I have a very low nose bridge, despite it, my entire face seems balanced enough to where most people think I'm cute. Still, my low bridge is such an overriding feature and it destroys my confidence. I can only imagine how much better Id look with a normal bridge. I attempted a bit of editing and found a desired ideal. But I was wondering if this might be stretching it, since my nose is so short already. Is this achievable with surgery? Can it go higher? Cost estimate? Thank you very much!

Answer: Dorsal augmentation Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photograph, you may benefit from dorsal augmentation of your nasal radix. I prefer to use diced cartilage wrapped in fascia. Cost varies based on geographic region and surgeon expertise. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and not just a computer animation system. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Nose reshaping Thanks for your question! It looks like you did a great job adding a little height to your nasal dorsum. Without a detailed examination in the office, it's tough to tell exactly, but adding height is very achievable and can be done through many different ways. As far as cost, this will depend where in the country and who you go with. Realself can provide some good insight into this. hope this helps and God Bless! Dr. Robb
