How can I help with tip shape when smiling? (Photo)

Question

I have had two rinoplasties and I am still unhappy with the “V” shape my nose makes when I smile. A few surgeons have declined further work on it.. They were both open rhinos with no cartiledge used from elsewhere.

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photograph, you may benefit from tip elevation with stabilizing tip support to help prevent tip droop with smiling. With good surgical technique, you could have an outstanding result. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.

Best wishes and good luck.
