My dorsal hump aside, is there any method to reduce my nasolabial angle? perhaps trimming the hanging columella or shaving the nasal spine?. I've had a consultation and the surgeon said he didn't think he could help. I'm devastated. The protruding philtrum area is fleshy and can be pushed back when pressure applied with a finger etc.

Answer: Nasal angle The short answer is yes the angle can be changed in either direction but obviously with different techniques. I not uncommonly operate on patients who have had surgery done elsewhere and have had there noses turned up too much and would benefit from shortening. Find another PS or surgeons in your area who would feel comfortable doing the usrgery you desire and ask to see photos of similar patients

Answer: Rhinoplasty There are several ways to increase or reduce the nasolabial angle.This is relatively straightforward in experienced hands.You also have a small retruded chin that may benefit from being addressed at the same surgery.
