Rhinoplasty: Q&A

How Can I Have a More Dainty Nose Without Looking Overdone?
I think the bulbous tip is the main culprit and I'd like to have that corrected. Would I even notice the difference if I just had the tip corrected? Would that give me the appearance of a more dainty and feminine nose?

Dainty nose without looking overdone
The rhinoplasty procedure is performed to feminize and refine the nose including a bulbous tip. There are multiple different techniques in the tip, including tip suturing and dome binding sutures that are placed in the tip along with removal of tip cartilage to effect change and refine the tip. It is important not to over resect and maintain structural integrity to the nose so that it balances with itself and your facial features. This can all be done through a close...

Rhinoplasty for a Dainty Nose
Thank you for your question. You are pretty and have a very nice strong normal nose.
Most important for you is modification and reduction and elevation or superior rotation of the nasal tip.
However, once you have a smaller dainty nasal tip, the rest of the nose must match it.
Therefore I agree that narrowing of the nasal bones and removal of the dorsal hump or bump is required.
So a full Rhinoplasty with tip modification is required.
Don't be mislead by marketing terms-a...

Natural rhinoplasty.
I have done rhinoplasty and revision rhinoplasty for more than 30 years---but that is NOT the reason to go to any surgeon. No matter what they say look at the kind of noses they do AND meet with their patients to see if they really do natural noses.

A small change in the nose can make a big change in the face.
Hi.
From your pictures, I think you should do well with a "finesse" rhinoplasty. But I would not just do the tip. Your nose is a little long, and that should be addressed (very subtly).

How Can I Have a More Dainty Nose Without Looking Overdone?
How Can I Have a More Dainty Nose Without Looking Overdone? I have performed Rhinoplasty for over 20 years and the nose should never look "done" when Rhinoplasty is properly performed based on the aesthetics of beauty. From your photos, I agree that the biggest aesthetic issue is the nasal tip. this can be thiined and refined to look sleek and natural. You should also consider thinning the nasal bridge and removing the slight hump.

More danty not overdone
First I would see someone with experience performing rhinoplasty. I have found it useful to use a computer to help the individual visualize a potential result. I would visit with a few surgeons and get a sense of what each views as your problems and compare their vision to your vision re your nose.

Rhinoplasty without looking over done
Rhinoplasty takes care planning, and the best way to get the result which will please you is to clearly demonstrate what you like and hope to see after surgery. This is why we like computer imaging, as it allows us to 'try' results and changes and see how things look and measure up. Over done on the computer can be deleted or adjusted. Over done after surgery is a problem.
Best of luck,

See an experienced surgeon
The art of rhinoplasty walks a thin line between "better" or "more refined" and overdone. You need to see an experienced rhinoplastic surgeon who can talk to you to determine what you want and explain to you what can be done.
There is no magic here, it is all experience and planning.

Well-performed Rhinoplasty Surgery may lead to improvement in the appearance of your bulbous tip.
I read your concerns and reviewed the photos you posted. You appear to have a wide tip that tends to droop with smiling. Rhinoplasty Surgery may be employed to address these concerns, and in the right hands, result in an improved appearance.
If you want to improve the appearance of your nose, you should consult several rhinoplasty specialists for an in-person evaluation, with computer-imaging, to determine what you could expect to achieve following nose job surgery. Dr. Joseph.

More dainty without looking overdone
To make your nose more dainty without looking overdone.....this is the art of rhinoplasty.
My personal philosophy is that patients should look like themselves after surgery, just more refined. I believe the ideal nose does not stand out or make people think you had surgery, but blends into the face to bring attention to other beautiful features like the eyes and mouth.
From your photos, you appear to be a good candidate for rhinoplasty, however it is always impossible to truly...

Rhinoplasty
Your concerns can be addressed through a closed technique (no incision on the outer skin of your nose). I advise that you find an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon who can take photos during your consultation, and clearly design a plan with you. It is often helpful to find a surgeon who has imaging software which can simulate how the planned surgical changes will appear post surgery. I find this helpful during an initial consultation to assure the surgeon is on the same page with the patient.
