I like that my tip goes down and I dislike how many operations turn the tip up. I want a subtle change and I like my frontal view. Also I'm scared of the surgery but I think my nose is too big for the non surgical procedure.

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 a conservative dorsal hump reduction. 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. Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Recommendations Depend on Expectations It is important to understand that the term "nonsurgical Rhinoplasty" is somewhat of an overstatement. It's somewhat like calling a bicycle a "carbon-free Ferrari"; there are some parallels but still remain very distinct entities. This terminology refers to use of fillers in the nose, generally to raise the bridge in specific circumstances. The photos show a dorsal hump and a somewhat bulbous tip, both of which would best be addressed with a Rhinoplasty, performed by experienced hands.
