Lewislucy,While this may come off as strange to you, noses continue to grow throughout a person's lifetime. Therefore, your nose has most likely formed more cartilage and the bone may have also grown. If you are very unhappy with it, you should consult your doctor in order to see what form of action you can take to improve the situation. Best of luck,Dr. Ali Sajjadian
Noses grow with the pass of years, specially in patients with sebaceous skin. Additionaly aging produces tip ptosis or droopy tip, likely to be treated with a tip graft.Regards
Noses keep growing. It affects all of us. After surgery to the nose the body may add more tissue to the area as part of the normal healing response. In the same way that a bone fracture heals in other parts of the body, the bones of the nose also get stronger over time. The cartilage also heals with scar tissue inside the nose. All this can make the nose bigger over time. The good news is that the body can also re-model, which means it may dissolve away any swelling with time.
In addition to normal nasal growth you should be aware that there are medical conditions such as rhinophyma that cause an enlarging of the nose. It is best to see your plastic surgeon to determine the correct diagnosis and best treatment plan.

Hello, and thank you for the question. It is best to refrain from wearing glasses or goggles for the first 6 weeks after your surgery. I would recommend checking with your surgeon regarding his or her specific guidelines. I hope this information helps, and I wish you the best of luck.
Yes, the profile result that you have shown is quite attainable. It involves reducing a modest hump, elevating the tip of your nose slightly, and then performing osteotomies to maintain the ideal width of your nose. I assume that you are happy with the front view of your nose since you...
