A short and upturned nose is complicated to correct and must be done by a rhinoplasty specialist. In simple cases, cartilage is excised from the upper part of the nose tip and the nose is adjusted to the correct angle. More difficult cases require additional septal cartilage to be grafted to reach the correct angle. In complex cases, additional ear cartilage will be used to prop up the nose tip.
