What Could I Realistically Expect from Rhinoplasty? (photo)
I was initially worried when I first noticed a bump forming in my nose about six years a go, but I learnt to accept it as my nose looked fine from the front. A face-plant from a tree and a few direct hits with a football later, and this is what I have now at nineteen years old. I currently have absolutely no confidence in myself and avoid as many social situations as possible. What kind of results would I be looking at from an experienced surgeon?

Rhinoplasty can remove a bump and make your nose look better
It's hard to state what kind of results you could get from rhinoplasty. The bump on your nose could be improved. Often that helps boost people's confidence. But you should consider rhinoplasty for your nose only. The confidence issue often follows but is not always a direct consequence. Visit a qualfied rhinoplasty surgeon. I find that computer imaging helps a lot in visualizing potential results.

Rhinoplasty for broken nose
A rhinoplasty would address shaving down any dorsal hump and decrease in the projection of the nose. Osteotomies would involve narrowing the bridge. A small amount of tip surgery might be required to balance the tip with the remainder of the nose. Is difficult to say without a side profile picture, but consideration for a chin implant might be entertained. Virtual rhinoplasty/ Chin implant is available our website for you to try out.
