Nasal tip reduction. Is there a non surgical way to slightly pinch the tip?

Question

I like the shape of my nose just the tip is slightly too large for my face. I want to know if there is a non-surgical way to to slightly pinch the tip of the nose or is there a way to lift the tip of the nose to make it look more narrow. I have looked into three point injection rhinoplasty but It always injects into the top portion of the nose and I just want the tip changed.

Hello,Thanks for your question. There is no good non-surgical method to achieve your goals. If your tip is too big to start with, adding filler will only make this worse. The tip structures don't offer enough restriction of filler movement to create a micro-augmentation from frontal view. There are options for in-office surgical procedures that can correct the issue once and for all if you elected to move in that direction. I recommend that you consult with a rhinoplasty specialist for more information.Good luck,Dr. Shah

If you would like a more definitive answer to your question, please consider re-asking this with photographs of your nose. In general, when somebody presents to our office with a bulbous nasal tip appearance, we recommend rhinoplasty surgery to create a narrower nasal tip appearance, not fillers. I hope this helps! Sincerely, Dr. Joseph

Hi and thanks for your question. It is possible to refine your tip a bit with a filler like Voluma as part of the Non Surgical Rhinoplasty procedure. Usually it is difficult to make the tip smaller non surgically, although I have had some success injecting steroids to shrink the tip a bit. Whatever 3 point injection rhinoplasty is, I can assure you that it is not the only way of doing this procedure. The key to success with this and any other cosmetic procedure is to customize the technique to the individual. It should never be a cookie cutter approach. If you are considering this procedure, though, make sure to consult with someone very experienced specifically in Non Surgical Rhinoplasty and ask to see their before and after photos. Hope that helps

Thanks for asking an interesting question. This question is asked by many patients. Overall, yes it is difficult to get nasal tip reduction with any fillers. However, filler can be injected in the tip based on the anatomy of particular patient to give an impression of refined tip. I would say definition of tip will improve from front and side view, however, it won't reduce. I hope this helps.
