what else procedure should be perform to make my nose base narrow and make my tip and cartilage slim
Answer: Rhinoplasty to narrow the nose Performing osteotomies (the hammer that is used in surgery to fracture the bone in a controlled fashion) is one of the techniques to narrow the bony portion of the nose. As far as the lower two thirds of the nose, cartilaginous techniques to narrow and refine the midvault, tip and nostril are often needed to accompany the former and thus achieve more defined and balanced aesthetics overall.

Answer: Slimming the nose Great question! The upper portion of the bridge is composed of bone. The only way to narrow this is to fracture the bones on both sides and bring them in to narrow the bridge. The tip of the nose is made of cartilage and the excess cartilage can be excised to create a slimmer appearance. Although the notion of "breaking the bone" seems a bit dramatic, the healing process is not nearly as bad or painful as most patients believe.Best of luck and hope this information helps!- Dr. Roger Tsai @DrRogerTsai

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photograph, you may benefit from a tip refining rhinoplasty. Your surgeon can accomplish this by trimming, suturing, and reshaping the cartilage in your lower nose. You may also benefit from an alar base reduction. Osteotomies may also be beneficial. 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. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. FACS Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Do I need nasal bone breaking process to make my nose slim? 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. 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
