I have had 3 nose jobs and my last surgery finally made my nose a lot better. I would just like a smaller tip can I do that only? I have thick skin, I used to be oily but I took accuntane and that shrunk my nose a lot. How much does it usually cost? I want the same shape just smaller and a bit more defined.

Answer: Tip-plasty Your nose is a little bulbous on front view. That being said, the more times you operate on the nose the less the skin can stretch and the more chance that you will see edges of cartilage below the skin. I don't know how well you are breathing but a smaller nose can decrease your ability to breath as well. I would personally avoid synthetic/plastic material in the nose, especially after 3 surgeries, as it tends to show through the skin as you age and has the potential to become infected as long as it is in the nose. You are very pretty and the enemy of good is perfect. Hope you make a good decision.

Answer: "it depends" it depends on:1. what was done/not done during your previous surgeries2. how much of your tip aesthetics are secondary to cartilage issues3. whether your surgery was done open or closed and how much scarring/support your nasal tip hasonce you have gotten up the confidence, an exam with a qualified surgeon ought to shed light on these issues and help you decide whether or not this is worthwhilegood luck
