Significantly twisted nose, by Dr. Gerbault:
- Significantly twisted noses are challenges in rhinoplasty: they frequently combine a facial asymmetry and a significant septal deviation. They are real aesthetic issues, but also functional issues with a nasal obstruction at least on one side.
- This lady had both issues and beneficiated from an ultrasonic rhinoplasty with an ultrasonic septoplasty to straighten the septum, stabilize it in a straight position, and fix the nasal asymmetries while refining the nose.
- The result is shown at a little more than a year post-op with an improvement of the asymmetry, and the returnof a normal nasal breathing.
