What do you think would be more fit for me, a rhinoplasty or to fix my chin? (Photos)

Hello and thank you for your question and the pictures. Addressing the shape of your nose (especially the nasal tip) is actually one of the most common reasons people seek out and undergo a rhinoplasty. An open septorhinoplasty can best address both your aesthetic concerns and any functional issues with your nose. I would be able to adjust the size, shape, and definition of your nose (particularly the tip)! It also appears you have a "weak chin" relative to the rest of your facial features- the best way to properly address this is with a chin implant to improve the overall harmony of your facial features, especially from your side profile. It's actually pretty common to need both procedures instead of just the rhinoplasty!

This truly a surgery of millimeters- and whether you're looking for a minor adjustment or a major transformation, it requires exceptional surgical skill to achieve functional and natural-looking results! Because your nose is the DEFINING feature of your face- I would only recommend seeing a surgeon who specializes in rhinoplasty procedures, and who has significant training and experience performing these surgeries. I actually trained under one of the world leading rhinoplasty experts (who performs 1,000+ nosejobs annually). I also trained under a world-renowned master of complex facial aesthetics!

I recommend for you to setup a formal consultation with me (or another plastic surgeon who is extremely comfortable with both rhinoplasties and chin implants) to thoroughly discuss your surgical goals, undergo a formal examination, evaluate your options, and develop a personalized plan just for you. I hope this helps!

While your photos show you could have some benefit from both procedures, if you had to pick one, placing a chin implant will improve your side profile the most. Your side profile would line up better then. Rhinoplasty at the same time would also be beneficial to refine your tip. Be sure to see a facial specialist for consultation.

Since you do not state that you have severe dissatisfaction with the appearance of your nose, and since you have a pleasing nasal profile appearance, you also appear to have a somewhat retrususive chin appearance. Depending on your examination, chin implant surgery may lead to a more projected profile chin appearance and an improved aesthetic balance as well. I hope this is helpful! Sincerely, Dr Joseph
