Leona Lewis' nose job is astounding. Are results like this possible? Or is it rare to have as much cartilage taken off as her surgeon did?
Answer: What can one expect form a rhinoplasty result. Hi legallyblond502; The results you see are potentially achievable with modern rhinoplasty techniques but it depends on the composition and size of your nose. These days, the results you see are partly due to the reduction of structure but not as much as you would think. It is the way the cartilage structure is reshaped to provide a smaller but more natural and stronger framework on which the skin is draped. In the past, often too much structure was removed, not reshaped, which resulted in a "surgical nose" that looked overdone and pinched. Good results in rhinoplasty require both artistic and technical talent. Our office has the Vectra 3D imager which allows you to look at your potential results; but it is an old fashioned consultation and examination with your plastic surgeon to see what is realistic and what will meet your expectations. The nose in each individual is unique and personal which makes nose surgery so much fun, artistically speaking. Communication with the doctor is key to establish the best result. BTW: I think that Legally Blonde is a classic. Reese Witherspoon does such a good job in it.

Answer: Reducing the nasal width Yes, it is possible to achieve rhinoplasty results like this. Leona Lewis has relatively thin skin which is beneficial in acheiving a more refined tip. It's important to avoid over resecting the nasal cartilage as that can lead to a pinched look and trouble breathing. You can check out my web reference link below to read more about how rhinoplasty can be used to refine the tip.

Answer: Rhinoplasty results in female patients Based on this one set of photos - the hallmarks of this patient's cosmetic result include narrowing of the dorsal aesthetic lines and refinement of the nasal tip. Both of the changes are possible with standard open rhinoplasty techniques.

Answer: Leona Lewis Rhinoplasty Outcome These type of results are certainly possible. But in many cases it goes beyond just trimming and reshaping cartilage. It also depends on whether or not the skin requires thinning to achieve more definition - especially so in the ethnic rhinoplasty patient.
