What can I do to get a softer, more rounded nose tip? Would de-projection be visible from a front-facing view? (photos)

I like most of what you did with your morph -- you lowered the bump on the bridge and de-projected the tip -- but I'd like to see the tip elevated, too. As I mentioned above, when the changes are made to the tip cartilages to deproject the tip, and elevate it, too, the tip tends to get a little less sharp and a little more round. I'd love for your to see some high-quality morphs of these changes -- it would help you in selecting what you feel is a best goal for your nose.
In another question of yours, you asked about excess nostril show from the front with elevating the tip. I don't see that as a problem with your nose. You really have to elevate the tip *a lot* from the profile view in order to get just a small increase in nostril show from the front view.
Remember that rhinoplasty is an exquisitely difficult operation to get right, and you should only have surgery if you are able to make yourself very confident in your surgeon's skills. The changes that your nose needs require advanced techniques, requiring skill that most plastic surgeons don't possess with expertise. For most noses, it's much better to not have surgery than to have inexpertly-performed surgery. Read my essay on how to stay out of trouble while selecting a rhinoplasty surgeon. And for those who have had previous surgery, it also discusses how to tell whether your first surgeon should be performing your revision.
Your nose is also a perfect example of why computer imaging is mandatory in rhinoplasty. You need to know exactly what the surgeon is planning to accomplish -- what features he thinks he can change, and by how much he thinks he can change them. I always email morphs to my online rhinoplasty consultations. When you see the surgeon's goals in the morphs, you'll know whether he has an eye for an attractive nose, and whether he shares your opinion of what constitutes an attractive nose. You'll also know whether the changes he proposes are large enough to be meaningful to you, and whether he understands your wishes enough to address all of your priorities. How would you ever get that figured out without the morphs?

I have deprijected the nose in many hundreds of patients and it can soften the tip and make the nose more proportional on side view.  Because the skin envelope has to shrink to fit the smaller cartilage framework swelling takes longer to resolve and initially the nose will look wider on front view but as swelling resolves this is rarely a problem.

Dear snaplol,Lifting the tip, shaving the dorsum and deprojecting the tip are all the correct maneuvers for achieving the result you are looking forOn frontal view, the nose may look a little wider, but it can also be narrowed with tip sutures.  The answer on how the frontal view will change also depends on what you want and what your nose looks likeFrom these photos, I think you will have a very nice resultBest regards,Dr. NimaBoard Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon
