Fig. 5. — Case 3—to smoothen postsurgical tip irregularities. A, Profile view of a 25-year-old woman who presented with a poorly defined and underprojected tip after undergoing 2 previous rhinoplasties (performed elsewhere). She had no other relevant medical or surgical history. B, Appearance 10 months after a successful closed rhinoplasty with triple conchal tip grafts. C, Four years after the tertiary surgery, the patient presented with increasing visibility of the tip grafts. D, Appearance 2 years after intradermal injection of 0.1 mL Restylane Perlane using a sharp 29-G needle around the tip graft (mainly in the supratip area), which effectively masked the graft visibility.
