Can liquid rhinoplasty fix bony flare near rhinion or do I need surgery? (Photo)

Based on what I see in your singular photograph, you appear to have thin nasal skin, and I agree that your nasal bones appear a bit wide at the bony cartilaginous junction, also called the rhinion. It is conceivable that we could add volume to the side walls of your nose, above and below the wide area, for a straighter bridge appearance on front view. In our practice, we advocate the use of microdroplet Silikon-1000 injections for permanent results. I hope this helps! Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photograph, i would not recommend filler injections. This will make your nose look larger. You are a great candidate for rhinoplasty. Maneuvers for your surgery would include dorsal hump reduction, tip refinement, nasal tip deprojection, tip elevation, among other maneuvers. With good surgical technique, you could have an outstanding result. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified rhinoplasty surgeon who can evaluate you in person.

Best wishes and good luck.

When a liquid rhinoplasty is done, filler is injected under the skin. When you put something *in*, the nose gets *bigger*.
Those little lateral bumps are usually an outward flare of bone and also a little cartilage. If your profile is good, and if your nasal bones are in a narrow-enough position, it could be that you only need to have those lateral bumps shaved off.
