Seeking revision - Overprojected tip Pinocchio nose, will I get this desired outcome? (photos)

March 29, 2017
Asked By:uglynose2 in Toronto, ON

I had primary open rhinoplasty in Dec.2015. The goal was to remove bump, reduce overall projection, preserve front. The bump was successfully removed, but the tip projection wasn’t changed, my nose is curved inward with overprojected tip, out of balance. A tip reduction could improve my nose appearance. I ptotoshoped my recent photos to show how I would like to see my nose to be de-projected (tip only). Any advice on surgical techniques to achieve the desired outcome will be appreciated

Answer: De-projecting a tip is usually a fairly predictable change to make, even in a revision.
