What can I do about my tip being stuck out more on one side? (photos)

April 10, 2023
Asked By:lucyjardine32 in England, United Kingdom

I had a rhinoplasty nearly 3 years ago and have alwyas been self conscious about my tip from one side. I thought it was scar tissue making it look bulbous but I’ve realised it must be cartilage. I don’t know why one side is so straight and one side is sticking out. It makes one side look upturned which is what I hate. Please can anyone give advice.

Selcuk Inanli, MD says:

Hello! Thank you for your question.From the photo you shared it looks like you have thick skin. The swelling can stay longer on patients with thick skin. I recommend you to wait 6 more months (so to be 1 year post-op) to see the final result. If by then you are still unhappy with your nose, you...

Will composite ear graft to bring down the alar rim give me an aesthetically pleasing result?
Steven M. Denenberg, MD says:

Of course there's the caveat that I haven't had the chance to examine you in person, but... in my experience, a composite graft to lower a nostril edge is used when the edge needs to come down *a lot*, and I don't see your nose that way. It's also technically very difficult, and sometimes only...
