Nose Pushes Down when I Smile. Is This Hard to Fix?

August 25, 2010
Asked By:Briella in marin county/ san francisco

Thank you for answering my question..I need to ask if it hard correct the type of nose that pushes down when you smile..It is half corrected from the first nose job..I am more concerned about this than the tip...My photos dont even look like me and the point looks worse when it gets pushed down low in a smile.. Is this a tricky type of surgery..If it is I rather not even do it.
