Rhinoplasty Cases

Case 90
This young woman did not like the look of her nose. She felt the tip was too long and droopy and bulbous. She disliked her profile especially. She was found to have cartilages in the tip that were positioned in such a way that they are directed towards the middle. Surgeons call this cephalically oriented lower lateral cartilages or Paranthesis deformity. This often creates a prominent tip and droopy nose with poor airflow. A celebrity who I feel has this type of nose is Owen Wilson. Generally to correct this your rhinoplasty surgeon will change the position of the cartilages…

Case 92
This young woman disliked the shape of her nose. She was found to have a convex shaped bridge and mild tip bulbosity. The tip was shifted a bit to the right. She wished to have a more soft sloped feminine nasal profile and better tip definition. Results are shown at more than 2 years after a closed rhinoplasty. The tip is more defined. The bridge has a more attractive feminine shape as desired. The tip is also seen to be more in the midline.

Case 44
This young man had a deviated and asymmetric nose as a result of previous nasal trauma/ nasal fracture. The bony nasal pyramid was wide and deviated and the tip was deviated to the right. Note the asymmetry of the nostrils in the view from below as a result of the tip deviation. He underwent an external approach septorhinoplasty to straighten the nose and improve the overall symmetry. The tip is now midline and the nostrils are almost equal. His breathing is also markedly improved as a result of the surgery to correct the deviated septum.

Case 43
This young woman was displeased with the length of her nose, feeling that it extended too far from her face and created an unattractive appearance.

Researching her options for rhinoplasty surgeons in Toronto, she decided to meet with Dr. Rival based on his extensive training and clear experience providing satisfying results. In her consultation, she and Dr. Rival discussed the best options to correct the asymmetry of her nose that, as her pre-operative photo demonstrates, was situated significantly lower on the…

Case 42
This young woman always felt her nose was too large for her face. In her consultation at our comfortable offices she explored a few different approaches to reshape her nose using rhinoplasty in Toronto. In her consultation, Dr. Rival assessed her facial structure and discussed her best options to correct her nasal bridge and the tip of her nose, which both project too far from her face. This creates a disproportionate look from a number of angles, as the nose draws attention away from the eyes and disrupts the balance created by the chin and forehead. In her procedure, Dr.…

Case 39
Previous injury had left this young man with a nose that severely deviated from its original, balanced position. In his consultation at our plastic and rhinoplasty surgery offices in Toronto, he explained that the awkward shape of his nose made him self-conscious of his appearance and even made breathing difficult. Dr. Rival and the patient discussed a few different options, focusing on ways to correct the bent shape of the patient’s nose, minimize his nasal “hump,” and elevate the drooping nosetip. Open rhinoplasty corrects the angle and shape of the nose by re-contouring the bone and cartilage that structure it.…
