Answer: Rhinoplasty Options Hi there, Sarah! There are definitely options. The photos are helpful to show what you're talking about. You can counterrotate your nasal tip and refine it. In addition, if the nostrils are too wide, you can do an alar base reduction. I feel like all aspects of rhinoplasty can be complicated, but it depends on experience and willingness to treat certain noses. Using an open, structure approach for your nose will give the best chance of profound and stable change. This is opposed to a closed approach which I feel is much more difficult to get precise and lasting change. Seek consultation with a facial plastic surgeon competent in nasal surgery. Hope this helps!

Answer: Rhinoplasty to address bulbous tip and wide alar base Hello, thank you for posting your question. You may be a great candidate for a rhinoplasty because the procedure is personalized and can address multiple concerns. The bulbous tip is often due to excess cartilage and thick nasal skin and can be refined for a natural look. Rhinoplasty procedures are very complicated and delicate surgeries that require precision, expertise, and experience for natural and beautiful results. Working with a board-certified plastic surgeon with a successful track record that can provide detailed information about the process and expectations is critical.

Answer: Rhinoplasty to improve nasal shape... Based on your photos, you are a great candidate for rhinoplasty. The tip can be made thinner and the nose derotated some. Any rhinoplasty like this would be complex and it would be important to have a rhinoplasty specialist performing the surgery. Also, remember that the skin of your tip is thick, which will keep the nose from getting really thin.
