Rhinoplasty for a round nose?

Hi. Yes, based on your simulated photo it is possible to achieve a shape similar to that. I would also consider a dorsal reduction at the same time to further harmonize your nose. Rhinoplasty is not an easy operation. Just ask the experts :)

Hello! Thank you for your question.As far as I can see from your photo you are suitable for rhinoplasty surgery. For get rid of this image and more natural and elegant nose I recommend you rhinoplasty surgery.It would be better face to face consultation.Best regards!

Hi from Istanbul! Reducing the size of the cartilages at the tip and suture shaping to bring them together would lessen the bulbous appearance and provide a better definition at the tip. However, tip reduction would cause the nasal bridge to look too wide compared to the tip; therefore, the bridge would also have to be reduced via osteotomies to provide harmony and a more proportionate look. It might sound complicated, but it is a frequently done type of surgery, yielding natural and aesthetically pleasing results. Best of luck on your journey!

You have what we refer to as a bulbous tip. This can be shaped towards the results you show by adjusting the cartilage under the nose. You should plan on meeting an experienced facial plastic surgeon who can do this readily.

Yes, you would benefit from a rhinoplasty to change the tip of the nose. This is done by manipulating the cartilage and the medial and lateral crura.

It would be very difficult to suggest whether full vs. tip rhinoplasty is a better solution in your case. In-person consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon, an expert in rhinoplasty, is recommended.

You are a good candidate for rhinoplasty. The nasal tip can be narrowed and more defined with rhinoplasty. Your profile is very nice but you have a slight dorsal hump which can be reduced and make it look even better.

Tip plasty versus full rhinoplasty: theoretically, a tip plasty could be done without further reduction of the slight dorsal hub and without further trimming of the projection of your nose. However when a tip plasty is performed there is some reduction in the projection of the tip. This would make your dorsal hump appear larger and may have a detrimental effect on your profile. Generally when one part of the nose is changed the other parts should be changed to keep everything in harmony. The prettiest profile would be obtained with a full rhinoplasty along with the tip plasty.

Yes, rhinoplasty to address the tip of the nose, often referred to as "tip rhinoplasty" or "tip refinement," can be a beneficial procedure for individuals who have specific concerns or aesthetic issues with the appearance of their nasal tip. Based on your photos, it is definitely possible to refine your nasal tip. Regarding your question of whether you are an "easy" case, while rhinoplasty is a common and well-practiced surgical procedure, it is not considered easy by even the most experienced surgeons. Ultimately you should schedule a consultation an proceed with a surgeon that you trust.

YEs, it is possible to get you more tip refinement via a rhinoplasty. You also have thicker skin over the tip, so the level of refinement will be slightly limited due to skin thickness, but additional refinement can be achieved by manipulating the cartilage.
