when i went in for my consultation, i told my doctor that i had really just wanted the tip lifted so it wouldn't droop so much anymore & in the pictures he edited for me, it looked pretty close to what i had wanted. but after the surgery, the tip of my nose seemed really pointy, the tip drooped even more & i suddenly had extremely flared nostrils. is it possible to make the tip "round" again & make my nostrils smaller/not flared? also, it's been almost two years since the surgery.

If you have concerns regarding the advice you've received from you surgeon it never hurts to seek another consultation. You need to feel comfortable with the choices. If you get a second opinion take copies of your operative report and any surgical diagrams.Michael Sullivan M.D.

Thank you for your question.Once you achieve adulthood, the dorsal hump on your nose, which is made up of bone and cartilage, will not grow. Yes this can be removed by surgery alone.Hope this helps in answering your question.Ivo
