Hello, I had gone to a consultation for rhinoplasty and the surgeon examined me and then said he doesn’t think I need rhinoplasty. Do surgeons typically advise patients on whether or not they need a cosmetic procedure? Thank you!

Answer: It depends how much you dislike your nose. In general, we do not advocate rhinoplasty surgery for somebody who has mild dissatisfaction with the appearance of their nose. Based on your photos, you appear to have a crooked nasal appearance on front view and a droopy nasal tip appearance on profile. If these issues are causing severe dissatisfaction, depending on your examination, rhinoplasty surgery may be considered for achieving a straighter and narrow nasal appearance along with additional tip projection, rotation, and dorsal lowering. I hope this is helpful! Sincerely, Dr Joseph
