Rhinoplasty in New York City

Thank you for sharing your photos. Your concerns are quite frequently seen in our practice. Based on your photos, you may benefit a rhinoplasty to improve tip definition. To do this you would likely need an open rhinoplasty using tip defining techniques and possible tip cartilage grafts. I would like to extend an invitation for a consult to discuss firsthand the changes will begin to achieve with your nose and eyes.

Rhinoplasty and blepharoplasty

For most of our patients with these requests, I recommend open rhinoplasty to provide more facial harmony. You do not appear to have excess skin in your upper lids therefore, you may not be a candidate for blepharoplasty surgery.

Canthoplasty results can be disappointing

WHat you are asking for your eyelids is not a "blepharoplasty" but a canthoplasty/canthopexy to change the shape of the outside corner of the eyelids. This is a procedure that is fraught with risk of producing an unnatural result. You eyelids fit your face very well. I would think twice about requesting this procedure. As far as the rhinoplasty goes, I will leave that recommendation to the rhinoplasty surgeons.

Rhinoplasty

It is impossible to assess your eyes from your posted photos. Why did you take the last photo with your eyes closed? The base of your tip is wide, the trip droops slightly and it has a round parentheses shape. Standard rhinoplasty with trimming of the upper edge of the tip cartilages, suture positioning of those cartilages and narrowing of the base should address these issues. Additional procedures might be desireable but your posted photos do not allow for a complete assessment of the nose.... more

Rhinoplasty and eyelid surgery

Your nose can certainly be treated by rhinoplasty including refinement of the tip area. The photos aren't very helpful in terms of identifying a potential problem and enabling me to determine whether it is something that can be treated with Botox, for example, or surgically. I recommend that you see an experienced board certified plastic surgeon in consultation to discuss your concerns.

Rhinoplasty for the bulbous tip, etc.

I would need better photos to determine if anything needs to be done to your eyelids. Your nose can be refined to give a much more attractive nose. See an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon.

You do appear to have a possibility of some upper lid skin removal to provide a proper crease however without direct examination it is hard to say.

I provide digital imaging in my office allowing you to see the proposed surgical... more
