Hi. Would I be a good candidate for tip plasty. I may have an issue going under and prefer local sedation. I also realize I am over exaggerating in some pictures but this is very much what my nose looks like. As you can see the tip droops down and just want to correct tip without it interfering with my breathing. I have some issues with shortness of breath but nothing related to my lungs.

Answer: Tip Rhinoplasty Yes you are an excellent candidate for a rhinoplasty in general. You truly need an evaluation in person to ensure that you have been told everything about surgery in advance given your shortness of breath.

Answer: Tip Procedure Hi there! Thanks for your questions. You can certainly undergo a tip-plasty procedure. The problem is doing it effectively under local anesthetic only. Making sure you're comfortable is very important so that the task can be accomplished. I find using structure in the form of cartilage to work best for keep the nose from drooping with smiling. Anesthesia is very safe but certainly you would need clearance before deciding on it. Seek consultation with a number of physicians to see who you feel most comfortable with. Hope this helps!
