I am a 23-year-old female with an average height of 5'2". I am considering Rhinoplasty but have reservations about the success of the procedure in terms of what I want. Is it possible to change my bulbous nose tip and convert into the kind shown in the 2nd photo?
Answer: Changing a bulbous nose tip to a sharp one Thank-you for your question. A bulbous nose tip can certainly be improved and made sharp, depending on the thickness of the skin. There are multiple techniques involved from trimming the cartilages and the fibro-fatty tissue, to suture techniques and grafts. Please find an experienced Board certified Plastic surgeon near you who can help you achieve the best possible results. All the best!

Answer: Yes! Your expectations are reasonable. In order to get your nose from where it is to where you want it to be, you are going to need a rhinoplasty with a trimming of the cartilages of the nose tip and suturing them in a way that creates a more refined tip. You may also need the nostrils to be trimmed because when the tip is refined, the nostrils may flare out a little bit. This surgery can be done in 2-3 hours as part of a general surgical rhinoplasty.

Answer: Nasal tip Hi, You can certainly have rhinoplasty to help in narrowing the tip of your nose, give it more definition, and reduce its bulbous appearance. It is best for you to consult with a rhinoplasty surgeon and discuss the details of what your nose could look like after the surgery.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Thank you for your question. You are an excellent candidate for rhinoplasty. I think rhinoplasty is one of the most beautifying surgeries that we do as plastic surgeons. A large portion of my practice is dedicated to rhinoplasty surgery. It is important to only see plastic surgeons with extensive experience in rhinoplasty, ie perform at least 6 per month and have performed hundreds of cases. Also, critically evaluate on-line galleries to see if their art form resonates with yours. Rhinoplasty is definitely a grey haired plastic surgeon's sport. Best wishes to you.
