I have a very distinctive nose. It’s a hugeeeee insecurity of mine. To the point I wear a hat everyday so people don’t focus on it. It’s really affecting my day to day love. When I smile it looks huge. Is my type of nose a difficult rhinoplasty? I’m just worried it’s going to be crazy expensive because I’ll most likely need a piece of rib for the tip of my nose.
Answer: Rhinoplasty You do not need rib cartilage. A tip rhinoplasty would be sufficient to reshape the tip cartilages to correct the rounded lower lateral cartilages and their separation.

Answer: YES- I Recommend Rhinoplasty with Deprojection | Plastic Surgery | Expert | Surgical | Nose Job | Rib Graft | Septoplasty Hello and thank you for your question and the pictures. You actually have a difficult problem. To properly address your nose and improve your facial balance, you would need a rhinoplasty with nasal tip deprojection to improve the overall harmony of your different facial features. This truly a surgery of millimeters- and tip deprojection is one of the most technically challenging surgical techniques! So yes, it will be more complex, but you would have an amazing result you'd be excited to show off! Because your nose is the DEFINING feature of your face- I would only recommend seeing a surgeon who specializes in rhinoplasty procedures, and who has significant training and experience performing these surgeries. I actually trained under one of the world leading rhinoplasty experts (who performs 1,000+ nosejobs annually). I recommend for you to setup a formal consultation with me (or another plastic surgeon who is extremely comfortable with rhinoplasties) to thoroughly discuss your surgical goals, undergo a formal examination, evaluate your options, and develop a personalized plan just for you. I hope this helps! Dr. Donald Groves Aesthetic Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello! Thank you for your question. If you have had a previous operation, you may need to use extra cartilage from the ribs and ear. I recommend a rhinoplasty operation for a more feminine and elegant look. It would be better face to face consultation. Best Regards!

Answer: You're a candidate; all rhinoplasties entail complexity Yes, you are a candidate for a rhinoplasty. Although all rhinoplasties are complex and challenging because it is a difficult procedure, there is nothing about your nose in particular that would make performing a rhinoplasty any more difficult than another case. I would recommend getting a consultation with a rhinoplasty specialist (someone who is board-certified in facial plastic surgery) to evaluate.

Answer: Tip bulbosity Hi,Your nose tip seems large and has convex cartilage ,combined a thin skin .other parts of the nose are good .if you hadnt have any nose surgery before,your septum cartilage will be enough to make your Rhinoplasty. it is not common to use rib cartilage in primary rhinoplasties because most of them has enough septum cartilage inside.of course each rhinoplasty has its unique complexity in each individiual.your nose doesnt seem as complex as your mention. Best Regards, Emin Eren,MDAesthetic and Functional Nose Surgery
