Is possible to enlarge my nose after rhinoplasty? And to widen the area between my eyes too? (Photo)

I gotas revision surgery a year and a half ago, doctor made me osteotomies and made my nose short. Also, he narrowed the sacerdote between my eyes and now I would like to look similar as I was before, because I didn't ask any of this, I just wanted a bump shaving. It is possible to do something with my nose? How real are my expectations, I'm kind o depressed. My eyes look hollow and ugly now :(

Your surgeon's plan is reasonable and it will not require much change to be more pleasing in proportion. Good luck with your surgery.

Your photo shows what is known as a bulbous tip.  This is round and lacks definition.  A rhinoplasty can improve the contours of the tip, but a good result can be hindered by excess fibrofatty nasal tissue.  For best results I recommend skin treatment for the nose for a few months before sur...
