A tip rhinoplasty is a partial rhinoplasty of the end or tip of the nose

A tip rhinoplasty is a partial rhinoplasty of the end or tip of the nose. It often involves only making alterations in the lower third of the nose and is reserved for patients who do not wish to make any changes to the middle or upper third of the nose or where surgery in that area is not necessary to achieve the desired aesthetic result. However, be cautious of addressing the tip only since often times not correcting the remaining portion of the nose can make the tip look out of balance or disproportionate to the remaining nasal profile. Also, the tip of the nose is the hardest part of the nose to correct and requires more precision and a surgeon who has more experience in that area.
