I have a really wide nose with a bulbous tip, large nostrils and my nose is also projected too far from my face. It's not harmonious with the rest of my face. My brother has had rhinoplasty done on his nose but he thinks it's still too big, I'm worried this will happen to me. How much smaller it can actually be made? I want to be realistic but not be left with a nose that is still too big. I am booking my consultation tomorrow so I guess I will find out in a few weeks. Thanks in advance!
Answer: Wide Nose With Bulbous Tip - How To Improve? Choosing the right plastic surgeon is one of the biggest decisions you will make in your life. It is very important that your plastic surgeon understands the aesthetic you want, and helps to educate you so you can make the best decision possible in terms of how you will look for the rest of your life. After over two decades of experience, I can attest to the fact that it is crucial to assess all of your facial features to determine what shape/size nose will harmonize with your face. I hope your consultation went well, and that your surgeon listened to all of your concerns and answered all of your questions.

Answer: How much smaller can your nose be made? How much smaller can your nose be made?Based on your photos, you do not seem to have an excessively large nose, or excessively thick tip, which might place limitations on the amount of size reduction. You should be able to have a smaller nose to the extent that you wish and to the extent it is consistent with aesthetic norms.

Answer: Rhinoplasty You are an excellent candidate for a rhinoplasty. Your nose projects forward from your face quite a bit. It has been my observation that open rhinoplasties tend to leave the nose too large compared to closed rhinoplasty. Also there is often a tendency not to shorten the nose adequately When you go on consults I’m sure the surgeon can show you what is possible.

Answer: Nasal tip de-projection Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photograph, you may benefit from a tip refining rhinoplasty. Your surgeon can accomplish this by trimming, suturing, and reshaping the cartilage in your lower nose. Cartilage grafts may also be used to help improve tip refinement. You may also benefit from a nasal tip de-projection to make the overall size of your nose smaller and a conservative dorsal hump reduction. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and not just a computer animation system. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Rhinoplasty candidate, some advices: Thank you very much for sharing your concerns with us.The harmony between facial parts makes us instinctively recognize the beauty... without knowing it, without defining it, just a perception that surprises and captivates us.In this regard, I suggest perform a Closed Rhinoplasty (without visible scars) to treat the tip, base and nasal bridge.With this procedure you get a delicate nose, better harmonize with your other facial features.Respectfully,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-
