Fix droppy nose tip with Botox or depressor septi muscle? (photos)

Unfortunately, severing the depressor muscle will not lift the nasal tip. Neither will Botox. In our experience, the best way to rotate a nasal tip is with tip plasty surgery. Thank you for your question. Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Microdroplets of Botox at the base of the nose to the sides of the columella can by themselves result in a lift of a droopy nasal tip and so can the use of a bolus of the appropriate filler placed at the base of the columella. The results of the latter are immediate; Botox takes up to a week to work. Performed together, there is typically a synergistic effect that leads to more durable results that can last for a year or more in my experience. Hope this helps and best of luck.

Some surgeons perform that procedure. It's simple to do but keep your expectations on the modest side. Unfortunately it's one of those hit or miss procedures
