Is this polly beak deformity? (photos)

A polly beak is when the lower bridge of your nose projects further from your face and your nasal tip. And based on your photos, that may be the case. This may also be associated with somewhat of a droopy tip appearance. An examination would be necessary to determine the feasibility of revision rhinoplasty surgery, however, problems like this can be addressed with surgery successfully. Hope this helps! Dr Joseph

Hello! Thank you for your question.From the photos it looks like you have polly beak deformity. If you don't have any concern about the front view, I recommend you to go to your surgeon who performed your rhinoplasty to get a consultation.

Yes, you do have a poly beak deformity. The poly beak can be created from either thick skin or excess cartilage. Thick skin is treated with steroid shots, while residual cartilage is treated with a revision rhinoplasty. Revision rhinoplasty is more difficult than primary rhinoplasty, so choose your rhinoplasty specialist very wisely based on extensive experience
