How to fix nose widening when I smile? (Photo)

Asked By:borntoflex in 93015

So I am wondering if an alarplasty will fix this since it seems like a muscle attachment issue because at rest my nose does not appear wide at the base, only when I smile. I am interested in a tip plasty ... I am not unhappy with my bridge I don't have a dorsal hump or wide bridge. However I do have a bulbous tip. My question is if I need both an alar plasty and a tip plasty? Or would doing a tip plasty fix the issue? Will any surgery fix the widening while smiling?
