My nose starts “too high” and I find myself raising my eyebrows in photos to see my eyes better. Most before and afters similar to mine seem to only feature “straightening”- I know my nose is crooked and would like to correct the dorsum but most “afters” featuring a Roman profile like mine don’t seem to alter the high radix at all, which bothers me bc that’s what makes my nose seem so prominent. Is what I want even possible? What are cost estimates? Doctors in SD area?

Answer: Lowering Nasal Radix If you want the radix lowered and it looks good when graphically simulated during the rhinoplasty planning phase, then that should be incorporated into your surgical plan.

Answer: I dislike my high radix nose and it overwhelms my face. The side profile photographs demonstrate an overly projecting nose with a dorsal hump that extends into the radix. There is also a recessive chin profile which makes the nose look larger than it is due to facial balance and proportions. Consider a closed Rhinoplasty procedure to shave down the dorsal hump up into the radix, to create a better and more pleasing nasal dorsal profile in addition to decreasing the overall projection of the nose, and a chin implant to increase the projection of the chin to help with facial balance and proportions from the side profile, especially with respect to the overly projecting nose.
