My surgeon recommended to rotate my tip up. He truly thought my nose dropped too much. I regret to agree to it. My nose dropped when I smiled like Mika Brezinski's nose. It seems to me rotating the tip up is a routinely recommended procedure. I am looking for a skilled revision rhinoplastic surgeon in the US or Canada who could bring the 'drop' back and also sees the beauty in it. Mika Brezinski is beautiful even though her nose drops when she smiles. I had a similar smile to hers. Not anymore.
Answer: De-rotating the nasal tip Hi Krisztina, while it is difficult to tell from your front view photo where your nasal tip is positioned, it is certainly possible to de-rotate a nasal tip downwards. The process will require placement of additional cartilage to help support the tip structures in the new, lowered position. Once positioned, your nasal tip will be less likely to drop further down when you smile. Hope this helps.

In addition, a thoroughly internal and external examination of the nose usually required due to the fact that a revision rhinoplasty is the most difficult procedure to perform correctly in the entire field of cosmetic surgery. It may be possible to de-rotate the tip of the nose, but it is dependent upon many variables which include previous alterations of the anatomy, scar tissue, and the current position and relationships of the nasal tip cartilages
