Raised vertical line down nose tip. Can anything be done to fix it? (Photo)

dchri5Mar 8, 2023

All google results bring back a bifid tip, which is the opposite of what I have. It's not a depression, but more of a ridge. I've gotten no answers. Are there any professionals that have seen this before or have a clue? I would also like to know the abuse of my left nostril resembling that of a camel and what can be done to fix it.

Hello @artgirls123, thank you for your question. It’s not uncommon for rhinoplasty results to differ between twins, even if they went to the same doctor and had surgery on the same day. All noses are slightly different and no amount of cosmetic surgery will result in two noses completely i...

Hi @zannasiry. Thank you for sharing your photos. I would recommend waiting a full year before judging the outcome of your nose. Swelling can take up to two years to fully subside. Best of luck, Dr. Nima

The muscle may not have been cut at all. During a rhinoplasty we use grafts in order to support the tip from collapsing after surgery. In some cases, supporting the tip on these grafts is enough to counteract the action of the depressor septi muscle. Removing the support of the tip on the grafts...
