Wide Nasal Bone Repair Combined with Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty

This Seattle rhinoplasty patient had concerns regarding the width of her nasal bones. During her initial consultation, Dr. Thomas Lamperti noted that the upper third of the patient’s nose was wide, but her nasal tip was well proportioned with the rest of her face. The patient underwent surgery using a closed technique, using only hidden, internal incisions that allowed Dr. Lamperti to narrow the patient’s nasal bones using a controlled bone fracturing technique. Shown six weeks after surgery, one can note a narrower bony nasal vault which gives better shadowing and definition to her face. An upper eyelid blepharoplasty was also performed at the same time in order to remove excess upper eyelid skin.
