Answer: Rhinoplasty I agree your nose looks good. Your tip is somewhat thick and you might consider steroid injections to get better definition

Answer: Polybeak deformity A polybeak deformity occurs when the cartilage of the nasal dorsum is not made, even or in proportion, to the bony dorsum of the nose. Polybeak deformity can also occur when the droop of the nasal tip is not completely corrected and the nasal tip continues to droop after rhinoplasty surgery. It is dependent on the surgical techniques used by the surgeon to rotate a droopy tip and keep it in that position. It is also dependent on the strength of the patient smile muscles, and the facial muscles ability to pull the tip of the nose down. The photos provided, do not include a smiling profile, which would be helpful in evaluating this case. However, by viewing the present photos, it appears you have a little bit of both situations, although the cosmetic result is acceptable, I understand your concern. You don’t say how many months post-op you are. If this rhinoplasty is at least one year post-op, you may consider a secondary surgical procedure to create more definition of the profile and nasal tip. My experience in practice has shown that expert surgical techniques in dealing with the cartilage of the nasal tip, and nasal dorsum, are crucial in creating the definition of a lower portion of the nose that gives the nose and attractive look. Which is the center of the face.
