Hi Doctors, I’ve been considering rhinoplasty for over 20 years and am now seriously looking into it. However, as a single parent, I’m particularly concerned about the risk of major complications, including death. Are there any statistics available on the probability of such complications? How does the risk of major complications with rhinoplasty compare to other plastic surgeries? Thanks!!

Hello! Thank you for your question.
As far as I can understand from your question If you can send us your photos from the front and side profile at 95 degree angles in better light, we can make a more accurate evaluation.
It would be better face to face consultation.
Best Regards!
Hi, It is better for you to consult with your facial plastic surgeon who can examine you and give you opinion based on examination. It looks like a realistic expectation.
Rhinoplasty may indeed be considered for achieving and narrowing in the upper middle and lower thirds of your nose. Care would need to be taken not to rotate your tip at all, and this is indeed possible, depending on your examination. Wishing you well moving forward. Sincerely, Dr Joseph
