Is there a way to make my nose skin more thin? (Photo)

Hello,Although thick skin is harder to work with while performing a rhinoplasty, it is very doable. I suggest consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon who performs scarless rhinoplasty as 100% of his/her surgical practice and does hundreds of these procedures a year so they know how to work with different skin types. Best of luck!Deepak Dugar, MDScarless Rhinoplasty ExpertBeverly Hills, CA 90210

Hello,
Thick skin on nose , especially in tip region compromises results of rhinoplasty. If same rhinoplasty is done on people, ones with thicker skin will have much less definition and will take longer time to see the result than those with avearge skin. Cutting excess skin is not possible in nose. Thinning to some extent is done by removing fatty tissue from under the skin, but that alone can not thin the skin enough. Despite the limitations, in most cases rhioplasty can be done to improve the nose overall , if you are willing to accept  modest results .

Hello and thank you for your question. Although you cannot make the nasal skin thinner, it is possible to debulk soft tissues of the nose and perform a tip refining rhinoplasty by trimming, suturing, and reshaping the cartilage in your lower nose.  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. The most important
aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek
consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate
you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.
