My nose is over projected, but also broad/bulbous at the end, as well as pointy. It is also sort of pushed up, but I don't think you can tell from any of the photos. It looks totally different from multiple angles. All feedback is much appreciated. Thank you!
Answer: Am I a good candidate for rhinoplasty? Which rhinoplastic procedures would you recommend? Unfortunately, the photos are quite blurry and don't show enough angles to make a detailed evaluation. There are many different techniques used to address specific cosmetic concerns of the nose. I truly believe that you are best served by seeing a plastic surgeon in your area for a consultation. In my opinion, a rhinoplasty is one of the most challenging surgeries. Find a surgeon that routinely performs rhinoplasties as part of his or her practice. Good luck and be safe.John T. Nguyen, MD, FACS, FICSDouble Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Rhinoplasty for bulbous tip and overly projecting nose It is very difficult to tell from the photographs presented what is going on with your nose. The bulbous tip is best addressed with tip suturing techniques to the lower lateral cartilages, and sometimes a conservative cartilage removal. The overly projecting nose is de-projected with a combination of tip surgery and reduction of the projecting dorsal septum. Once any dorsal hump has been removed, medial and lateral osteotomies are required to close the open roof deformity. The reason your nose looks different from many different angles is that it is probably asymmetrical, so that is also a goal in mind when performing rhinoplasty is to make the nose symmetrical.

Answer: Am I a good candidate for rhinoplasty? Following advice from a surgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you exactly what to do based on limited two dimensional photos without examining you, physically feeling your 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 surgery. Natural appearing results need to be individualized and what is appropriate for one patient is not necessarily the best for someone else. I would suggest that you find a surgeon certified by the American Board of American Plastic Surgery and one who is ideally a member of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person. Robert Singer, M.D., FACS La Jolla,California
