Patient Case #29750: Dorsal Preservation Rhinoplasty California
Procedure Information
Description:Looking for the Best Dorsal Preservation Rhinoplasty Surgeon in California?
If you’re happy with the front view of your nose but dissatisfied with the side profile, dorsal preservation rhinoplasty might be the ideal solution for you. Unlike traditional techniques that remove the top portion of the nasal bridge, dorsal preservation reshapes and recontours the bridge while maintaining its natural dorsal aesthetic lines
Dr. Kolstad specializes in this advanced technique, which avoids disrupting the most narrow—and often aesthetically critical—part of the bridge. Traditional hump reduction can result in widening or flattening of the nose, but dorsal preservation helps maintain a more refined and natural appearance.

Dr. Kolstad is known for his conservative approach to rhinoplasty. His goal is to enhance each patient’s natural beauty by shifting attention away from the nose and toward the overall harmony of the face. When a nose is well-balanced, it blends seamlessly into the facial features—complementing rather than commanding attention.
DORSAL PRESERVATION RHINOPLASTY CASE 7
Crooked noses are often the result of congenital deviations of the nasal axis. Dorsal preservation rhinoplasty offers an innovative approach to straightening the nose without the need for complex rib grafts.
Piezo ultrasonic energy was utilized to perform asymmetric osteotomies for precise bridge straightening. A high strip technique was used to lower the dorsal hump while maintaining a narrow bridge in the frontal view. To enhance tip support and prevent drooping during smiling, a strong structural graft was placed at the nasal tip. Fascia from behind the ear was used to improve skin contour.
