Is There an Easy Revision of Droopy Nose After a Primary Rhinoplasty? Is It Just the Columella? (photo)

April 19, 2013
Asked By:casablanca in Jackson Township, New Jersey

I had a rhinoplasty 18 months ago and I am happy with the results but I'm still concerned about the droopy tip which even though improved is still droopy. The tip is hanging a bit even in repose but definitely more when I smile. I don't want to have the muscle cut or altered -- is it complicated to fix it without affecting the muscle underneath? I really don't want to go through a major surgery but if there is an easy fix, I would go for it. Please help me with your professional opinion!
