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: Tip-plasty + hump removal = Rhinoplasty. After your bump is removed, you would likely require osteotomies to narrow your nose. When bridge work and tip work are combined, tip-plasty becomes rhinoplasty. Hope this helps you! Dr Joseph

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 or tip plasty Rhinoplasty or tip plasty: A tip plasty will make the tip slightly thinner and may slightly deproject the tip. Your whole nose is slightly over projecting and you do have a small bump. if you do just a tip plasty you may make the over projection of the rest of the nose and the small hump appear larger in proportion to the smaller tip. Simply rasping the dorsum without in fracturing the bones may result in a wide flat looking bridge. If you want the nicest nose including the nicest possible profile, a rhinoplasty in my opinion would do a much better job than a limited tip plasty. But how much improvement you are seeking is ultimately up to your own taste.
