Yes, from the looks of the photo, the cartilage on the left side of your nose is more prominent. This can be corrected by re-structuring or re-positioning the cartilage and/or correcting a septal deviation which may be pushing it over to that side.
Dear Atwater The difference between the two sides of your nose can be significantly improved with a rhinoplasty. This would likely entail an outpatient procedure with a 2 week downtime. If there is a septal deviation and breathing difficulty involved, both the inside and outside can be repaired at the same time, otherwise, just the outside can be reshaped. Look for an experienced surgeon who is certified by the American Board of Plastic surgery (or Facial). See more than one consultation so you can make a well informed decision.
Rhinoplasty for the bulbous tip and probable septal deviation.Yes this can be corrected with a rhinoplasty performed by a very experienced rhinoplasty surgeon. Look at results of the surgeons work and do not rely on imaging.
Thank you for providing a photo ofyour nose. Based on your photo, it does appear that a Rhinoplasty may help achievemore symmetry to your nose; however an examination is important to determine thefeasibility of any surgical procedure. The best doctor to consult with is a boardcertified plastic surgeon who performs Rhinoplasty surgery routinely. Thisdoctor will be able to answer your questions and provide a better idea of whatto expect for your surgical results. You appear to be a good candidate and I hope you research your options. Best of luck!
The nasal area that you dislike and would like improved can be addressed with an artistically performed natural appearing nasal surgery (rhinoplasty) and possible septoplasty.Keep in mind that following the advice from a surgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you what to do based on a limited two dimensional photo without examining you, physically feeling the tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical history, and discussing the pros and cons of each operative procedure would not be in your best interest. I would suggest you find a plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and ideally a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) or facial plastic surgeon (ENT) that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person.Robert Singer, MD FACSLa Jolla, California
It would open rhinoplasty with cartilage trimming and repositioning. A cartilage graft to the tip will redefine your nose beauti
A rhinoplasty procedure can address the asymmetrical tip. The excess cartilage can be removed on the convex side, and sometimes a cartilaginous graft is applied to the concave side.
Thank you for your question and photo and the simple answer is YES the difference can be corrected but a full examination is needed to fully inform you as to howDr Corbin
The left side of your nose has a lower lateral cartilage that bulges out in a way that the right side does not. That can be easily corrected to make both sides more symmetrical and even.
Yes, from your photo, it looks like one of your two lower lateral cartilages (the left one) is larger than your right. This occurs commonly, and it is something that a routine tip rhinoplasty could correct. The proceudure would take under an hour to perform, could be done under general or local anesthesia with sedation, and could be performed on an outpatient basis. Seek out a board certified plastic surgeon with extensive rhinoplasty experience. Best wishes, Dr. Lepore.
Hello Katy,Under no circumstances should you ever intentionally break your nose. Besides the risks to your nose and overall appearance if you were ever contemplating surgery a break makes it harder to get the result you want. I understand the desire for improvement but this is not...
From your photos, I would agree with your surgeon. A straight dorsum will look better than a curved (concaved) one. In the "wish" photo you posted, the woman actually has a straight dorsum. It just looks curved because the nasal tip projects beyond the dorsum. Show this...
For rhinoplasty surgeons in Canada, Dr. Asaria in Toronto is outstanding, conscientious, and very personable. I would recommend meeting with him.Best of luck,Dr. Donath
