I am primarily concerned with my wide nose and bulbous tip and not so much with adding height to my nose. I want to avoid getting any kind of implant in my nose, because I want my nose to look natural and not perfect. Would a rhinoplasty with alarplasty/tip refinement be enough to make my nose slimmer and more feminine? Thanks!
Answer: Tip Refinement Dear Rihann224,The goals that you are looking for are realistic and achievable. The tip can be refined while leaving the rest of your nose alone to keep a natural look. It is best to have an in-person consultation so we can examine you and show you morphs of what is possible. When you are ready, please visit a rhinoplasty specialist who can address your concerns and answer your questions.Best regards,Nima Shemirani

Answer: Asian tip rhinoplasty Giving more projection along the lower half of your nose will have an overall thinning effect along with giving more tip definition. In almost all primary cases, your internal septal cartilage can be used to accomplish this. Your alae will narrow as well, but if you wanted further narrowing, a conservative reduction could be performed.

Answer: Asian Rhinoplasty Based on your photos, it does appear that refining the tip of your nose and creating more height and projection to the bridge and tip of your nose will make a nice change to your overall appearance. The safest, most permanent option for building up your nose is using tissue from your own body. Any synthetic implant will always have a higher risk of infection, migration or extrusion than your own tissue (such as ear cartilage or rib cartilage). Dorsal augmentation (building your bridge) with diced cartilage wrapped in fascia (DCF) provides predictable, reliable, consistently excellent results and becomes incorporated fully into your nose, unlike silicone. The most consistent results, however, come from the surgeon, not the technique. An in-person evaluation by a specialist in Asian cosmetic surgery will allow you to consider the treatment options for improving the contour of your face.

Answer: Asian rhinoplasty with alarplasty etc. Asian rhinoplasty with alarplasty with tip narrowed etc. can be done without any other parts of rhinoplasty. It really depends on what kind of a nose you like and what things you wish changed. The most important thing is select the surgeon who does natural noses and who will do what you want changed.

Answer: Tip plasty with alar base reduction Its true that many surgeons recommend dorsal augmentation with tip and alar (nostril) surgery in asian patients, but this is not true for everyone. You are a great candidate for tip and nostril refinement because you prefer it! Be sure to discuss your case with a specialist and best of luck!
