What is garlic nose

"Bulbous nose" mainly includes two deformities: hypertrophy of nose tip and wide and thick nose wings, most of which are congenital. In addition to being affected by the thickness of skin and subcutaneous tissue, the most important factors affecting the shape of nose are nasal bones and nasal cartilages. The problem of bulbous nose is the thick subcutaneous fat and fibrous tissue in the nose tip, hyperplasia of alar cartilage, excessive angle of alar cartilage and retraction. The problem of bulbous nose is the thick subcutaneous fat and fibrous tissue in the nose tip, hyperplasia of alar cartilage, excessive angle of alar cartilage and retraction. Oriental people have less hyperplasia of alar cartilage, but it is caused by the excessive angle between the two sides of the alar cartilage and the retraction of the outer alar cartilage.

Treatment

Surgery method: If the cartilage tissue is large, the excess nose tip cartilage will be removed. If there is a lot of subcutaneous fat and fibrous tissue, the situation will be more complicated. The cartilage and muscles must be adjusted. If necessary, the nose wing and nose tip must also be moved. If the angle between the two sides of the nose wing cartilage is too large, it can be improved by suturing. However, the height of the nose tip cannot exceed the range that the nose can bear.
