Do I need a radix reduction? (Photo)

Hi, rhinoplasty can enhance nasal profile including bridge,tip of the nose.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.

Hi!
The radix generally refers to the upper part of the nose and includes the junction of where the nose and forehead/glabella meet. This junction is called the nasofrontal angle and corresponds with the upper starting point of the bridge of the nose. In your case, this angle is at the level of your pupil or slightly lower than that. There are classic aesthetic ideals that state that the angle should sit at the level of the upper eyelid margin or between the lid margin and upper eyelid crease, so in your case I would not recommend lowering it further as this may cause your nose to look quite short. hope that helps and please let me know if you have any further questions.

Hi! A modest radix reduction can refine the angle, giving your nose a vertically shorter appearance, which I would recommend in your case. Paired with a hump reduction and tip plasty, this approach can yield a nose that harmonizes with your facial structure and appears absolutely natural. Hope this helps, best of luck to you!
