Thick Skin and Hump Reduction
Apr 9, 2019
Although a definitive opinion can’t be given with the few pictures you provide, there are certain generalities that might help. There is a limit to how much thick skin will shrink to match the reduced bony cartilaginous framework. When this thick skin gathers, it tends to be at the supra-tip area where the skin wants to “bow-string” from the reduced bridge to the tip, thus obscuring the desired supra-tip break. Edema fluid accumulates under this elevated skin and eventually edema gives way…
I just was curious how my nose ended up this way?

Mar 20, 2019
It is tremendously disappointing to have a realistic expectation of improvement and to experience little improvement and perhaps worsening of the overall gestalt of the nose. Not to say the surgeon did anything wrong and certainly not beneath the standard of care,yet there may be things that could have been done better. In nay case, this is not one of those noses that you have to wait 6-12 months to know that there is too much hanging columella and alar retraction and nostril show and…
The dorsal hump can it be an easy fix without going trough another operation?
Dorsal Hump
Mar 20, 2019
It is surprising to me that you had not resolved the issue of reducing your hump prior to undergoing a rhinoplasty. Perhaps you emphasized the tip problems and desired to have minimal change or wanted your ethnic look to remain…in any case you have a hump. I think injectables are a poor cousin to surgery and often make a large nose look bigger. In your case, since the take-off of your nose is already high and close to your eyebrows, and your forehead appears to slope; there is a danger in…
Is my tip turned a little upward or is it just me?
Tip Rotation
Dec 11, 2018
It is hard for me to tell if you had a silicone “L” shaped implant placed because your profile picture is not well presented and I can’t tell if you have had a bridge augmentation. It is a common undesirable side effect of those implants to create a tip projection that is too rotated. Whether or not you had an implant augmentation or a reductive rhinoplasty, It does appear from your oblique view that the angle between your upper lip and your columella and tip is excessive and you have more…

Swollen Tip
Dec 11, 2018
Please listen to the doctors who have responded and realize that:1) You are not crazy and your tip is swollen 2) you will drive yourself crazy if you keep focusing on your tip size and your anxiety about it will not make your nose get smaller. 3) Not a single one of us surgeons wants to be judged by our rhinoplasty tips at 22 days because the tip always holds onto swelling longer than the rest of the nose and especially after open rhinoplasty. 4) The tip will no doubt be much less…
What should I get done on my nose?
Hanging Columella
Dec 11, 2018
I think the first thing to realize is that you are an attractive young lady and please don’t feel that you “should” do something about your nose. Having said that, I suspect you feel that your nose is not your most attractive feature and that is probably true. Now, if you are committed to having a cosmetic rhinoplasty, I will make some suggestions that are more specific that some of the other answers. (Of course only a hands-on in-person consult can give you a truly detailed plan): 1)….
What Is The Proper Way For Me To Clean The Dried Mucus Out Of My Nose 3 Weeks Post-Op?
cleaning nostrils
Oct 29, 2018
Hello,
Since I do closed rhinoplasty, it is important to gently clean inside the nostrils where the suture lines are located. We recommend using saline nasal spray in each nostril a few times a day, followed by a q-tip dipped in hydrogen peroxide and gently applied inside each nostril. You can also apply bacitracin ointment inside your nostrils as well. Check with your surgeon’s office for their specific instructions as they may vary.
Best of Luck,
Richard P. Clark M.D.
What is the typical rhinoplasty recovery like?
healing time
Oct 23, 2018
In most cases recovery from Rhinoplasty will take 10 to 14 days. You will most likely have a splint/cast on your nose for the first 7 days but residual swelling and bruising can last longer.
I tell my patients to not
look at the front view with scrutiny for two to three weeks by which time about
80% of swelling is gone. The profile will look better before the front view.
Avoiding exercise and hot tubs and such stimulation and strategic post op
taping can definitely limit and guide the…
Can I correct this huge, thick skinned, overprojected nose tip?
Nose with thick skin
Sep 28, 2017
The African American category of ethnic
rhinoplasty is not simple since northern Egyptian-type noses may have a much
higher bridge than people of a more equatorial African origin and many people
who classify themselves as African American are of mixed race and perhaps
inherited some Asian or Caucasian or Hispanic or whatever qualities in their
nose in addition to traits from their Black parent. A common denominator in
many of my Black patients has been the following:
1] Thick skin (which…
Should I seek separate surgeons for Rhinoplasty and Breast Aug? Suggestions for Drs with extensive ex
Choosing a surgeon
Sep 28, 2017
As long as you have a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who has extensive experience in both Rhinoplasty and Breast Augmentation you should be able to use just one surgeon for both procedures. Consider consulting with multiple surgeons before choosing who best fits your needs. I have included a blog post I wrote regarding choosing a surgeon for Rhinoplasty. It is a long read with complicated but thorough advice. I hope it will help you with your decision. Best wishes.
