M18 and I have a pretty upturned nose with too much nostril show. I was wondering if it would be possible to improve it
Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello! Thank you for your question.As far as I can see from your photos with external graft your goals is mostly achievable. Your surgeon will do this in open rhinoplasty surgery. It would be more convenient to decide with face-to-face consultation. Best Regards!

Answer: Augmentation rhinoplasty Thank you for your enquiry and sharing your photographs. In general terms, the character of the nose can be changed but because the nasal bridge is also relatively low it may be aesthetically advantageous to build bridge and lengthen slightly the tip which will impact on the visibility of the nostrils. Increased projection of the bridge and radix increases the length of the nose at the top end. This way the overall impression is that the nose is stronger on the profile and oblique views as well as to some degree on the front view with the current projection of the nasal bridge, lengthening the nasal tip only could produce the impression that the nose is somewhat elongated in particular on the oblique view. Computer simulations can help to determine your aesthetic goals and outline the elements of a possible surgical plan. A significant build for the nose structure may require rib cartilage to produce the changes.

Answer: Short nose and nostril show It is very likely that rhinoplasty with nose lengthening and cartilage grafts to nostrils, would improve nose appearance. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon, expert in rhinoplasty, is recommended. Good luck.

Answer: Nostril show The nostril show is from upturned tip. A dorsal graft that can push the tip downwards will do the trick. This can be combined with Alarplasty to reduce the show even further. Alarplasty: Alarplasty is a very fine and quick procedure that can narrow the nostrils and reduce the flare to soften the appearance. It has other names as well like ‘Weir Excisions’ or ‘Nostril Reduction’. However, it is important to note that asymmetry of nostrils is common and cannot be corrected with alarplasty.
