Nose Tip Droops when Smiling, is This a Hyper Active Muscle?

May 15, 2013
Asked By:minimia34

My nose tip droops a little anyway but that doesn't really bother me. When I smile it droops down a lot and my nostrils also seem to flare. Is this caused by a hyperactive muscle and can it easily be fixed?
