Not sure if it’s from long nose, age or botched crows feet Botox that dropped my cheeks and made my smile feel tight but my smile looks weird. The inside of my lip now flips out when I smile and there’s a deep crease under my nose. Will I need a Rhinoplasty to fix this or is there no fix?

Answer: Rhinoplasty You would benefit from a rhinoplasty. The nasal-lip angle is less than 90 degrees and it should be 110 degrees. This may also affect the crease above the lip. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello and thank you for your question. Rhinoplasty can be designed to help improve the upper lip appearance. Based on your photographs, you are a great candidate for rhinoplasty. Maneuvers for your surgery would include dorsal hump reduction, tip refinement, nasal tip deprojection, tip elevation, among other maneuvers. With good surgical technique, you could have an outstanding result. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified rhinoplasty surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. Harvard-trained plastic surgeon
