Is It Possible To Vertically Shorten The Nose? (photo)

Hi there,

 

Yes, it's possible to shorten the nose as you say.  It's a frequently used part of many rhinoplasties.

I recommend to understand realistically how you nose might look after a rhinoplasty, and to have a discussion around your preferences, to have a consultation with an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon who also utilises Vectra 3d imaging.  It's incredibly helpful.

 

Good luck.

It is possible to vertically shorten the nose by lowering the glabellar area and trimming back the caudal septum. Digital computer imaging would be helpful to understand what can be accomplished with your nose upon your facial features.  For many before and after rhinoplasty examples, please see the link and the video below

Thank you for your questions.  A large/long nose can be shortened by taking down the dorsum and elevating the tip.

I agree with your drawings. The projection of the bridge can be reduced and the tip rotation increased with a rhinoplasty. Pictures of your nose would be helpful, but your goals seem very realistic.
