Hello, I have had 2 rhinoplasty procedures. The first one was to remove a very large hump, and the second one was to improve my droopy tip. Although my tip has improved when my face is at rest, it still droops tremendously when I smile from the front and the side view. I have narrow, long nostrils but I dont mind them, my overall nose does not bother me except for this droopy issue while smiling. Is the procedure to fix this easy and simple? Or is it complex? Thanks!
