Tip refinement and narrowing nostril base will help wide, bulbous nose

Robert B. Pollack, MD answers: Alar width reduction or a weir excision for wide, bulbous nose?

Along with the width of my nose, I really don't like the tip as well it is quite bulbous, the problem is that from side pictures it is very overprojected as well. I feel like a lost cause also because the skin is pretty thick. Could you fix that for the tip of my nose? What kind of procedure do you think could be done to my nose?

Even with the thickened skin you would see a good improvement with refinement of the tip of your nose and reduction of the height and width of the side of your nostrils. An experienced plastic surgeon should be able to suggest this for you.

Hope this helps.
