Osteotomy
A wide nose creates the impression of a flat and stubby nose. To improve this condition, the width of the nose bone should be reduced with osteotomy. Osteotomy is recommended to be performed together with Rhinoplasty or Nose hump reduction or Tip plasty. Osteotomy is recommended for those who want to have a well defined nose from not only the side view but also the front view. Osteotomy can improve not only wide looking nose, but also slanted / crooked nose.
Process of osteotomy
- The surgeon diagnoses the condition of wide / slanted / crooked nose bone structure. Bone fracture design carefully planned and performed while protecting the nose inner structure
- Slender and clearly defined nose is created
Who is eligible for osteotomy?
