So, I got a nose job when i was 14 which was almost 5 years ago. Everything went well, but lately I have be a little concerned about the tip of my nose. First off, it is still hard as a rock! It's been 5 years! Shouldn't have soften by now? Also the tip is about a centimeter and a half longer then the rest of my nose.
I need some opinions from other people and possible some surgeons. I was also wondering how much this revision surgery would cost? Thank you

While I see what you're saying, I think you have a very cute nose. I see your "flaw" as an attractive distincter that makes you stand out in a good way. I'd keep it, as long as you're not experiencing non-cosmetic breathing or other problems b/c of it.

Hi I am a tough critic I see what might be bothering you and why but honestly I don't think it looks bad. I can tell you why it bothers you and what a plastic sugeon would see. You see the farthest tip of your nose should be lower on the actual tip of your nose. That doesn't mean your nose is wrong in your case because it doesn't look weird or stick out in any unpleasant tor fake way. Your profile is pretty and as long as you like the way your nose looks from the front why go through another surgury that might alter what is already good? You have a good profile.

My daughter just went through the procedure. (It's been 4 weeks) Your profile is lovely - really. Did your surgeon do a graft to the tip? Did you have open Rhinoplasty? It could be scar tissue after the wound heals. I'd hate to see you have revision and possibly have it look worse - i.e. a too small tip leaving you with the dreaded "pig snout" look. If it feels ok - it certainly looks good - why go through the uncertainty and expense of revision?

i think you have a gorgeous nose and should leave it as is! it may not be perfect, but it could be MUCH MUCH MUCH worse. trying to do surgery again for something very small could end up making it a lot worse off.
Hi there,
I see what you mean about your nose tip protruding a little. As far as the tip of your nose being hard, that can be permanent, depending on what was done during your rhinoplasty. It's a nice nose! Truly. But if you seek out revision rhinoplasty, be sure to find someone who specializes in this very intricate procedure. Good luck and please let us know what you decide to do!
