How to Fix Broken Nose Tip?

If the tip is still aching a year after the injury, I'd be very hesitant to recommend any surgery before the source of the pain is determined. Neuromas and neuropathic pain syndromes can be aggravated by surgery. So while the tip may look better, the pain could be made worse.
I'd get a good diagnosis about the pain first, if it were me.

The structure in the tip of the nose is essentially determined by the caritlage (similar to gristle in meat). This has a rubber like consistency. Although it is possible to fracture the cartilage, this is very unusual and if it occurs usually effects the septum and not the lower lateral cartilages. Seek the evaluation of a qualified surgeon to determine your options.

What you describe is probably a combination of tip cartilage asymmetry and lack of support. See an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon to outline his plan for what you need. Make sure you think his work is good; see live patients he has done.

Hi Castles,
It is possible to repair your injured nose. During your examination, qualified rhinoplasty surgeons will be able to diagnose what is causing the deformity that troubles you. Once the diagnosis is made, a surgical plan can be outlined to achieve your cosmetic goals.
Most likely the nose that you loved in the past can be restored. Choose your rhinoplasty surgeon most carefully.
Good luck and be well.

As ALL the expert posters are recommending, take pre injury photos to 3 boarded rhinoplasty surgeons. There you can compare the appearance of your nose. It does sound like either a displaced tip cartilage or a fractured septum, you stated you heard a 'crack'. Most likely some type of surgical intervention will be needed. Regards.
