How does Dr Solomon narrow the tip of the nose?
A. Generally narrowing the tip of the nose is accomplished by either reshaping the existing cartilage of the nose by trimming the cartilage or changing the cartilage shape. Some soft fatty tissue can also be removed under the skin to improve nasal tip definition. Permanent sutures can be placed to narrow the shape of the cartilage of the tip. Finally cartilage can be added with nasal tip grafts to actually improve nasal tip definition. Dr Solomon at the time of the consult will determine which method he thinks would work best in your situation.
