What techniques are used to slightly decrease bridge height/width of the nasal bony pyramid? Could the surgeon be over agressive and make it too narrow?
I'd also like to increase my nasolabial angle a little, would it be simple enough to just shorten the caudal part of the septum and barely overlap the lower lateral cartilages? Thanks.

Answer: You're asking for commonly performed Rhinoplasty maneouvers And this is good. Reducing the bridge is often done during rhinoplasty. The two commonest techiques are chiseling and filing. And sure too much can be taken off. Plus the bridge can be made too narrow (although that's less common a problem).

Answer: You can have your bridge lowered and your tip rotated with Rhinoplasty Surgery. If the bridge of your nose is too high, and if the angle of your nose and upper-lip is too small, then it sounds like you're a good candidate for Rhinoplasty Surgery. In fact, these are some of the most common conditions I treat with Rhinoplasty Surgery.
