Video Summary

The video discusses a cartilage-preserving technique for weaker nasal tip cartilages in rhinoplasty. A 6mm strip of cartilage is preserved without excision. An incision is made, and pockets are created under the lower lateral cartilage on both sides to allow advancement of the cartilage's syphilic portion while preserving its ligaments. In another patient, cartilage is advanced before suturing for secure placement. This method ensures structural integrity while enhancing nasal tip stability.
