I am planning on getting my nose done. I have small (ish) lips and my chin isn't bad but not as great as I want it to be. I eventually want slight fillers in my lips/jawline but it wouldn't be for a few years. For my nose, my biggest problem is the length and width at the bottom, but I'm nervous that because of my lips/ chin I may not be able to achieve as much of a difference as I want to, and/or that when I get fillers down the road my nose will not be as proportionate than if I had waited.
Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello and thank you for your question. It would be helpful to view a picture of your face so that your nose and chin/lip proportions could be evaluated. It is important to take into consideration facial proportions when performing a rhinoplasty. From your description, it sounds like you may need a nasal tip deprojection to shorten the overall length of your nose. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and not just a computer animation system. You should be able to view numerous pictures of actual patients with noses similar to yours performed by your surgeon. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G.

Answer: Rhinoplasty harmony with chin and lips You are insightful into the relationships between nose, lips and chin - this is already a great advantage. In general, I do not think that your appearance will be out of proportion because of thin lips - and I would not change the aesthetic rhinoplasty goals. The chin deserves a slightly different analysis. For instance, if you would have a strong chin, the nose should not be too small because otherwise the nose will appear larger. For patients with a weak chin, the nose appears larger and chin enhancement will greatly improve the overall facial balance.How this effects you in particular deserves an in-person analysis and discussion with your rhinoplasty surgeon. Best of luck!

Answer: Role of lip/chin in rhinoplasty planning Hello. Thanks for your question. The relationship of the nose, lips, and chin is indeed important in planning a rhinoplasty and in working to create a harmonious facial appearance. in many cases, it may be advisable to perform rhinoplasty and genioplasty (chin reshaping) simultaneously. It would be very helpful to view your facial photographs to better answer your question. You still can get a good result from rhinoplasty without lip/chin modification, but the overall outcome may be enhanced by combining them. Finally, your lip position is affected by the position of the jaws; it would be important to know whether you have a dentoskeletal issue that might benefit from treatment as well. As you can see, there are many issues to consider, and a well-trained surgeon with expertise in rhinoplasty and craniofacial surgery would best be able to advise you. All the best.

Answer: rhinoplasty candidate When performing a rhinoplasty procedure, all the components of the nose must be balanced with themselves, and the entire new nose must balance with patient's facial features. The nose is a three-dimensional structure, and rhinoplasty is performed in all three dimensions. Choose your surgeon wisely based upon extensive experience
