For the concerns you mention, you would be an excellent candidate for rhinoplasty. The widened and round tip can be easily treated. As we get older this nasal tip rotates inferiorly. The best example to to compare a baby's nasal tip (highly rotated) and grandma's nasal tip (de-rotated). Be healthy and be well, James M. Ridgway, MD, FACS
Hello, Aging causes your nasal tip to become bulbous and a rhinoplasty addressing the tip's cartilage and narrowing it. I encourage you to consult with board certified surgeons of ample experience in that field who will help you make a well informed decision; commendable results require exceptionally skilled surgeons. I hope this helps. The best of luck to you. Dr. Sajjadian
Yes your tip is wide and I often do minor nose surgery on my patients who are having facelifts, etc. See an experienced surgeon for a consultation.
Thank you for your question. Your concerns are very common for patients interested in rhinoplasty surgery. A bulbous tip can be improved quite reliably using basic tip refining techniques. Your concerns of a "growing" nose is a common change that occurs to all of us as we age. As the nose ages, some predictable changes occur such as the nasal tip becomes less projected (closer to the face) and more under rotated (droopy tip). These changes can all be addressed but rhinoplasty surgery to rejuvenate the nose.
This is not an uncommon situation. You could have nice conservative refinement to keep your nose in context with the rest of your face. You can have significant improvement in the width and bulbousity.
Your nose does indeed grow, as do ears, as we age and it is not unexpected that your nose appears fuller and broader. Of course, rhinoplasty is able to reduce the width and support the tip without difficulty.
From the photos you submitted, it appears that you also have a widened nasal base, especially evident when smiling. This problem and the bulbous tip can be addressed with conventional rhinoplasty surgery successfully by a skilled and experienced surgeon. The nose changes with age and you are manifesting typical changes experienced in midlife. It's not too late to address these conditions now! Good luck!
It is not uncommon to hear this complaint in patients as the aging process occurs. The nasal tip does drop during the aging process and become more bulbous. Many of my facelift patients will have Rhinoplasty as well where they had not considered it in their earlier years. A consultation with a good Rhinoplasty surgeon will be in order to properly diagnose you and procure a good surgical plan. I would use a digital imaging computer which allows me to show my consulting patients the proposed surgical results prior to their procedure. This allows you to see the aesthetic changes that would be suggested and make sure you and your surgeon are on the same page. In reviewing your photographs you would be an excellent candidate for Rhinoplasty. You have a beautiful smile and nice facial aesthetics. A rhinoplasty will help with your concerns and complaints. Thank you Ms. ILOVE ITALY I as well love the country! You will enjoy your future travel pictures even more with some nice refinements to your nose! Best regards and happy travels!
Just like the rest of our bodies the nose will change as we age, especially the nasal tip skin. I see many "mature" people who want to improve their nasal tip. An experienced surgeon will examine your nose and explain alternative treatments.
Aesthetically speaking, the nasal tip is a bit wide and the tip appears to be under-rotated which can make people think their noses are still growing. A Rhinoplasty would be able to address these issues.
The question that you ask is a very good one. It is not uncommon for patients to have one side of the face appear different than the other - I would submit that it is entirely normal. Surgery is often a means to create harmony and balance between the two sides of our face. Often patients with...
When osteotomies (fracturing of the nasal bones) are performed, or when the structure of the nose is altered, it is necessary to place a hard cast on the nose for the first week following surgery. This ensures your nose heals properly in its new shape. After the cast is removed, you will have...
The lump could be a number of things, it could be normal swelling, it could be an inflamed suture, it could be a lymph node, it could be the chin implant. I would follow through with your plans to visit with your surgeon to have it evaluated. More often than not these concerns are usually...
