Is it possible to restore a "boxy tip shape" to a nose that was drastically narrowed and pointed? (Photo)

Asked By:misselysianfields in Boston, Massachusetts

hi! I am considering a revision rhinoplasty as I am approaching 1yearPO and realizing the surgeon failed to hold true to his promises- to keep my boxy tip. It is drastically narrowed now, to a curved tip. It does not fit or suit my face, and is asymmetric, and I'm wondering if it would be possible at all to "rebuild" a boxy cartilage tip to the nose. I hardly ever see results like this, and I'm just wondering if it's possible. Thank you
