Abstract
Nasal tip plasty is a real functional and aesthetical challenge in rhinoplasty. Many techniques have been described with different degrees of variability. The classic technique is the vertical division of the domes with section of the intermediate domes and directed healing without suture or cartilaginous grafting. The technique is based on an alar section or resection combined with a transdomal suture (STD) which allows control of the projection and rotation of the nasal tip.
