Answer: Bulbous Tip Good Afternoon! In my experience, an open rhinoplasty using a structure approach is the most effective. In this technique, we raise the nasal skin through a small incision underneath the nose to expose the cartilage and underlying structure. Cartilage grafts and special suturing are used to help flatten the bulbous structures, thus creating a strong, refined nose. Post-operatively, I have patients tape and I use steroid injections to encourage the skin to "shrink-wrap" around the new, smaller tip. It does take time but the results can be impressive. The cost of rhinoplasty varies regionally but can be anywhere from $4,000 to over $10,000. Hope this helps!

Answer: Rhinoplasty Great question. You will get a variety of answers for the "best" type of rhinoplasty for a bulbous tip, depending on the preferences of the surgeon. There are many other factors, as well, that make you a better or worse candidate for different techniques. Some photographs or an in person examination would be helpful. My personal preference for most cases is an open precision rhinoplasty, because it gives the best visualization and is a very reliable, consistent technique that can be adapted to any nose. Cost will depend a lot on the experience and training of the surgeon, and where geographically the surgery is done. Find a surgeon who has results you like and go in for a consultation!

Answer: Closed or open rhinoplasty to address bulbous feature Thank you for posting your question. Closed rhinoplasty procedures are typically excellent for patients with concerns about scarring and require minimal reshaping and resizing. However, the incision for open rhinoplasty rarely leaves visible scarring if it is performed correctly. More importantly, it is essential to work with an experienced board-certified facial plastic surgeon that can assess your nose and facial features to create a custom procedure plan that results in cohesive features and a natural-looking nose. Your expert physician can recommend an open or closed rhinoplasty based on the types of changes needed.
