I am attempting to lower my nasal angle to lessen my nostril exposure from the front. I also want some of the projection removed. I have seen 3 facial plastic surgeons who do not think this procedure is easy or wise. Are there other options(these were maxofacial/ENT dr's) Questions: is my specific need a difficult procedure and should I seek out opinion out-of-state? Question 2: me and all 3 of the dr's agree'd that I am a candidate for chin implant of up to 1 cm.
Answer: Chin Augmentation May Balance an Overpronounced Nasal Tip Hello Straxville,It would benefit you to find a surgeon who is both a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon and a Board-Certified ENT. These are the unique qualifications that bring many patients to my door. A chin implant combined with reduction of your columellar show would help you achieve the more balanced look you desire. In addition you might consider a small graft to your nasion region (the point at which your nose meets your forehead) which would reduce the appearance of your nasal projection in profile view.Best Regards,Lane Smith, MD, FACS

Answer: Rhinoplasty and chin implant combination candidate The photo displays over projecting nasal tip and significant columellar show with a high nasolabial angle. Reducing the nasal spine, reducing the columellar show(Collumellar-plasty) by trimming back skin and cartilage can help with the downward rotation of the nose and help with the bottom heavy look and nostril show. The goal would be to de-project and de-rotate the nose. Placing a small chin implant through a sub mental approach will give more projection to the chin and give the illusion that the nose has been de-projected. Chin implants are manufactured in a variety of sizes and shapes, are composed of Silastic and can be inserted under either local or general anesthesia.

Answer: Rhinoplasty for de-projection of the nasal tip and chin implant. Rhinoplasty for de-projection of the nasal tip and chin implant. You will need an extension septal graft and possible graphs to both alas in order to lengthen the nose. I would need to examine this to give you a proper answer.

Answer: Candidate for rhinoplasty? A chin implant would definitely bring a bit more balance to your face and lessen your rhinoplasty needs. You need a bit of deprojection or your tip and correction of the columellar show. This would likely result in the improvement you are looking for. This is not necessarily a very difficult operation, but you do have to find a surgeon with a wide expertise in rhinoplasty. Best of luck.
