When the upper nose is wider, it can create an unbalanced nose shape that is distracting. A wide nasal bridge is caused by a larger nasal bone, usually a genetic trait. Slimming the nasal bridge can create a more attractive nose that looks more harmonious with the other facial features. Dr. Stefan Shuaib at Dallas Facial Plastic Surgery Center can perform wide nasal bridge cosmetic nose correction surgery at our facility in Irving, TX.

Since a wide nasal bridge is caused by the size of the nasal bone, it requires changing the bone to reduce the width. Osteotomy is a procedure that is used to reshape bone, and it is used when performing a wide nasal bridge correction surgery. The nasal bone extends about one-third of the way down from the top of the nasal bridge. This bone can be reshaped by creating small fractures to reposition or reduce the size, creating a slimmer, more attractive nose shape.

Nasal Bridge Reshaping

The nasal bridge plays a significant role in the appearance of the nose. Reducing the width of the bridge is often combined with nasal hump removal. Once a dorsal or nose hump is flattened on the bridge, the nose can look wider. While reducing the hump on the bridge, an osteotomy may be performed to both reduce the hump and slim the bridge to create the desired appearance.
