I have thick skin, with a bulbous tip I believe. I want a rhinoplasty but I don't want it to look pinched as well as too animated. I want it to keep my ethnic background but also look way better and slim and a lot of difference, not ones that look totally similar with minimum change. I feel that is a waste of money. I want to know what can be achieved. Can I achieve my goal pictures?

Answer: Rhinoplasty expectations Thank you for question. Certainly individual results always vary and to expect your nose to look just like Nora, the woman in your goal pictures, would be unrealistic. However, in order to have a similar profile the biggest factor would be to change where your nasal bridge starts. Yours starts quite low on your nose. Nora's comes off almost between her eyebrows. In order to achieve a look somewhat similar you would need an augmentation rhinoplasty. Some material, biological or synthetic, would need to be implanted on the upper portion of the bridge of your nose in order to accomplish this. Hope this helps and good luck!

Answer: Realistic changes after rhinoplasty Can you attain the nose to which you aspire? In a single word....no. Rhinoplasty is very much the art of the possible. The South Asian nose has some anatomic restrictions, some of which could not be attained to your satisfaction. This doesn't mean that you would not benefit from having nasal surgery, but you should seek several opinions in my view so that your expectations are calibrated to what is possible. If you are not willing to accept the limitations, the you should not have the surgery.
