I'm thinking of doing it but I'm not sure of the cost. I want my nose completely changed. I just wish it wasn't so fat/swollen looking. I also want my side profile to look different. Do you think I need a lip lift as well?
Answer: Closed and Atraumatic Technique in Rhinoplasty Hello,Thank you for your question. Based on your photos you may benefit from the refinement of your tip and dorsal augmentation which can be performed by my own technique using bone dust obtained during surgery and the septal cartilage. The Dorsal Roof Technique protects the dorsal anatomy but fixes the deformity and moreover, supports your dorsum by using the excessive tissue instead of excision. As you have a wide nose, to catch the harmony between the dorsum and the tip a wing surgery might be needed, which is the removal of the excessive parts of the alas. Breathing issues can be corrected as well.The ST Flap Technique eliminates the tip bulbosity with not only protect the anatomy but also support it.A beautiful and natural looking nose, that suits your face can be achieved by the help of the Closed and Atraumatic Rhinoplasty, which minimizes swelling and bruises, maximizes healing, prevents tissue damage and eliminates a scar on the columella.

Answer: What to expect These are questions we get all of the time. Based off of your photographs, I think your expectations and desires are reasonable.Your recovery often depends on whether your surgeon ultimately uses an endonasal (closed/incision-less) approach versus an open/external approach, as the later can have more significant and longer lasting swelling. There are many advantages to the endonasal approach so be sure to find a Facial Plastic Surgeon that has a lot of experience with this approach. Best of luck!

Answer: Rhinoplasty 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. This can be designed to help the symmetry of your nose. I don't recommend a lip lift for you at this time. 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. Richard G. Reish, M.D. FACS Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Rhinoplasty I would advise a face to face consult with a plastic surgeon. Your nose is small and may potentially benefit from a bridge augmentation, and your tip may benefit from a tip-plasty - the extent of the surgery will vary with your desires and guided by a plastic surgeon skilled in rhinoplasty. Good luck
