More information about me: I am middle eastern with thick skin. I know it can be difficult to judge based on a photo but I am thinking about getting a rhinoplasty and it would be helpful to have some key ideas on what to modify in order to achieve a smaller more attractive nose.
Answer: Rhinoplasty Great question! Without full face photos, it can be hard to give good recommendations as its also important to have your nose harmonize well with the face. With that said, it seems like you have a bump on the bridge that can be removed. The bridge also looks a bit wide which can be narrowed in with osteotomies or breaking of the bones. Finally the tip looks a bit full, which can be refined and shruken down. Other than that you would need an examination to make sure nothing else needs to be done, such as breathing issues.Best of luck and hope this information helps! - Dr. Roger Tsai Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Closed and Atraumatic Technique in Rhinoplasty Hello, Thank you for your question. Thick skinned patients can also have a rhinoplasty but the process needs more control and may require extra treatment before and after the surgery. The aim is to make the skin thinner. Thanks to these treatments positive and satisfying results can be achieved after a rhinoplasty by the right surgeon. An in person examination is essential. Based on your photos your dorsal hump can be removed, the bridge narrowed, the tip can be refined and the projection can be shortened. An attractive 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 modifications would you make to make my nose more attractive and appealing? In person exam is essential. Based on limited photos- you appear to be a candidate for Rhinoplasty - preferably - through a closed technique- without a scar across columella. I suggest that you seek an experienced Board Certified PS with a wide gallery of before and after photos

Answer: What modifications would you make to make my nose more attractive and appealing? Every nose is different and unique to that individual. If the appearance of your nose concerns you enough to do something about it, it can be improved with a natural artistically performed rhinoplasty. What would be the best option and exact procedure would depend on an in person examination (not just an online consultation) and discussion about desired outcome. Excellent results can be achieved with either a closed or open technique. Keep in mind that following advice from a surgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you exactly what to do and how technically to do it based on limited photos without examining you, physically feeling your tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical history and discussing the pros and cons of the operative procedure would not be in your best interest. Natural appearing results need to be individualized and what is appropriate for one patient is not necessarily the best for someone else. I would suggest that you find a surgeon with extensive rhinoplasty experience certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and one who is ideally a member of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person. Robert Singer, M.D., FACS La Jolla, California
