Is it possible to perform a tip-only rhinoplasty with an Asian patient?

If you have good tip support, and your skin is extremely thin, then you may be a candidate for tip suturing along to create greater definition. However, most Asian patients will have weak tip support and thicker skin, requiring additional support than what your intrinsic tip cartilage can provide to create refinement.

Hi from Istanbul! Yes, a surgeon can perform a tip-only rhinoplasty using either an open or closed approach, which is often suitable for Asian patients with similar concerns. In this procedure, the focus is on reshaping the nasal tip without altering the dorsum.

Interdomal sutures can effectively correct a fleshy, droopy tip by bringing the nasal tip cartilages closer together for better definition and support. In some cases, additional cartilage from the septum, ear, or a donor rib may be used for enhanced definition.

I perform hundreds of ethnic rhinoplasties each year, and it is very important to consult with a surgeon experienced in ethnic rhinoplasty to assess your nasal anatomy and recommend the best approach for your goals. It's also important that your aesthetic vision aligns with theirs for the best possible outcome. Hope this helps, best of luck!

The fleshiness of the tip means that you likely need to add something in there to build up strength be it an implant or your own cartilage. I doubt interdomal sutures will be enough to give you any kind of real result.
