I really like the look of some noses where there seems to be a chiseled tip - slight dimples on the sides, under the tip, almost with "hard" edges rather than the soft edges and tips that you end up seeing in so many nose jobs. Is there a way to recreate this look? And is there a name for this type of nose?
Answer: Rhinoplasty to Create a More Chiseled Tip Patients with thinner skin tend to see a better result when pursuing a more chiseled nasal tip. I should also caution you that this procedure can easily be overdone to the point of looking unnatural. Make sure the surgeon you choose is both board certified and highly experienced in this technique to ensure an optimal outcome.

Answer: Rhinoplasty I think your nasal tip would get a nice result from surgical refinement especially because your skin is nice and thin. I can’t tell about what might need to be done to the rest of the nose fir the optimal result.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your description, you may benefit from a tip refining rhinoplasty. Your surgeon can accomplish this by trimming, suturing, and reshaping the cartilage in your lower nose. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and not just a computer animation system. You should be able to view numerous pictures of actual patients with noses similar to yours performed by your surgeon. If you cannot find enough real before and after pictures, then consider continuing your search for a surgeon. Best wishes and good luck.

Answer: Chiseled nose Noses can to some degree be "chiseled" by adding carved grafts to the nose. It is important not to overdo this or the nose can have an unnatural done look.

Answer: Chiseled tip rhinoplasty The "chiseled" look is a function of the thickness of the skin and soft tissue overlying the cartilage. Patients with thinner skin will always look more "chiseled" compared to patients with thicker skin. There are ways to make the skin a little bit thinner by using retinoic acid topical treatments and reducing soft tissue thickness surgically, but there is a limit to what can be accomplished. An in-person exam would be necessary to determine if your desired look is possible for your nose.
