Summary

Introduction

Descriptions of rhinoplasty procedures have been widely published in the literature. Few authors have reported their experiences in aesthetic alterations of nasal columella. The aim of this study is to describe our approach for aesthetic alterations of the nasal columella most commonly observed in our clinical practice; i.e. retracted and hanging columellas. Perfect columella and treatment of columella disharmonies. Several authors have defined anatomical aspects of the perfect columella and its normal variations [2, 4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14, 16]. Sheen reports that the perfect relationship between the columella and alar rims should not exceed 2–3 mm below a line parallel to their inferior border, on a profile view [4].
