Hi, thanks for sharing your pics. A septorhinoplasty both corrects structural problems and reshapes the nose into a more pleasing shape. Reducing the hump that's especially noticeable in your side profile would greatly enhance your overall appearance. Additionally, since the tip of your nose is quite long, reducing its projection and refining it would give a more delicate and balanced look. A chin implant would likely complement these changes and further improve the harmony of your facial features, making your nose look even better in proportion. Best of luck on your journey!

Hi from İstanbul, thanks for your question. These lines are caused by muscle activity, and a facelift can improve their appearance by reducing excess skin in the area. While a mini facelift would help, combining it with a mid-facelift would provide more comprehensive and longer-lasting results. Best of luck to you!

Hi from Istanbul! For the best results, I believe combining both procedures would be more effective. Specifically, the excess skin on the outer part of your upper eyelid can be nicely addressed with a brow lift. Removing too much upper eyelid skin alone could actually pull your brow down, so the combination of both will provide a more balanced and natural outcome. Hope this helps, best of luck on your journey!

Hi from Istanbul! I perform hundreds of ethnic rhinoplasties each year and it is definitely possible to achieve a natural looking nose that works well with the rest of your features. A smaller and more refined nasal tip can be achieved with tip plasty and alarplasty. However, I also recommend narrowing the nasal bones with an osteotomy to ensure a more balanced and natural-looking result. Of course, for a more detailed analysis, you should consult in person with a plastic surgeon whose aesthetic vision aligns with yours. Best of luck to you.

Hello from Istanbul, Türkiye! This is a common nasal structure that I often treat. The drooping of the tip, especially when you smile, is due to long and weak nasal tip cartilages. By shortening and reinforcing these cartilages, the nose will not only look more refined, but your breathing may also improve. As for your profile, reducing the hump slightly and narrowing the wide nasal bones will create a more balanced and proportionate look. A small reduction (1-2 mm) of the nasal alae could also help enhance the overall appearance. Hope this helps, best of luck to you!

Hi from Istanbul! In my practice, I get hundreds of patients a year from overseas, many of them for rhinoplasty and breast procedures. For patients undergoing breast augmentation alone, I typically recommend waiting at least 5 days before flying. If the procedure includes a lift, it’s best to wait 7 days before traveling. Best of luck to you.

Hi from İstanbul, thanks for your question. The sagging you're noticing can be addressed by tightening the platysma through incisions made under the chin and behind the ears. To improve the contour of the slightly hollow areas in the neck, fat injections may also be considered for a more refined appearance. Best of luck to you.

Hi from Istanbul. Great question! Even after surgery, platysma bands can reappear for various reasons. While certain techniques during the procedure can reduce the chance of recurrence, they don't eliminate the possibility entirely. However, the overall result would still be much improved compared to the original state. If the bands do reappear, less invasive treatments can be used to address them, such as targeted cuts or Botox to weaken the muscle. Hope this helps, best of luck to you!

ANSWER
Hi from Istanbul, thanks for sharing your pics. If you're thinking about reducing chin projection, chin reduction surgery would be the most effective option. Shaving alone wouldn’t yield significant results in your case. After the surgery, you might notice more sagging around the neck, so I’d recommend a neck lift to tighten the muscles beneath the neck. Incisions made in front of and behind the ears can help lift the jowl and also tighten the neck for a smoother, more defined look. Hope this helps, best of luck.

ANSWER
Hi from Istanbul, thanks for this question. It's a rather interesting topic and I think it would help prospective patients as well. The "footprint" of the breast, meaning the anatomical starting and ending points, is different for everyone and can't be changed by implants or a lift. While implants or a lift can add volume and lift sagging breasts, they won't alter this natural placement. For breasts that are naturally positioned lower on the torso, it's not possible to significantly raise them and maintain that position long-term. So, you could review your options with this in mind. Best of luck to you.
