Good evening, I am a 27 year old boy, I would like to shorten just the tip of the nose. I would like to know if it is possible to make a "rinotip" or would the septum be affected? I attach photos of how it is now and how I would like it more or less. Thanks so much!
Answer: Isolated tip adjustment The short answer is yes, it is possible to reduce the tip projection and length and maintain the bridge.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photographs, you may benefit from a tip refining rhinoplasty, a cephalic rotation of your tip to turn up your tip slightly, and a nasal tip deprojection to shorten the entire length of your nose. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and not just a computer animation system. You should be able to view numerous pictures of actual patients with noses similar to yours performed by your surgeon. If you cannot find enough real before and after pictures, then consider continuing your search for a surgeon.Best wishes and good luck.

Answer: Shortening the nose Hi thereYes your nose is correctable by shortening the nose. However you need a rhinoplasty and there is no shortcut to getting a good result. Every movement in rhinoplasty affects another part, so at the end the entire nose needs to be balanced and fit your face.It is true you may not need much dorsal work, but please base your decision on expertise and not "short or easy" procedures. Leave the surgeon to guide you as to the best way of achieving your realistic final result.I hope this helps.
