Nasal tip structure influenced by cartilage, skin thickness, and support; changes here can affect projection, symmetry, and overall profile.
The dorsal tip is shaped by underlying cartilage, skin thickness, and connective support. Genetics largely determine tip shape and projection, but aging can soften cartilage support and alter definition over time.
Skin thickness, prior trauma, or subtle asymmetries can also influence how prominent or refined the tip appears. For many, small changes in the dorsal tip can significantly affect facial balance and side-profile harmony.
