection has been achieved using the open approach.
