How to Correct my Drooping Nose Tip?

If you're a woman, an attractive angle between your nose and upper lip may be between 95 and 100 degrees. In our practice, we do not cut the depressor septi muscles. Droopy nasal tips are typically addressed by reconstructing the alar tip cartilages for a more pleasing appearance. We also add support to prevent drooping with a columellar shoring strut that may be custom carved from your septal cartilage. Hope this helps. Dr Joseph

It’s virtually impossible to make a specific recommendation in this particular case without pictures or a physical examination. For this reason, it’s important to consult a board certified plastic surgeon who can perform a comprehensive evaluation and formulate a treatment plan.
                In general terms, droop of the nasal tip can occur for a variety of reasons. In this particular case nasal drooping appears to be associated with smiling. When this type of animation deformity occurs it’s usually always related to muscles that insert onto the nasal tip.
                Under these circumstances, division of the depressor septi muscle can result in significant improvement. In some cases support of the nasal tip with cartilage grafts may be necessary as well. When these steps are taken clinical results are excellent and levels of patient satisfaction are high.

Hello,The good news is that is there is a relatively simple and extremely safe approach to correcting this with our scarless technique.  The key is to rotate the nose upwards and prevent the excess pulldown when smiling. We utilize multiple maneuvers to carefully rotate the tip of the nose to lift it to an elegant height and design without any telltale signs of surgery. By doing this via a scarless (closed) approach, there are no external cuts ever on your nose.  This prevents the dreaded complication of external scarring at the base of the nose, which even if rare, if it occurs, is devastating.  Through a scarless approach you can accomplish almost everything needed to be done to the nose with no scarring, less healing time, less bruising, and less swelling. Consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon for an in person consultation. All the best, Deepak Dugar, MDScarless Rhinoplasty ExpertBeverly Hills, CA 90210
