I would like a small feminine nose - is deprojection possible? (Photos)

Hi, thank you for your question. It seems that: Deprojection of the tip, tipplasty, wide side bone narrowing, bridge take down and refining-slight elevation of lip tip angle would be major surgical parts. It would be smaller fem. nose. Not too much small! Regards. Cem Altindag

Hi,
Open tip rhinoplasty surgery is a well recognised technique which can address tip droop and over projection without the creation of a piggy nose or disproportionate width of the nasal tip.
In circumstances where poor tip projection is due to insufficient cartilagenous support of the tip, the use of cartilage grafts is also a well recognised technique.
Once you seek the opinion of a qualified and experienced surgeon, these factors as they specifically pertain to your anatomy can be identified and discussed.
Best wishes,
Dr Sugitha Seneviratne

Dear Genuine893590 thank you for your question.
Based on your photos you have a dorsal hump, mild deviation and a good looking nasal tip. A reductive rhinoplasty can give you a straighter dorsum and taking care of the septum and columella cartilage can decrease tip projection as well as straightening your nose.
As usual we should always consider the functional aspect of the nose and evaluate if any work is required to improve breathing.

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

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.

Dear Genuine893590,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos, it looks like you would benefit from rhinoplasty. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

You are a good candidate for rhinoplasty. You need your bridge lowered considerably to get the result you are looking for. Many surgeons are conservative especially in a case like yours. I would do a closed rhinoplasty in your case.

Based on your photos, you appear to have this nasal skin and an overprojected and somewhat crooked nasal appearance. Depending on your examination, rhinoplasty surgery may be considered for achieving a straighter, smaller, more feminine, and less distracting nasal appearance. Hope this helps. Dr Joseph

Hi Genuine893590,
Thanks for your question and sharing your photos. You are a great candidate for a rhinoplasty. Deprojection of your nasal tip is possible. Based on your photos, you have a dorsal hump and an overprojected tip. Your nose has irregular contours from the front view and the tip of your nose appears to curve to the right. All these can be improved with surgical rhinoplasty. The combination of dorsal hump removal, nasal bone narrowing, and tip maneuvers including tip defining sutures and deprojecting techniques will help you achieve your goals. Your septum like is deviated (likely reason for why the tip of the nose curves to the right) and would be corrected in surgery. I highly recommend you see a board certified facial plastic surgeon with extensive rhinoplasty experience.
I hope this helps answer your question!
All the best,Dr. Sanan, MD

Can you get a smaller less projecting nose? Deprojection of the nasal tip is commonly performed during Rhinoplasty, you also appear to have a small dorsal hump and in the front view the nose may have a very small degree of asymmetry. These issues can be addressed during primary rhinoplasty with emphasis on making a smaller less projecting nose.
