Can a droopy nose tip be fixed with thick skin? Male, north Indian descent, mid 20s (Photos)

Asked By:realselfmember000 in New York, New York

No prev nose surgeries, breathing is good. I believe I have nasal tip ptosis & thicker than average nasal skin (from viewing it & skin is very oily). 1) Could a ptotic nose tip be fixed with thick skin? 2) Is there a way to lift the tip by shortening the nose & by avoiding projecting the tip? 3) Would this be a more challenging/risky case? Possible success rate? Some other desired adjustments: reduce hump, reduce nostril size, slightly less bulbous tip, deproject tip. I will come in for consults as well; thank you!
