Are these realistic expectations if I were to have a rhinoplasty procedure? (Photos)

Hello, and thank you for providing images along with your question. Yes, a nasal hump and nasal tip projection are common issues addressed with rhinoplasty. Now that you are set with your goals, your next step is to find a skilled and experienced surgeon. Rhinoplasty is a very complex procedure, no matter how “minor” your nasal concerns are. I recommend scheduling a consultation with a reputable board-certified facial plastic surgeon, particularly one with a strong rhinoplasty portfolio. Such experts will have the skill and training to perform the most advanced surgical techniques, as well as an aesthetic eye for facial harmony and balance, helping you achieve the most natural-looking results. During your consultation, your surgeon can assess your facial profile, recommend the best approach, use digital photography to show projected results, and ensure the best possible outcome.

Is your simulation realistic? you appear to have a slightly bulbous tip and a very tiny dorsal hump. What exactly your tip would look like after rhinoplasty depends on the thickness of the skin which cannot be evaluated in a photograph. However based on your other features it appears that the front simulation would be realistic. In your side profile The simulation merely removed the slight dorsal hump. removing a dorsal hump with no other change can make the side profile look too long. I actually think your current profile with the tiny hump is prettier than the simulation where you remove the hump but did not shorten the nose. Try shortening the nose by a millimeter or so in your side profile simulation and see if you like that more or less than this simulation. In general when a dorsal hump is removed the nose will look slightly longer, unless it is already a short nose, requiring slight shortening of the nose to synchronize with the other features.

Hello, Yes removing the nasal thumb and improving the tip can be made with rhinoplasty. It is better for you to consult with a facial plastic surgeon and discuss how your nose shape could look like after surgery.
