description <strong>Background:</strong> Facial profile defects in nose prominence and retrognatia may cause psychological trauma. Aesthetic surgery allows patients with convex profile to recover psychologically and functionally. The possibility of performing both corrections in only one surgery enhances patient’s recovering y and reduces the cost. <strong>Objective:</strong> To prove the effectiveness of performing profile aesthetic treatment in only one surgery. <strong>Method:</strong> Descriptive study of 18 patients operated in a period of five years in Cienfuegos hospital Dr. Gustavo Aldereguía Lima. Anterosuperior and basilar osteotomies were performed,as well as rhinoplasty and silicon grafts. Corrections are performed in only one ambulatory surgery. <strong>Results:</strong> Patients´ ages varied between 18 and 30, including two patients of 40 and 50 years each. There were no complications and all of them were satisfied with the clinic and aesthetic results. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> Profile plastic surgery can be effectively performed in only one surgical time to fix convex profile.
