A straight bridge has always been the aesthetic ideal for rhinoplasty surgeons and patients[1,2,3]
Summary
A straight bridge has always been the aesthetic ideal. Simple hump removal, the classical and most commonly applied method, can have aesthetic and functional consequences. Methods: This study created graphic and real interventions to achieve a straight bridge through radix and tip raising and analyzed how patients and independent observers perceive these changes. Conclusion: Correction of the nasal dorsum, making a straight bridge through slightly increasing radix and tip, creates the perception of a decreased nose size. Hump removal is the classical and most commonly applied method[4,5,6,7]; consensus is lacking[8,9] It might yield known aesthetic and functional consequences, like internal valve insufficiency, inverted “V,” supra-tip deformity, and other complications[10,11]. Systematic hump removal is still used to correct dorsal convexity This is possibly due to surgeons’ resistance to performing augmentation procedures. The fear of a size augmentation perception when patients generally request nose reduction is possibly among them[12]
