The droopy nose tip can be corrected using tip-plasty in Los Angeles. After the nasal envelope dissection, cartilage at the nose tip must be released from the surrounding tissues and relocate them to change the shape of the nasal tip. If the tip requires more refinement, ear cartilages and Medpor are used to achieve the ideal shape of the nose.
Procedure
The duration of the surgery is different for each patient. The surgery is performed under oral sedatives and local anesthesia, and the pain during surgery is minimal. Each patient will have different degree of swelling right after the surgery, but the swelling is most severe on first two days of the surgery.
We recommend that a patient sleeps with head at higher position using extra pillows in order to reduce swelling more quickly.
