I would like the dip where my nasion meets my glabella to look more like pictures 2 and 3. I feel that the dip is too deep and that it makes my forehead look like its sticking out. I'm looking to get it fixed in the near future.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photographs, you appear to have a low radix. Your radix can be augmented to a higher position with diced cartilage wrapped in fascia (DCF). 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. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G.

Answer: Deep radix Your radix (name of the area you mention) is deep. You can address this with fillers. Of course there are surgical options to lower the forehead and build up the nose so you can have a more drastic profile change. Consult a facial plastic surgeon to over the details and the options
