I'm looking into getting a rhinoplasty & my main concern is how long my nose is. I don't have a bump and my tip is already naturally quite upturned. It's the bridge of my nose that is so long and It really is what bothers me. Is there anyway that the nose can be shortened vertically without rotating the tip? I have yet to see any before and afters that show patients who are similar to my nose and them successfully being able to reduce the length without touching the tip. Ty!!
