I have a flat wide nose with a large bulbous. I’m wondering if rhinoplasty is an option to help with this. I noticed some pictures that my nose has no projection and sometimes disappears. I notice my tip drops when smiling, I would like to get that fixed as well. I can breathe well now, and I would not want to compromise that, but wondering if a rhinoplasty would help with these issues.
Answer: Yes, you look like a good candidate for a rhinoplasty. More ... The width of the tip of your nose is controlled by the two tip cartilages. Those cartilages can be modified to narrow the tip. The tip cartilages also control how *long* the nose is. Their strength holds the tip of the nose down, and often it's nice to elevate the tip a bit while we're narrowing the tip.

Answer: Rhinoplasty to improve shape... Based on your photos, you are a great candidate for rhinoplasty. The tip can be reduced in size and better supported so it doesn't droop as much. This will make the nose smaller while keeping it looking natural. Be sure to see a rhinoplasty specialist for consultation.

Answer: Bulbous nose Hello and thank you for your question. From the photos you provided and your description of what you would like to achieve, I would say that yes a rhinoplasty can definitely help improve the projection and definition of your tip without compromising your breathing. The one factor that I cannot evaluate is the thickness of your skin. The thicker your skin, the more difficult it is to achieve a more defined tip. I would recommend in person evaluation by a facial plastic surgeon with extensive experience in rhinoplasty to help determine if your concerns can be fully addressed with rhinoplasty.

Answer: Rhinoplasty candidate You seem to be a good candidate for rhinoplasty; tip rotation, refinement, narrowing of the nose, should all be considered. In person consultation or initial telemedicine consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon, expert inrhinoplasty, is recommended. Good luck.
