Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photographs, you may benefit from a tip refining rhinoplasty and nasal tip deprojection to make the overall appearance of your nose shorter. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and not just a computer animation system. You should be able to view numerous pictures of actual patients with noses similar to yours performed by your surgeon. If you cannot find enough real before and after pictures, then consider continuing your search for a surgeon.Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. FACS Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Rhinoplasty Thank you for your question. Based on your photos, you would require Septorhinoplasty in order to reduce projection of your nasal tip, refine the tip of your nose and also improve the angle between your lip and your nose which appears to be blunt. Ensure that your surgeon has experience in improving shape of nose (Rhinoplasty) and also nasal functional surgery (Septoplasty) to get the best result. Best wishes
