For my primary rhinoplasty. I would like a small feminine nose. I am concerned with it looking too projected still, or wider from the front, or piggy. I do not know my skin type but my drooping tip seems to be cartilage. Thank you

Answer: Primary rhinoplasty Many thanks for your enquiry. One of the goals of a rhinoplasty is in achieving an outcome that harmonises with an individual's face. This ideally aims to have a natural appearance which entails having a proportionate level of projection, rotation and length. Consequently, in your scenario, from the limited views in your query, it does seem that decreasing your projection together with refining your profile would be favourable. The ideal nose should not have too great a nostril show (a "piggy" appearance) and would not be the aim typically but your nasal tip may benefit from an element of elevation still. Best Wishes

Answer: Rhinoplasty You seem to be a good candidate for rhinoplasty. Considering that you have mild deviation of distal septum it is very likely that septo-rhinoplasty may be needed. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon, expert in rhinoplasty, is recommended. Good luck.
