I hate how my nose drops when I smile and am wondering if there are other ways besides a rhinoplasty to fix this? Possibly something that is not so invasive. I’m not sure if I have thick skin as well and if a rhinoplasty would be worth it. I just want my nose but better.
Answer: Rhinoplasty vs. Botox/filler A rhinoplasty that is well performed would certainly give you a permanent improvement in the shape of the nose which would also be an improvement in the droopiness you get when smiling. If surgery is not desired, then some filler can be placed in the tip to give it the appearance of being lifted and a little botox placed in the depressor muscles under the nose. Be sure to see an expert rhinoplasty surgeon for consultation.

Answer: Rhinoplasty surgery may be considered for achieving a more pleasing nasal profile appearance. Based on your photo, your bridge appears to be a bit High, and I agree that your tip droops with smiling and it gives the appearance of a dorsal hump. If this is something that bothers you, rhinoplasty surgery may be considered for achieving a less distracting and more feminine nasal profile appearance. I do not believe that there is an adequate non-surgical procedure to address your concern. Thank you so much. Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Answer: Drooping nasal tip when laughing Hi. Depresor septi muscle can lower the nasal tip when you smile. And in this situtation we are performing a touch on this muscle. And if we continue to your nose, some nasal dorsal bump and some bulbous tip. Depresor septi muscle approach and rhinoplasty can be done in the same surgery. You can reach us for information and evaluation purposes. We wish you healthy days.

Answer: Nasal Tip This is a normal variation of what happens when some people smile due to a combination of several muscles in the face when animating. A rhinoplasty is the best way to address a "droopy tip", especially if it is exacerbated with smiling. You would do quite well with a rhinoplasty.
