Could my bulbous tip ever look small/normal with a rhinoplasty? (photo)

Hi @adrianadema620. Thank you for sending your photos. You would be a great candidate for a rhinoplasty. I recommend seeing an expert rhinoplasty specialist for an in person examination. There are several options for you that can be determined after examination. Best of Luck, Dr. Nima!

This is a great question. While I can’t make a recommendation based on a single photo, you look like you’d make a great candidate for rhinoplasty. Both closed and open techniques can address your concerns by slimming and refining your nasal tip. When performed by a board-certified facial plastic surgeon with plenty of experience in this area, your results should look significant and natural. I highly encourage you to schedule a consultation with a reputable board-certified facial plastic surgeon to discuss your options.

Modern rhinoplasty techniques can both make the tip of your nose narrower and address the deep creases next to the the tip. We can reshape the tip cartilage while adding support to the crease to create a more aesthetically pleasing nose..

To be honest, your tip can be thinned but you have to recognize that, with thick skin, while we can defat it, you will not have the kind of tip that can be created virtually. There are limitations to what can be achieved. Best wishes.

Thank you for the question and photos and you would clearly benefit from a rhinoplasty. So go on some complimentary consultations with experts that use digital photography to show you what can be accomplished with your nose and how it might be done and then look at photos of similar patients and become fully informed about the desired procedure
