Answer: Rhinoplasty, Toronto Plastic Surgeon , Dr. Adibfar HelloYou have attractive eyes as well as other pleasing facial features and therefore a formal rhinoplasty would help make your nose more harmonious with the rest of your face.The nose is comprised of many interlinked parts. The re shaping of one part may lead to the need of re shaping of other parts in order to achieve the desired long term harmony. Hence I recommend a comprehensive rhinoplasty in order to give you the beautiful result that you desire.The term tip plasty is commonly mis used and misleading.Thank you

Answer: Rhinoplasty I think a subtle refinement of your tip could be performed to achieve you goals. I would caution you that a "tip rhinoplasty" is still a rhinoplasty. It's not necessarily less invasive at all. In fact, compared to a minor hump reduction, I would consider it more invasive. I really think the term "tip-plasty" should not be used. It's all rhinoplasty and should not really be considered some different kind of surgery. I see people using that term on Realself all the time and I think it's misleading.That said, you should definitely find a surgeon who has lots of experience and has a keen eye for "finesse" rhinoplasty. You need subtle, natural changes. Remember that, especially in your case, your nose could easily look worse after surgery if done incorrectly.

Answer: Rhinoplasty candidate for wide bridge and tip The decision to perform a rhinoplasty is a personal one, and only you can make that decision. Computer imaging of your new nose might be helpful in the education process. In the far majority of cases, a full rhinoplasty is required, not a tip plasty. To narrow the wide bulbous tip, suture techniques are applied to the lower lateral cartilages. Sometimes a conservative cartilage removal is also performed when the tip cartilages are excessively wide. Osteotomies of the nasal bones are required to narrow the wide bridge line. For many examples of narrowing a wide nose, please see the link below

Answer: It depends .. It is difficult to tell for sure from the photos you've provided and it depends ofcoarse on what bothers you about your nose. It would be helpful to see a profile view and a photo from below. Overall you may benefit from some narrowing and perhaps shortening of the nose to make it less prominent on your face. This will bring more focus on your eyes. A formal rhinoplasty would be the best way to achieve this. It's important to get a consultation with a surgeon who focuses on rhinoplasty.
