Hydrocortisone to thin thick bulbous nose tip?

Even with thick skin there is usually some dirty vehicle improvement to be had. If you’re interested further submit photos or go on some consults.

The shape and size of the tip of your nose is most likely caused by the shape and size of the underlying tip cartilages. Application of a topical steroid would not affect those structures nor cause meaningful change to the thickness of your nasal tip skin. Injection of steroids could lead to discoloration and loss of normal texture of the skin.

Thank you for the question and I would go on some consultations with experts that use digital photography to show you what can be accomplished with your nose and how it might be done and then look at photos of similar patients and become fully informed about the desired procedure. That said cortisone will not thin your tip!
