How much can nasal skin stretch?

HelloThe nasal skin can be stretched to a certain extent with the use of cartilage grafts or implants however this is highly variable between individuals depending on the thickness and elasticity of the overlying skin and the necessary change.More specific recommendation can be made following a thorough examination.Thank you

The ability to lengthen can be limited by skin envelope. How much of an issue will be dependent upon skin thickness, skin elasticity, current length, amount of change needed, etc.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

Virtually all noses can be lengthened to some degree. Often this involves cartilage grafting to extend the septum or bring down the tip. Other cases may simply involve releasing attachments within the nose. Consult with an experienced facial plastic surgeon who can demonstrate before and after photos of cases similar to yours. Good Luck!
