I am considering and saving up for a rhinoplasty. I would love to have the dorsal hump removed and would like to reduce the droop in the tip, and have the tip of the nose closer to the face. Is it possible to do each of these things, but keep the general appearance of my face mostly the same?
Answer: Thinking about rhinoplasty? What you need to know first Hello, and thank you for providing photos along with your question. Yes, a dorsal hump is a common issue that can be addressed with rhinoplasty, and a good rhinoplasty surgeon should have the skill and experience to achieve natural-looking results. I highly recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with a reputable board-certified facial plastic surgeon, particularly one with a strong rhinoplasty portfolio. Such experts will have the optimal skills, as well as artistry and knowledge of facial aesthetics, harmony, and proportion, helping you achieve the most natural-looking results. During your consultation, your surgeon will evaluate your nose, discuss your concerns and goals, recommend the best surgical approach, and ensure the best possible outcome.

Answer: Natural looking rhinoplasty result Your question is excellent, and it reflects what 99% of my potential rhinoplasty surgical patients ask me. There are many different surgical styles and aesthetics, and the aesthetic that I provide emphasizes a very natural result. This is why my patients want to look different – to make the change, or correction – but without looking unrecognizable. So, to answer your question: yes! You absolutely can have the hump removed, and the tip telescoped and fortified so it does not droop, but you will still look like yourself. What I love most about rhinoplasty surgery is how personalized it can be. It’s always hugely rewarding to remove the splint from my patients when they are 7-10 days postoperative, and to have them say, “It’s amazing! I look like me – but a better version of me!”

Answer: What can be done with your nose? What can be done with your nose? As you point out, you have an over projecting tip and a small dorsal hump. I do not see a drooping of the tip but that usually occurs with a big smile. All of these changes can be brought about during a standard rhinoplasty. Changing the nose does not change any other features of your face

Answer: Rhinoplasty Thank you for your question. You are an excellent candidate for rhinoplasty. I would also recommend a small chin implant. I think rhinoplasty is one of the most beautifying surgeries that we do as plastic surgeons. A large portion of my practice is dedicated to rhinoplasty surgery. It is important to only see plastic surgeons with extensive experience in rhinoplasty, ie perform at least 6 per month and have performed hundreds of cases. Also, critically evaluate on-line galleries to see if their art form resonates with yours. Rhinoplasty is definitely a grey haired plastic surgeon's sport. Best wishes to you.
