Can my Upturned Nose Be Fixed? (photo)

Dear k0617,


Yes, rhinoplasty can be used to fix a short nose and it requires cartilage grafting

This is not the easiest problem to correct, so make sure you see a rhinoplasty specialist

At the same time, the tip can be refined as well


Best regards,

             The tip can be narrowed, and the nose can be effectively lengthened.  This can done with a variety of maneuvers in closed fashion.   Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of rhinoplasties and rhinoplasty revisions each year.  Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results.  Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA
