Is it necessary to use rib cartilage to achieve a narrower nasal bridge in revision rhinoplasty? (P
Narrowing the bridge
Oct 16, 2018
While many rhinoplasties include osteotomies for nasal bridge narrowing, the bridge can still look wide.  What causes this can be different in each case, but some are due to a bridge that is scooped too low – A rib graft would help to correct this.   While others are due to osteotomies that are not sufficiently moved inward to achieve the appearance that is desired – osteotomies would correct this.  Your particular case may depend on what is causing your issue.   Consultation with an experi…

Correcting a scooped bridge
Oct 16, 2018
Dear Tania, During the healing process, the bridge of your nose will go through many different appearances as the swelling subsides and the healing tissue remodels to its final thickness.  This may result in a less scooped look as time goes on, but in some cases may result in more of a scoop.  While some patients specifically request a scooped nose, it is my experience that most people undergoing rhinoplasty are now looking for more natural looking bridge profiles.  I would suggest you dis…

Asymmetric tilted nose
Oct 11, 2018
Thanks for your question and photos.  The foundation of the nose is based on the central wall of the nose – the septum.  In cases like yours, an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon would be able to correct the septum and external crookedness or tilt of your nose, thereby correcting the underlying reason for the external appearance of your nose.  A series of techniques would need to be applied including osteotomies (internal cuts in the bone to reposition the bridge of the nose), septoplasty, and…
Is it possible to contour my asymmetrical, bulbous nose tip (and make my nostrils smaller too)? (ph
Asymmetric Bulbous Tip
Oct 11, 2018
The nasal tip is made of skin, subcutaneous tissue and cartilage.  Any of the above structures can be responsible for tip asymmetry and bulbousness.  From your pictures it appears to be a combination of tip cartilage asymmetry and thick skin.  Both of these issues can be addressed with open rhinoplasty.  The reason I would recommend open vs endonasal (closed) is that the open approach allows for improved ability to address asymmetries with attention to detail.  You appear to be a good candi…

postoperative swelling after rhinoplasty
Mar 29, 2017
Hi BraveSoul.This is a particularly difficult time for rhinoplasty patients as the swelling is at its worst during the 2nd-4th week.  It also happens to be the time you are feeling better and starting to look in the mirror again.  Remember, as your surgeon probably told you, there are several stages to healing and there will be gradual change that comes in waves during the healing period.  It is hard to tell without having been in your surgery, but in my experience, the radix tends to be s…

Mar 8, 2017
Dear SYou appear to be a great candidate for rhinoplasty surgery to correct the hump on your bridge.  The best first approach is to visit rhinoplasty specialist in your area who have results that fit your taste.

Revision rhinoplasty
Mar 8, 2017
Hi,
The asymmetries that you see are definitely not normal at this time in the healing process.  You should definitely begin to seek advise from revision rhinoplasty specialists.  In the right hands, asymmetries even more obvious than these can be corrected.  There are fortunately many qualified surgeons to correct this issue within your own neighborhood! 
Am I a candidate for stand-alone alarplasty?
Alarplasty alone
Feb 21, 2017
Thanks for your question regarding alarplasty without other rhinoplasty techniques.  While Alarplasty can technically be performed without other changes to the nose, this may result in a “mismatch” or imbalance between the tip of the nose and the alar base width.  As you narrow the tip the alar base looks wider, and vice versa.  This makes these cases highly dependent on each other and therefore these should be considered together in almost all cases.  Another thing regarding your que…
Is it impossible to lengthen and narrow a retracted nose simultaneously?
Nasal lengthening
Nov 13, 2016
Labrador90210,It is difficult to know what your surgeon’s experience was in the operating room, and without pictures.  Often, revision surgery can be unpredictable in the operating room, and the procedure will have to be adjusted during surgery from the exact plan that was discussed with the patient.  In this case, it is best to trust your surgeon’s gut feelings about your surgery, and if proper time has elapsed, then seek consultation in person with qualified revision rhinoplasty surgeons i…
What can I do to narrow the bony part of my nose?
Nasal dorsum narrowing
Nov 13, 2016
Dylan,

At this stage in healing, I would trust the experience and investment your surgeon has made in your nose.  If you are unhappy and would like to have the problem corrected, then the original surgeon is the best choice for this correction to be done. 

Sometimes excessive bony dorsum width after rhinoplasty is correctable with rasping of the sides of the nasal bones.  Occasionally, the osteotomies may not heal as expected, and the bones may widen during the healing.  This can somet…
