Nasal tip grafting can be removed? (Photos)

April 29, 2024
Asked By:Polite392852 in Montréal, Québec, Canada

In my primary rhinoplasty the doctor inserted a graft in my tip without mentioning it me before surgery or that my tip will be hard forever. I didn’t even want a lifted tip. Now my nose is short, the tip is long and rock hard. Is it possible to remove those grafts and restore the tip again to what it was like?

Lexie Wang, MD says:

Hi! First of all, remember that you are only 6mo from your surgery; you are still healing. There is definitely a possibility that what you feel as too much projection will come down bc the tip is the last place to lose all of that. That being said, I think your nose looks fine, and for that...

Eric M. Joseph, MD says:

Your photos are not the best quality, however, we can see that you have an indentation involving your nasal tip. Depending on your examination, microdroplet Silikon 1000 injections may be considered for permanently failing this area for a less operated nasal appearance. I'm not sure of the...
