My nasolabial angle is not ideal due to my prominent nasal spine . I believe it gives me a beak look. What is achievable with rhinoplasty? How will it affect the upper lip?
Answer: Reduction rhinoplasty Thank you for your question and sharing your photographs. In a rhinoplasty intervention it is possible to reduce the nasal spine as well as the nasal bridge bump. In general, a reduction on the nasal spine changes the reference plane for assessment of the nose tip projection and makes it appear more prominent. As a result, it would be preferable to reduce slightly the nasal tip projection to produce a balanced appearance of the profile. If instead of using the lines to describe the changes you would use a computer simulation program, it would help you to appreciate this aspect which can be included with the rhinoplasty intervention.

Answer: Anterior nasal spine The fullness at the junction of the nose and upper lip can be caused by a few things. A prominent anterior nasal spine is possible but not as frequent as you might think. You should be able to feel the hard bone protruding. More frequently it is the caudal septum which is too long. Finally, the tip might be pulled too far forward causing. Tenting of the skin. All are easily fixed with rhinoplasty. This is where a good exam is really needed. Good luck.
