Are there any non surgical options for me or is surgery the way to go to fix this ?
Hello,Yes - this needs to be revised. We need to address the cartilage and smooth the areas. It can be done in surgery but shouldn't take very long.
Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photograph, you may benefit from a tip refining revision rhinoplasty and dorsal hump reduction. Your surgeon can accomplish this by trimming, suturing, and reshaping the cartilage in your lower nose. Cartilage grafts may also be used to help improve tip refinement. Tensioning the tip will also be helpful. 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.Richard G.
