Good Candidate for Nonsurgical Rhinoplasty? (photo)

I'm 16 and wondering if I would be a good candidate for a nonsurgical rhinoplasty. I am looking to possibly make the slight appearance of a thinner nose and to create a more defined tip with a lift. sorry about the bad quality photos!

Based on your photos and your concerns, you do not appear to be a suitable candidate for Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty Treatments.

If you're looking to achieve a narrower nose and a refined, less bulbous nasal tip, you may need to consider Rhinoplasty Surgery. Injectable fillers would not enable you to achieve these goals. Hope this helps. Dr. Joseph see video

Non surgical rhinoplasty will not refine tip.

Hi. The problem with your nose is a somewhat round tip, and the only way to fix this is with a good surgical nose job. see video

Non-surgical rhinoplasty

Thank you for your photos. There is no need to apologize! You are very pretty. You have a very good nose. Now to get it thinner, the tip for defined: a non-surgical rhinoplasty can raise the top of your nose, making your nose took thinner by making it taller. But I don't think that is the look you want. You might do best with a tip rhinoplasty. If your parents agree, consult a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon or a Board Certified ENT surgeon to know... more
