title: Nuances with the mestizo tip.
abstract: Mestizo nasal tips are a challenge. A gradual approach is presented, emphasizing minimal tissue resection, reinforcement of support structures of the nasal tip, and use of sutures and grafts in a judicious manner. The final result should be tips with improved definition, rotation, and projection.
