I love everything about my nose, the only problem I have with it, is my nose bridge. I'm an Asian male, 22, aspiring model. My nose bridge is flat, not significantly. Is it possible to just only get my nose bridge raised? I am open to any ideas and suggestions, and would like to know my options before I proceed with this procedure. I've provided some pictures for help as well.

Answer: Your Nasal Dorsum Looks Pretty Good It is definitely possible to just raise the nasal dorsum, as long as doing this does not make the other subunits of your nose appear out of place or mismatched. I will say that I personally feel you have a relatively good nasal dorsum for an asian nose already. I typically place a dorsal implant in my asian nose patients. I then will perform nasal tip work using their natural cartilage. This provides good consistent dorsal augmentation and yet allows me to modify their tip without the use of any artificial material that could cause problems down the road. Computer generated imaging may help you make a decision, but as I stated before, your dorsum looks pretty good to me. Andrew C. Campbell, M.D. Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon
