Understanding the Importance of the Nasion

The nasion, located between the eyes at the top of the nasal bridge, plays a crucial role in determining facial volume and definition. A poorly defined nasion can make facial features appear flat and less refined.

Common Causes of a Flat Nasion

• Bone Structure
◦ Underdeveloped nasal bones: A naturally low or underdeveloped nasal bone can result in a flat nasion.
◦ Flattened forehead: A flat forehead can accentuate the appearance of a flat nasion.
• Cartilage Issues
◦ Small nasal cartilage angle: A small angle between the nasal cartilage and the nasal bone can contribute to a flat nasion.
• Other Factors
◦ Nasal trauma: Past injuries to the nose, such as fractures, can lead to a deformed nasal bone and a flattened nasion.
◦ Aging: As we age, the soft tissues in the nose can atrophy, causing the nasion to appear flatter.
