My nose is too short and it looks really stupid, especially from a front view. So the length is pretty much the only thing about my nose that bothers me. And the doctor said that he would lower the bridge and by doing so, this would allow the tip to drop down about 2 to 3 millimeters and this should be enough and he could do it during a closed rhinoplasty and it's very easy to do? Good approach or not? Any way of lengthening without lowering the bridge? I do not want a feminine appearance.
Answer: How To Lengthen The Nose Lengthening the nose usually requires grafting techniques to add structure to the nasal tip. These grafts are often taken from the nasal septum, however, for patients without adequate septal cartilage off-the-shelf grafts can be used. Dropping the dorsum will have little effect on increasing the length. These are big maneuvers that are often intended to create millimeter changes to the shape of the nose once it heals. The goal is a natural looking nose that creates better balance to your face.

Answer: Lengthening the nose, counter rotation of the tip, Lowering the bridge It is very difficult to be specific about the knees of your nose because it is not visualized in the context of your entire face in the pictures you provided. I would however agree that for a male nose the nasal dorsum does not need to be modified or lower. There are multiple techniques utilized to counter rotate the nasal tip most of which require cartilage grafting from the nasal septum. This cartilage may be used as a caudal septal extension graft, extended spreader grafts, a tip graft and possibly alar strut grafts. All these grafts with the exception of a tip graft provide structural support to the tip of the nose that allow it to be repositioned inferiorly, in doing so the nasal tip will become more stiff and this will persist. I would not reduce the projection of your nose meaning leaving the distance that it projected from your face unchanged just positioning the nasal tip more inferiorly.
