Rhinoplasty for South Asian female - will I be able to achieve a natural looking result? (Photo)

Your nose is expected to achieve excellent results through hump reduction, osteotomy, and tip plasty. For hump reduction, the dorsal preservation technique is recommended, and performing it alongside septal correction can deliver highly satisfactory outcomes. Tip plasty should not only focus on reducing the volume of the nasal tip but also address asymmetry and correct the pinched appearance on one side.

You have reasonable functional and aesthetic expectations, and an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon should be able to deliver you excellent results. Having clear communication with your surgeon regarding your goals and expected results will help to ensure a successful result.

Yes - this should be no problem. We can address each of these concerns - the bump, the twist, the irregularities, the asymmetry, the tip, and the breathing. I'd expect that to take about 90 minutes.

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photographs, you are a great candidate for rhinoplasty. Maneuvers for your surgery would include dorsal hump reduction, tip refinement, straightening your mid vault, tip elevation, among other maneuvers. With good surgical technique, you could have an outstanding result. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified rhinoplasty surgeon who can evaluate you in person.

Best wishes and good luck.
