Hoping to get a professional opinion on best rhinoplasty procedure for my Asian nose. Not considering synthetic implant (Photo)

lglarracas Nov 27, 2022
My biggest insecurities are my frontal view, my wide nasal bones and bulbous tip. Im deciding between two procedures: 1. rib rhinoplasty - augment bridge and tip (& possible osteotomy) or 2. osteotomy, alar and tiplasty (using ear cartilage). I've been told that my bridge is a pretty adequate height for an asian nose, so I'm wondering if I were to opt for the 2nd procedure if that would provide harmonious results? I also feel that my current nose caused my mouth to protrude.

That absolutely looks abnormal. I hope you were able to see someone about it to see what it is and if it needs to be removed as it can be a source for possible infection. Good luck!
