What can I realistically expect my nose to become with rhinoplasty? I would love for it to be sculpted into something much more attractive. Realistically, I would like my nose to look a little longer with a more narrow nasal bridge as well as showing a bit more nostril. However, I don't see cases on realself that have my type of nose (bulbous, large nasal bridge) and if there are, I can't find it. I'm tired of flaring my nostrils in pictures to give it shape to make it look more pleasing. Help!

Answer: Asian Rhinoplasty. There is hope for improving the appearance of your nose! I think you would benefit from augmentation rhinoplasty with alar base narrowing. Building the dorsum of your nose will help to define the shape of it more and narrowing your alar base will help to get ride of the flaring nostrils. Osteotomies of the nasal bones can help to narrow the width of he upper part of your nose. If you'd like, you are welcome to come in for a consultation and we can use imaging software to project a realistic goal for your rhinoplasty.

Answer: Asian Rhinoplasty Technique Thank you for the question and your photo. Yes, your nose could be improved with nose surgery. In cases similar to yours, I use a combination of techniques to add height to the bridge, narrow the tip, and create more tip definition. This often means cartilage grafts from the septum and/or ear. In addition, I use a fascia graft from the temporalis area (behind the hairline). Please visit with a couple board-certified rhinoplasty specialists before making a decision. Best of luck!
