My nose appears to be bulbous and a bit too much projected from the side even though I don’t have a hump. I’ve been wondering if anything could be done to make it less projected without actually changing the front because that would mess it up and make it more prominent. Plus, my skin appears to be thick, which is tricky. I just want it to be flat, less projected and soft all around. I’ll include both my picture and the ones of the nose I’d prefer.

Answer: Open rhinoplasty You have a very broad bony base as well as the cartilage of the tip is broad. You are a candidate for an open rhinoplasty to def-fat the tip, the cartilage made more prominent and the dorsal concavity needs to be corrected as well. This would take 2 hours to perform and costs $8,000. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Thank you for your question. You are an excellent candidate for rhinoplasty. I think it is one of the most beautifying surgeries that we do as plastic surgeons. A large portion of my practice is dedicated to rhinoplasty surgery. It is important to only see plastic surgeons with extensive experience in rhinoplasty, ie perform at least 6 per month and have performed hundreds of cases. Also, critically evaluate on-line galleries to see if their art form resonates with yours. Rhinoplasty is definitely a grey haired plastic surgeon's sport. Best wishes to you.
