Reverse rhinoplasty, could I get similar results to my old nose? (Photos)

Nice464750Nov 24, 2023
Hello, I’ve undergo rhinoplasty 6 months ago and completely regret my decision. I honestly feel much prettier with my old nose. I always loved my nose I was just convinced by fillers that I’d be much more beautiful if it was smaller. I couldn’t be more incorrect. I haven’t stopped crying since the procedure. My main concern is wanting to know if I could get similar results to my old nose. My surgeon didn’t changed the shape but reduced the size and added rib cartilage to bridge and tip. Please

The reason for the different appearance of your nostrils is that the caudal septum is crooked and the support of the nose wings is not equal on the right and left sides. It can be easily corrected with surgical treatment.

It depends on what is the cause of the bump. If it is a form of cartilage, it is possible that over-reducing it may lead to the tip coming down, but I doubt that would be the case, esp if it is done conservatively. You can see that your tip is definitely below what the bump is so you should be...
