What is the best treatment for mild rhinophyma?

Question

My dermatologist recommended dermabrasion for mild rhinophyma but stated, due to the difficulty of resurfacing, the tip of my nose could not be treated. Is this a standard problem? Is there a better alternative which would allow more satisfactory results?

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

Rhinophyma can be improved with a combination of laser resurfacing, chemical peels, Melapads, and dermabrasion. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles
