If someones nose tip is low and close to upper lip can it be fixed?
Answer: Correction of a droopy tip The droopy tip is a common nasal problem for which I perform rhinoplasty. Not all noses are the same, and the exact cause for the droopy tip would determine if you are a candidate for this procedure. I would encourage you to visit with a facial plastic surgeon to have an evaluation and determine the best approach for addressing your personal concerns. Best Regards

Answer: Yes. By raising the tip, so the nose is shorter. When the tip is close to the upper lip, we say that the nose is "long." Shortening a long nose is a frequent change to make during a rhinoplasty. A significant shortening of the nose, however, requires advanced techniques, techniques that most plastic surgeons cannot handle. Be sure to read the section in the "Web reference" link on how to stay out of trouble while searching for a rhinoplasty surgeon.
