Narrowing of nasal dorsum without projection lowering in preservation rhinoplasty

Objective. Aesthetic narrowing of nasal dorsum without reducing its height or compromising its structural support. Material and methods. Over a 14-month period (April 2024 — May 2025), 87 surgeries were performed (84 women and 3 men). Autogenous bone grafts were used for nasal dorsum narrowing. Mean patient age was 33 years (range 19-47). Rhinoplasty was performed using closed and open approaches. Results. Postoperative monitoring (short-term and long-term) revealed no complications. The predicted aesthetic result, consistent with preoperative modeling, was achieved in 100% of cases. Conclusion. Original technique for nasal dorsum narrowing in preservation rhinoplasty ensures optimal nasal dorsum width and prevents postoperative complications.
