The only thing I do not like about my nose is the droopy tip. I want to get a rhinoplasty really bad, but I will be just turning 18 and will need my parents to fund it. Would it cost less just because the only thing I want fixed is that droopy tip? I don't have a hump or bump or anything else on my nose, the tip just droops down especially when I smile.

Answer: Thinking about Rhinoplasty Dear crazzy, thank you for your question. Rhinoplasty is a popular procedure that can dramatically change one's appearance. Consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon who can perform computer imaging to show you what may be possible. Before and after photos are a good way to evaluate your surgeon. Good Luck!

Answer: Tip-plasty versus full Rinoplasty Without pictures it impossible to give an opinion as to whether or not a tip-plasty versus a full rhinoplasty is required. The majority of patients need a full rhinoplasty to make sure all the nasal cartilages,( upper lateral and lower lateral cartilages) and nasal bones are all within balance of each other.To prevent the tip from drooping when smiling, releasing the depressor septi ligament will prevent this. Is also an important make sure the nose balances with your facial features.
