Am I an ideal candidate for septorhinoplasty? What changes would look nice for my nose? (photos)

October 3, 2021
Asked By:rabidkadoatie in Watertown, Connecticut

I'm a 27F who is looking to get a septorhinoplasty. I haven't given much thought to what I want to do besides eliminate the bump and raise the tip. I do think the front view of my nose is rather bulbous and undefined, but I suspect I may have thick skin, so I'm not sure how attainable changes would be. In terms of functional issues, I have a deviated septum and have dealt with chronic post nasal drip my entire adult life that I'm hoping can be improved with the septoplasty. Could it help?

Bruce K. Smith, MD says:

Yes, you would benefit from rhinoplasty but your nose has many attractive features. Something to consider before surgery, would be to have a "non-surgica"l rhinoplasty with filler to the upper portion of your nose or "radix' area. Many patients are so happy with filler, that they do not proceed...

Yes you have given a good estimation of what to aim for. The dorsal hump needs to be reduced and the tip needs to be lifted. A rhinoplasty can achieve that. Regards Dr. J
