I’m sorry I don’t know a lot about rhinoplasty. I was wondering if since I have a hooked nose when I smile, if you are able to just cut it off because I have pushed the bottom up and it stays the way I want – where my nose doesn’t effect my smile. Thank you for your feedback.

Answer: Is It Possible to Just Cut the Bottom Part of the Tip of the Nose? It seems that what you are describing is a dynamic tip. There is a muscle called the depressor septi nasi that can accentuate the tip while smiling, and occasionally while talking. This would need to be modified in order to change that quality of your nose. Nasal tip surgery is far more intricate and thoughtful than merely removing the tip. Through nasal tip surgery, there would be modifications made to the tip that may shorten its length or narrow it, but these are done in a manner that is mindful to the other components of your nose. Alternatively, if the tip movement is your sole concern with your nose, you can try a small amount of Botox in the muscles that animate the tip to dampen some of its movement.

Answer: Rhinoplasty for Droopy Tip It is possible to change the droopiness of the tip without changing the overall appearance of the tip. Rather than cut off the portion that is droopy, it is repositioned and supported so that when you smile the tip doesn't dip down. Additionally, when not smiling it will not appear droopy. When this is accomplished the tip will feel much more firm and supported.
