Is there a way to tell if I have thick skin on my nose or if it is cartilage?
Answer: Thick Nose Skin or Excess Cartilage Assuming you have not had nasal surgery in the past, your nose possibly has a combination of both.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Evaluation Optimal results for rhinoplasty surgery are dependent upon an accurate assessment of the patients anatomic deformity. This requires a physical examination by a surgeon with experience in this area. In most cases a relatively accurate assessment of the nasal anatomy can be made prior to surgery when patients have prominent nasal structures.

Answer: We can usually tell on your exam During your consultation, we can usually tell by examining you what your actually anatomy is-- this is relatively straightforward. Different skin types also tend to have different levels of thickness and quality, but whether or not you have significant cartilages can also be determined at the time of your exam.

Answer: See a rhinoplasty specialist. He can tell by examining your nose if you have thick skin and or cartilage responsible to a large tip. Look at good before/after photos of his work since that is the type of nose he does.
