title: [Resection of the depressor muscle of the tip in esthetic rhinoplasties].
abstract: Musculus depressor septi nasi is a muscle of facial expression, supplied by the facial nerve, it is more or less visible according to the individual. Easily exposed, using the intersepto-columellar incision, it is dissected from the skin surrounding it, then resected and in cases where the muscle is clearly defined, he can be brought up immediately. We consider resection of the musculus depressor septi nasi to be invaluable in rhinoplasty: -- firstly, to keep the tip of the nose well positioned during; -- secondly, to prevent certain "pseudo crow's-bill" deformities; -- finally, to give an impression of length to certain short upper (white ?) lips.
