Is this result realistic/achievable? Is it too subtle? (Photo)

Hi , During a rhinoplasty multiple areas in the nose are addressed including the tip. It is better for you to consult with a facial plastic surgeon who can examine you and discuss the surgical procedure and the post op recovery
process.

Thank you for your question and for sharing your photographs. In general, when the nasal tip skin is moderately thick, even with good efforts to narrow the appearance of the tip, the results can appear relatively subtle after the intervention. Computer simulations and actual surgical outcomes are not an exact match, and surgery does not produce highly accurate results compared to the designs.

However, it is feasible to change the contours of your nasal tip along the lines that you are describing. If you are changing the appearance in profile, it is likely that the highlight on the tip of the nose would be positioned higher up as seen from the front view.

Based on your photos, you appear to have relatively thick nasal skin and the lower 1/3 of your nose appears to be relatively flat and wide. Rhinoplasty techniques may be utilized to achieve narrowing of the lower third of your nose along with nasal tip rotation. Please consider meeting with several reputable rhinoplasty specialists who offer computer Imaging so you could see what to expect after well performed surgery. Thank you for your question. Sincerely, Dr Joseph
