Hello. I am having some difficulty deciding if I should go ahead with a Rhinoplasty or only Tip plasty. A surgeon told me both can be achieved but obviously a Rhinoplasty will give me better results. I have a small bump that surgeon said it can be shaved if going ahead with Tip Plasty. I have included photos. Any advise please? I can't decide. Thank you.

Answer: Rhinoplasty or Tip Plasty? What you need to know Thank you for your question and photos. While a tip plasty would offer some improvement, it would not address the crooked bridge or the small dorsal hump you have. I recommend a full rhinoplasty that would address all concerns at one time and give you the most natural result. Make sure you are working with a very experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon with expertise in rhinoplasty techniques to ensure the best possible results.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Although you may not notice or care now, not addressing your septal deviation, which is contributing to some external asymmetries, you will likely notice after a simple tip plasty and possibly be dissatisfied. Your nose deviates to one side, and your nostrils and tip do as well. This can only be fixed by addressing the septum, which is by definition a rhinoplasty.
