I would like to have rhinoplasty, what is the best way for me to go? (Photo)

The photograph shows a bulbous tip, lack of definition of the tip, a low bridge and wide nostrils.  These are all the elements typically seen an African-American nose.  All of these can be addressed in a rhinoplasty.RegardsDr. J

The most effective way to choose a surgeon is to visit their website and decide if the results that are available are the results that you would like to see for yourself.  You definitely need to meet with an experienced board certified surgeon experienced in rhinoplasty.  Ask them as many questions as you feel it is necessary to become comfortable.  Make certain you discuss outcomes you would like to see and realistic expectations.  You can also ask them about your puffy eyes!

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your
photograph, 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. The most important
aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek
consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate
you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.

Best way to proceed would be to learn as much as you can by reading good sites (I've included one for you), then visit a board certified plastic surgeon nearby to explore your options.  Be sure to discuss with your board certified plastic surgeon exactly what your goals are, and how reliably they can be expected to be achieved.

Dear kimberly1974,Thank you for submitting your photo, but additional views would be really helpful. A profile view and one showing the very top of your nose, and one showing the base, would be important. You can have a larger nose and a higher bridge.  In addition, the nostrils can be narrowed and shaped.  I would be happy to help you!Best,Dr. Michelle Yagoda

Look for a very experienced rhinoplasty specialist for best results, since rhinoplasty is a very difficult endeavor. The bridge of the nose can be narrowed with osteotomies, the tip refined with suture techniques and a conservative cartilage removal, and the nostrils narrowed with an alar-plasty.

You would have to be seen in person to determine what your goals are and what can be offered to you. Good luck.

In order to explore what can be done for your nose, it is best to consult with an plastic surgeon who is experience with rhinoplasty.  There are many options in rhinoplasty and communicating what you would like done so that it can be matched up with what can be done is very important.

You are a candidate for a rhinoplasty based on your picture. Specific goals and realistic expectations are best discussed in person with a board certified plastic surgeon who is experienced in rhinoplasty for all ethnicities. 

A good place to start is with an experienced board certified plastic surgeon for an in person evaluation to discuss your goals and expectations.  Yes, you are an excellent candidate for Rhinoplasty surgery.
