Concerns : Wide nose when smiling Asymmetrical nostrils Asymmetrical nose sides Droopiness Want: Symmetrical nose shape Symmetrical nostrils Bulbous reduced
Answer: Rhinoplasty concerns Your concerns are very common. The nose can be improved by adding refinement and definition to the tip. Keep in mind that your desired nasal shape is helpful in order to communicate with the surgeon your desires, but surgery must be performed within a patient's anatomical limitations. We must also aim to keep the nose in harmony with the rest of the facial structure. The best way to proceed would be an in-person consultation with a rhinoplasty specialist to review your concerns in detail and discuss the types of changes you would like to see. Be sure to see an expert who specializes in rhinoplasty and facial aesthetic procedures. All the best,

Options? hello thank you for your question and provided information as well..based on the photos shown, to get the type of nose that is in the example photos as a base you must have another type of nose more elongated and with curvature in the dorsal part of the bone.but in your case the ideal is to consult in person by a certified plastic surgeon to see your case and evaluate which technique would be ideal in your case.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photograph, you may benefit from a tip refining rhinoplasty. Your surgeon can accomplish this by trimming, suturing, and reshaping the cartilage in your lower nose. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and not just a computer animation system. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. FACS Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Open rhinoplasty The base of your nose is wide and your projection is deficient. Also, your nose is inclining to the side and you may have a septal abnormality as well. The tip is bulbous and I recommend an open rhinoplasty to refine your tip, increase tip projection and decrease the width of the base of your nose. Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Wide nose when I smile and asymmetrical nostrils. Improving the nostril width and refining the tip are frequent requests of patients wanting nasal refinement. It is possible to improve the cosmetic appearance of the tip alone without altering the rest of the nose in some patients. Whether the optimal option in your particular situation would be a tip rhinoplasty alone or an artistically performed natural appearing full rhinoplasty would best be determined at a consultation. Either procedure can be performed with a closed or open approach. Following the advice from a surgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you exactly what to do based on limited 2 dimensional photos without examining you, physically feeling the tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical history, and discussing the pros and cons of the operative procedure would not be in your best interest. I would suggest you find a plastic surgeon with extensive nasal surgery experience who is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and ideally a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) or a facial plastic surgeon (otolaryngologist) that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person. Robert Singer, MD FACS La Jolla,California
