Popis: The droop of the nasal tip in advanced age is due to the changes of the shape and of the structure of the lobular cartilage. In young people this cartilage is convex and rather resistant. In advanced age it is straightened and segmented so that it becomes larger in cranio-caudal direction and it thus shifts caudally.
