20 months post-op closed rhinoplasty. Underprojected tip and wide alar - possible revision? (photos)

Asked By:Graceful903651 in Frisco, Texas, Estados Unidos

I’m 10 months postop closed rhinoplasty. I’m generally happy with it but now have an underprojected tip and wide alar. I want an alarplasty or revision to project the tip + make it less rounded. Tip is still swollen so it may become less rounded. I don’t mind the under projection as much as the tip shape and wide alar. My pre-nose was more projected which I preferred, I like long noses. What should I do? Would an alarplasty without fixing the tip be ok? Would just adding projection fix the alar?
