Abstract
The correction of the Pinocchio's nose, either in primary or secondary deformities, poses a difficult problem for plastic surgeons. We propose an original technique with which we obtain excellent results. This technique is based on the elimination of the domes of the alar cartilages and on the placement of a shield graft at the desired height.
