I have the nose on the left and want the right nose. PLEASE READ - important: How is that being achieved practically? How can I get the definition in the nasal bridge right to the tip? My nose still has that fat triangular form. The area next to the supratip is wide instead of "going in" to have that definition -- as being shown in the second picutre on the right with the RED arrows, indicating what I WANT TO HAVE; and one the left with GREEN what I want to have CUT OUT from my nose essentially
Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello,The processes of a well planned and executed rhinoplasty will yield the kind of results you are illustrating, through bony infracture and tip cartilage manipulation. Go visit a few ABPS certified/ASAPS member surgeons (or an AAFPRS equivalent) who specialize in rhinoplasty. Best of luck!

Answer: Rhinoplasty Candidate You have a bulbous tip, which can be reshaped and a dorsal hump. Your nose bridge can be narrowed to achieve a slimmer result. I would recommend starting with a consultation with a board certified facial plastic surgeon that specializes in rhinoplasty surgery to discuss if rhinoplasty can address your concerns.

Answer: Refining an ethnic nose Every nose needs to be assessed as to the anatomy of all the nasal cartilages, bones, subcutaneous tissues and the skin. Only then can the proper surgical approach be formulated. An experienced and talented rhinoplasty surgeon will be able give prospective patients a reasonable estimation of the degree of refinement that is possible. In your particular case, a properly performed nasal bones in-fracture, as well as nasal tip sculpting with possible tip graft would created a pleasing appearance. Only an in person evaluation can determine whether your desired result can be achieved.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Thank you for your photos. What you show can be achieved with a surgical rhinoplasty. Rather than cutting out those areas, your cartilage will be trimmed and repositioned to achieve an appropriate appearance while stay maintaining your nasal airways for normal function. It is best to have an in-office examination to determine the best treatment plan for your nose and to evaluate your skin envelope. You do have moderate thickness skin however, with adequate cartilage support and manipulation, the skin should still be able to shrink and drape in a way that improves the definition of your nose. Hope this helps!Johnson C. Lee, MD
