Overview
The aim of the study to compare and evaluate the effect of septal advancement flap in preserving and reshaping the nasal tip with columellar strut graft
Description
The ideal tip support graft should support the exact position over time, avoid stiffness of a natural soft structure of the tip, be easily harvested typically septal cartilage, facilitate surgeon control of rotation and projection.
To address these desirable features the septal advancement flap (SAF) was developed. The septal advancement flap (SAF) is a rotational advancement flap of the superior and caudal aspects of the cartilaginous septum that enables the surgeon to create stable and accurate tip shape and position. This is a technically easy and reliable flap mainly applicable to primary rhinoplasty.
so investigator compare between this new technique and old one like columellar strut to know the effect on nasal tip
Eligibility

- Droopy nasal tip
