Bossa on nose tip. What can be done to fix it? (Photo)

People with very thin nasal skin can show irregularities in the nasal tip after all swelling is resolved. Since a Bossa is related to thin skin, revision surgery may not always be the best option. In our experience, several droplets of Silikon-1000 may be helpful for camouflaging edges of cartilage and for providing a permanently less operated nasal appearance. I hope this helps!

In my personal experience, that is most likely a prominent piece of cartilage that was placed in the tip complex area. I would go back to see your original surgeon about your concerns.

You only posted this one angle of your nose, but it seems to me that the tip is very wide. That dot seems to be the left side of a huge tip graft, and perhaps the right side of the graft isn't as sharp, which is why there is not a dot on the right side. From this one photo, I think you need a revision, but not to just clip that dot -- I'd like to see the entire tip of the nose much more narrow.

I don't know what to tell you about going back to the same surgeon to have this done. If the tip of your nose is truly as wide as it seems, and your surgeon put it there and liked it, you probably might seriously consider switching surgeons.

Hello,The issue is due mainly to the shape of the tip cartilages. It is also possible that there is a graft called a shield graft in the tip. If so, it seems it might be too big and pronounced for your nose and skin type. Unfortunately microneedling will not help this issue. Although it can promote collagen formation. It does not thicken skin in this way, and certainly not enough to disguise the shape. If nonsurgical is the only option, filler can be used to soften this area, but at the expense of making the tip bigger. The ideal solution would be surgical with the main focus of changing cartilage shape. If it is also determined that the skin needs to be thickened, a temporalis fascia graft can be used. Make sure to consult with surgeons specializing in revision rhinoplasty, even for non-surgical correction. This area has many vessels and healing creates a tighter area, which if not respected during injection can create issues with necrosis. On some occasions it is even necessary to inject in small amounts over a few sessions. Good luck!
