The right part of my nose drops lower than the left, it’s also deviated towards the right and lacks contour. What is the appropriate surgery for this ?
Answer: Rhinoplasty Hi, Photos from profile is needed as well to see from that side. As you have thick skin before any operation you need to be treated to make the skin thinner. Then after treatment and detailed examination Closed and Atraumatic Technique Rhinoplasty can give you the result Kind Regards,

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photographs, you may benefit from a septoplasty, septal reset, and spreader grafts to help straighten 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. If you cannot find enough real before and after pictures, then consider continuing your search for a surgeon. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. FACS Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Rhinoplasty to Refine and Reshape the Nose - C shaped nose Every nose is different and unique to that individual. If the appearance of your nose concerns you enough to do something about it, it can be improved with a natural artistically performed rhinoplasty and possible septoplasty. What would be the best option and exact procedure would depend on an in person examination (not just an online consultation) and discussion about desired outcome. Excellent results can be achieved with either a closed or open technique. Keep in mind that following advice from a surgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you exactly what to do and how technically to do it based on two dimensional photos without examining you, physically feeling your tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical history and discussing the pros and cons of the operative procedure would not be in your best interest. Natural appearing results need to be individualized and what is appropriate for one patient is not necessarily the best for someone else. I would suggest that you find a surgeon with extensive rhinoplasty experience certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and one who is ideally a member of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person. Robert Singer, M.D., FACS La Jolla, California

Answer: Rhinoplasty candidate If you're unhappy with the shape of your nose, Rhinoplasty surgery has the ability to reshape the nose and can make it fit more harmoniously with your other facial features. I would recommend starting with a consultation with a board certified facial plastic surgeon that specializes in rhinoplasty surgery. I would recommend writing down the following questions before scheduling your consultation: 1. Are you unhappy with the tip of your nose? 2. Do you feel that your nose is too wide? 3. Do you want to make your nostrils smaller in appearance? 4. Are you looking to decrease the general size of your nose? I hope some of these questions will help you pinpoint what it is that you don't like about your nose. And wish you the best as you research your options when scheduling a rhinoplasty consultation. Sincerely, Philip J. Miller, MD, FACS Double Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon
