I have been very unhappy with my nose for several years now and have wanted rhinoplasty for about a year and a half. I don't want just a thinner nose, I want it to be completely different. Thinner and instead of being flat I would like it to have a point to it. With that being said, because my nose is so wide and big, is it going to be harder and more dangerous for me to get rhinoplasty? Will the recovery process take longer?

Answer: Rhinoplasty options You should be able to get dramatic results but be careful you don't go too far the opposite way. In other words, I wouldn't recommend turning yout tip into a "point". Changing your tip into one that is more narrow, with better definition and projection will create an obvious difference without looking strange. Take celebrity photos with you at your consultations to better help you explain to your surgeon what you are looking for. Good luck.
