Bone reaches my nose tip, if i press on my tip , i instantly reach bone. Does this mean my nose tip has a better chance to stay elevated?
Answer: Why does it feel like I have more bone than cartilage in my nose? The bone in my nose goes down to the tip. Hi. There is no bone that goes all the way to your tip so relax. If you desire an aesthetic improvement of your nose then a personal consultation is indicated. Good luck, Dr PG

Answer: Long nasal bones There are variations in nasal anatomy where some people have longer nasal bones than others. However, even though you feel like the bone reaches all the way down to your nasal tip, I am sure there is some cartilage in between, though it can feel firm like bone. Long nasal bones are usually an advantage for those who undergo rhinoplasty surgery compared to those with short bones. Hope this helps!

Answer: Nose Bone What you feel is septal cartilage, not bone. Even if it were, it would be of no meaningful concern unless there was functional obstruction or cosmetic deformity.

Answer: Bone versus cartilage in the nose The nasal bones only represent the upper 20-30% of the entire nose. The midportion of the nose is composed of the upper lateral cartilages, while the lower part of the tip is composed of the lower lateral cartilages. The quadrangular cartilage composes the front part of the nasal septum which is palpable. For more information, and anatomical diagrams, please see the link and video below
