Hello, I have met with a great plastic surgeon who has advised on a full Rhino septoplasty however, I don't want such an invasive procedure. I dislike my droopy tip, especially when i smile. Is there any other less invasive procedure that could benefit the removal of the droop permanently? I find i have a lot of excess cartilage in the tip and i feel removal of the cartilage and rotation of the tip can improve my side profile.
Answer: In our experience, you may not be a candidate for a non-surgical rhinoplasty. Based on your photos, you have an overprojected nasal profile appearance with a dorsal hump and a pointy droopy tip. If you are looking to achieve a less distracting and more feminine nasal profile appearance, I am unaware of any non-surgical techniques that would address your concerns. Thank you for your question and I hope this is helpful. Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Answer: Tip rhinoplasty: what you should know Thank you for your question and photos. Since you’re only interested in changing the appearance of your nasal tip, you may be a candidate for tip rhinoplasty. This procedure doesn’t require that the nose bone be broken or reshaped and instead focuses on redefining the tip and narrowing the nostrils.

Answer: Rhinoplasty surgery Hello! Thank you for your question.From the photos you provided your nose is droopy and you have a very visible hump. I highly recommend you a rhinoplasty surgery to get rid of the droopy tip. This is the only permanent solution. I can understand that you may be a little afraid of getting a full surgery under general anesthesia but I can assure you that most of the post-op patients say that after the surgery they don't have too much pain. More than pain you may expect some discomfort especially when you have the cast, but after the cast removal you will feel way better. Best regards!

Answer: To fix the droopiness of the nose tip only First of all, thanks for your question. In more than 95% of patients, applying all steps of rhinoplasty is necessary. For the remaining 5%, tipplasty (correction of only the tip of the nose) or alarplasty (correction of the nostrils) or to reduce the projection only may be sufficient. I think making this decision will be appropriate after a thorough evaluation. Yes, some patients find a complete nose job worrisome. With new techniques (such as ultrasonic rhinoplasty), good results can be obtained at the end of a very comfortable process. I wish you a beautiful and a healthy day!
