My nose is a bit wide , I want to remove the excess skin on the tip of my nose and make my nostrils a bit smaller . I would like to look as natural as possible and have read about rhinoplasty for ethnic groups .
Answer: Rhinoplasty to remove the excess skin on the tip of my nose The areas that concern you can be realistically improved with an artistically performed natural appearing rhinoplasty. Keep in mind that following advice from a surgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you what to do based on two dimensional photos without examining you, physically feeling your tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical history and discussing the pros and cons of the operative procedure would not be in your best interest. Natural appearing results need to be individualized and what is appropriate for one patient is not necessarily the best for someone else. I would suggest that you find a surgeon with extensive ethnic rhinoplasty experience certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and one who is ideally a member of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) or a facial plastic surgeon (otolaryngologist) that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person. Robert Singer, M.D., FACS La Jolla, California

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photograph, you may benefit from a tip narrowing and refining rhinoplasty. Your surgeon can accomplish this by trimming, suturing, and reshaping the cartilage in your lower nose. Cartilage grafts may also be used to help improve tip refinement. You may also benefit from decreasing to width of the alar base. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. With good surgical technique, you could have an outstanding result. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.Best wishes and good luck.Richard G. Reish, M.D.Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: I disagree Your nasal tip does not have excess of skin, to the contrary, it has a shortage if skin and your nose is short, the tip is short and both need increase and redefinition with grafts, as most afroamerican noses.Seek and follow honest and expert opinions of rhinoplasty surgeons and don't try to provide your own technical solutions.
