Am I suitable for rhinoplasty? (Photo)

Hi from Istanbul! It appears that you have a septal deviation, particularly noticeable towards the lower left side of your nose. Rhinoplasty can address and rectify this issue. Additionally, the prominent tip projection seems out of proportion with the rest of your nose. By slightly reducing its length and addressing the hump, your nose would achieve a more balanced appearance in harmony with your face. Hope this helps, best of luck!

Based on your photos, you would be a great candidate for rhinoplasty. Yes, your nose is not bad, but many rhinoplasties are done to create small changes that makes the patient very happy. The overall size of the nose could be reduced a bit and the tip could be refined and made a bit smaller. The septum at the base of the nose could be made straighter at the same time. Be sure to see a rhinoplasty expert that can do computer imaging at the same time for consultation.

I can see that the tip of your nose is a big crooked on the base view of your nose, however, you otherwise appear to have a pleasing nasal appearance. In our experience, the best candidates for rhinoplasty surgery are those who have severe dissatisfaction with their nasal appearances for a long period of time. I hope this helps! Sincerely, Dr Joseph

A dorsal reduction, reduction in tip projection, and septoplasty/osteotomies should reduce projection and correct asymmetry. A rhinoplasty usually accomplishes all this so it would be recommended.

Hi, Rhinoplasty can enhance the nasal profile including shape,length and projection.It is better for you to consult with a facial plastic surgeon who can examine you and discuss the surgical procedure and the post op recovery
process.

Hello! Thank you for your question.As far as I can see from your photo you are suitable for rhinoplasty surgery. For get rid of this image I recommend you rhinoplasty surgery.It would be better face to face consultation.Best regards!

Asymmetries like yours are difficult to correct. A nose with asymmetries will always have some left over after a rhinoplasty -- the question is how much improvement is possible. Also, the base view is extremely difficult to correct; nobody sees that view anyway, so we care more about the non-base views.
Your profile view shows a nose that is somewhat strong in its forward projection away from your face and also long-ish. It's much more predictable to make changes altering the projection and length, so for example, we would consider elevating your tip some and bringing the tip and bridge and entire nose back a little closer to your face. Making those changes, also, opens up surgical opportunities to do more about correcting the asymmetries.

How *much* to elevate the tip, or deproject the nose, or make other changes? We figure that out with morphs, well before surgery. I'd love for you to see some excellent professionally-designed morphs of what could possibly be done with your nose. Morphs could also help you identify better just what's bothering you, and help you set a goal for the rhinoplasty that's accurate for your tastes. Profile and three-quarter views would be particularly important in morphing your nose. (Side note: in my opinion, morphs should really be done by the surgeon, or he should direct an assistant as she makes the morphs. Morphs should be made with a constant eye to what actually *can* be done in surgery, for that particular nose, and the surgeon has that information and judgment best.)

Finally, remember that rhinoplasty is an exquisitely difficult operation to get right, and you should only have surgery if you are able to make yourself very confident in your surgeon's skills. The changes that your nose needs require advanced techniques, and skill that most plastic surgeons don't possess with expertise. For most noses, it's much better to not have surgery than to have inexpertly-performed surgery. Read my essay on how to stay out of trouble while selecting a rhinoplasty surgeon. And it also discusses how to take photos that are best for online evaluations.

Your face is asymmetrical, your cheek bone on the left side appears larger than the right side and your nose is inclined to one side and you have a concavity to the right. You would benefit from a rhinoplasty and septoplasty.

Best Wishes,

Yes, you are a good candidate for rhinoplasty. Your bridge is great so all you need is making the tip smaller (tip-plasty) and reducing the flare of your nostrils (alarplasty). The deviation could be from nasal septum and you might need a septoplasty at the same time.
Tip-plasty and Alarplasty

You can have the lower half of the nose (tip and nostrils) addressed without breaking the nasal bones. Tip-plasty can address the bulbous tip either through closed or open approach to make it narrow and refined.
Alarplasty is a very fine and quick procedure that can narrow the nostrils and reduce the flare to soften the appearance. It has other names as well like ‘Weir Excisions’ or ‘Nostril Reduction’. However, it is important to note that asymmetry of nostrils is common and cannot be corrected with alarplasty.
Both of these can be done under local anethesia.

Thank you for your question and for providing photographs. In short, yes, all of the concerns you have are common areas that are addressed in a rhinoplasty. During your consultation you should be sure to voice the exact issues that bother you about your nose as well as what you like about your nose so that you and your surgeon can design a custom plan that fits your goals. Correct nasal deviation and asymmetry is critical in any rhinoplasty surgery.
