CLAIM YOUR PROFILEA modified deep plane lip lift will give your lip a more full appearance and reduce the distance between your nose and lip. It can also potentially improve asymmetries and increase your tooth show on smiling. A consultation would help determine if you are a good candidate based on your dental and jaw anatomy. Good luck!

In general a lip lift and rhinoplasty can be done at the same time. However, this depends on the type of alarplasty that is needed and there are some limitations to this. A lip lift would not address the columellar retraction or nostril show. It seems your tip is underprojected and over-rotatated which also gives a perception of a longer lip. I recommend an in-person consultation with a revision rhinoplasty and lip lift expert to determine a realistic improvement. Good luck.

Hello, I would recommend an in-office consultation to see if a lip lift would be beneficial. It seems you may have had some filler in the past which has migrated upward. A deep plane liplift can be customized to your anatomy and provide a long-lasting solution. Good luck!

Hello, a rhinoplasty would first address the deviated septum causing a deviation both externally and internally. Once the septum is straightened, the tip cartilages would then be addressed. The tip needs to be de-projected and tip cartilages re-shaped to create more symmetry. Minimal cartilage would be removed. Finally, you have very thin skin so this would likely need camouflage. Good luck!

You should consult with a surgeon that has experience will all types of noses. You would be a good candidate for a finesse rhinoplasty to improve the tip contour and position. An in-office consultation would be needed to determine a more customized surgical plan.

Hello, thank you for your question. Yes a rhinoplasty can be performed to reshape the tip to make your nose more balanced. The tip cartilage would likely need to reduced in their overall length and convexity straightened.

You would be a good candidate for a deep plane lip lift. The classic lip lift techniques may result in sub-optimal scarring and muscle function. With a deep plane release, there is minimal scarring and muscle function is maintained.

It depends on what technique is used. A classic technique is simple removal of skin without a deep plane release. This will commonly result in unfavorable scarring and sub-optimal results. With advanced techniques, a 5 mm excision will have little effect on tooth show. A consultation will help determine the maximum amount of skin that can be safely removed.

Thank you for your question. In some cases the dorsal hump may be sculpted without breaking the bones to achieve the desired result. A significant hump reduction would require a controlled in-fracture of the nasal bones.

A deep plane lip lift combined with a corner lift would help create a more balanced appearance. This would address all aspects of your upper lip.
