Nasal tip shaping with a cartilage graft in first-time rhinoplasty
Part of Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This trial tests a surgical technique that uses your own nasal cartilage to improve the shape and position of your nasal tip. It's for people having their first rhinoplasty (nose job) for cosmetic or breathing reasons.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having a rhinoplasty for the first time.

- You have not had any prior nose surgery.
- You have no major nose injuries that changed your cartilage.
- You are healthy enough for elective surgery and anesthesia.
- You do not have a condition like body dysmorphic disorder or serious mental health issues.

This study tracks how patients feel and function after nose surgery that uses a piece of cartilage (septal extension graft) to reshape the nose. Researchers want to understand both the benefits and any complications to improve future care.
This trial studies a way to better control pain for people who need nasal surgery that uses rib cartilage. It may help reduce discomfort during the procedure and recovery.
This trial looks at how well an external septorhinoplasty (surgery to improve the nasal passage) works for people with long-term nasal blockage. It mainly involves filling out questionnaires so the researchers can analyze outcomes over time.
This trial compares doing a single surgery to fix both the nose and gum problems caused by a cleft lip and palate, versus doing multiple surgeries over time. It aims to find out which approach works better for children and teens.
This study compares two ways of using cartilage from inside the nose to fix a droopy or uneven nasal tip during rhinoplasty (nose reshaping). It may help people who want cosmetic improvement of their nose tip.
This trial compares two surgical methods to reshape the tip of the nose. It aims to see which technique gives better results for people with nasal tip deformities.
