Am I a good rhinoplasty candidate? (Photo)

Question

I would like a more refined tip and for my nose to have less projection from my face. Am I a good candidate?

Eric M. Joseph, MD · Answer

I say this because in my opinion, you do not appear to have a significantly over-projected nasal profile appearance. Since digital photos rarely tell the whole story, sometimes an in-person consultation is necessary to determine somebody's candidacy for finesse rhinoplasty. I hope this helps. Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Hi from Istanbul! Based on your description, achieving a more refined tip and reducing the projection of your nose is possible. This can be accomplished by carefully excising excess cartilage to reduce the bulbosity of the nasal tip, combined with tip plasty, which will also help in enhancing the shape of your nostrils. Best of luck on your journey.

Hello! Thank you for your question.
As far as I can see from your photo you seem suitable for rhinoplasty. 
It would be more convenient to decide with face-to-face consultation. Best regards!

Hi , rhinoplasty can enhance nasal profile It is better for you to consult with a facial plastic surgeon who can examine you and discuss the surgical procedure and the post op recovery 
process.

Based on the photos you submitted, you have a bulbous nasal tip and would be a good candidate for a rhinoplasty.  many  surgeons offer 3-D imaging to show you how your rhinoplasty would look which I believe is helpful to achieve goal results

Tanveer Janjua, MD · Answer

You have a great side profile and should not be altered. However, from the frontal view you have a bulbous tip. A tip-plasty alone will get you the refinement that you desire. 
You can have the lower half of the nose (tip and nostrils) addressed without breaking the nasal bones. Tip-plasty can address the bulbous tip either through closed or open approach to make it narrow and refined.

I think overall, your nose is very nice. Reducing the size of the tip of your nose and creating slightly more definition would look elegant and feminine.
Look for board-certified plastic surgeons in your community who have extensive rhinoplasty experience. I recommend recommend having multiple in person consultations before choosing a provider.
Best,

Thank you for uploading these photos. Your nose is already pretty straight which is a great starting point. Depending on your goals, I recommend tip refinement with cephalic trim to make the tip cuter, along with nasal tip deprojection
