I have a low radix and ideally I would like this part of my nose filled out to so I have a straighter profile. What are my best options? Would it be possible to get some kind of implant? I have attached a picture below. The picture on the right is what I would like to achieve. I'd also like to ask approximately how much it might cost to achieve my goals. Thanks in advance.

Yes, the tip does become droopy (under-rotated) as we age which can make the nose appear to grow and become elongated. If you are happy with the size and shape, of the nasal tip, the tip can be rotated upward using a modified tip-plasty without requiring a full Rhinoplasty....
You should be able to resume full activity about six weeks after rhinoplasty. The activities you describe do have their risks , including nasal injury, but that would be true even if you didn't have rhinoplasty performed.
Thanks for the question. I advise my patients to start drinking alcohol, coffee 5-7 days after their rhinoplasty surgery. Therefore you should consult with your surgeon for a reminder form before surgery. I wish you all the best.
