Hello, if you cut a proper amount of nasal septum, the nose will not collapse. Because there is a prerequisite for nasal septum removal, which is to ensure that the original frame structure is not damaged. Only in this case can the nasal septum be cut, and this principle must be observed. When cutting the nasal septum cartilage, the hospital will retain about 7~10mm cartilage at the back and tail of the nose. As long as there is L-shaped supporting cartilage, the nose will not collapse. In a simple way, it means that if the nose support structure is not changed, the nose will not collapse if it is cut appropriately.

Hello, your nose won't collapse. The operation process of cutting nasal septal cartilage can be understood as opening a small window on the original frame of a door without changing it. That is to say, the nose will not be affected as long as the supporting force of the original framework of the nasal septum does not change when the nasal septum cartilage is removed.
Mingke Ask
Hello, nasal septal cartilage, also known as quadrilateral cartilage or septal dorsal cartilage nasal septum, is the support of the nose bridge composed of the upper front edge and nasal bone, located at the end of the nasal back. Generally speaking, the nasal septal cartilage cut from the augmentation rhinoplasty operation needs to retain about 10-15mm L-shaped structural stent, which is strong enough to safely support the nose without collapsing.
