I have a bulbous nose and it droops when I smile. Would I be a good fit for rhinoplasty
Answer: Bulbous and droopy tip Yes, you are a good candidate for rhinoplasty. A tip plasty can reduce the projection of the tip and the droopiness as well. You will not need any other components of rhinoplasty which makes it easier. The recovery is a lot quicker and the risk of bruising is significantly reduced. Regards Dr. J

Answer: Addressing the bulbous tip with Rhinoplasty Surgery Hi, thank you for your question! After reviewing your pictures and understanding that your main concern is the tip of your nose, which you are describing as bulbous and droopy, I can see that the tip is tilting especially while smiling. It is a common case with many patients and indeed, this can be improved with Rhinoplasty surgery. I would say most likely open technique must be performed in order to alter the shape of the tip and some type of Alar Base reduction would be recommended as well.

Answer: Are you a candidate for rhinoplasty? What You Need to Know Hello and thank you for your question. A bulbous tip or droopy nose is a common issue that can be addressed by rhinoplasty. From these images, I think you may benefit from the procedure. Refining the nasal bridge and tip can give you beautiful and natural-looking results. However, because of rhinoplasty’s complexity, I highly recommend an in-person consultation with a reputable board-certified facial plastic surgeon. A skilled and experienced surgeon should be able to perform an accurate assessment through a visual examination of your profile, determine your eligibility for the procedure, and provide the best outcome possible.

Answer: Reduction rhinoplasty Thank you for your question and sharing your photographs. The nasal tip skin appears to be intermediate or thin in your case which means that reduction rhinoplasty intervention with increased nasal tip definition allows more flexibility. A computer simulation can help you determine the degree of change that you would like to achieve but bearing in mind that simulations from the front view are considerably more limited in scope.

Answer: Are you a good candidate for Rhinoplasty? Are you a good candidate for Rhinoplasty? Your nose appear slightly long and over projecting, with a bulbous tip which droop slightly and probably more so when you smile. All these issues are standard in a primary Rhinoplasty. You would therefore be an excellent candidate for primary Rhinoplasty

Answer: Rhinoplasty Thank you for your question. You are an excellent candidate for rhinoplasty, I think it is one of the most beautifying surgeries that we do as plastic surgeons. A large portion of my practice is dedicated to rhinoplasty surgery. It is important to only see plastic surgeons with extensive experience in rhinoplasty, ie perform at least 6 per month and have performed hundreds of cases. Also, critically evaluate on-line galleries to see if their art form resonates with yours. Rhinoplasty is definitely a grey haired plastic surgeon's sport. Most plastic surgeons like to perform lip lift procedures at a separate time. Best wishes to you.
