This female patient presented after trauma with nasal obstruction from a deviation of the nose and nasal septum. The deviation of the nose resulted in significant blockage of the nasal airway. The so-called boxy – tip deformity also contributed to dysfunction of her nasal valve. Dr. Gassner performed a minimally invasive rhinoplasty procedure to correct the nasal dorsum, the nasal tip and the airway obstruction.
As a result of trauma, this procedure was medically indicated in order to reconstruct the obstructed nasal airway and in order to reconstruct the pre-existing normal shape of the nose.
