The nose is a fundamental part to the harmony of the face. For this reason, my patients resort to a Rhinoplasty for positive outcomes and achieving a balance in their face.
The size and the shape of the nose are two of the most common reasons that many patients decide to undergo a rhinoplasty. What are other common types of noses that generate discontent in people? Here are some of them:
Nose with unequal Tip: are those noses, which one of the sides of the tip can be different from the other. In some cases, one side can be larger, smaller, or slightly twisted to one side. This type of nose has to do with the underlying cartilage; these irregularities can be causes from an injury or a genetic factor.
Nose with a prolonged nasal tip: is when the tip of a nose sticks out and makes the size of the nose look bigger.
There are two options to treat a nose with a prolonged nasal tip; the first involves raising the bridge of the nose, so that the bridge matches the shape of the tip. The second option has to do with reducing the nasal tip.
Depressed nose: the nose has a depression or has collapsed on the surface along the nasal bridge.
Big nose: patients have a Rhinoplasty to reduce the size of their nose with respect to the size of their face or because they want to reshape their nose after the growth over the years.
Elongated nose: a nose with excessive length when looking at a person’s profile. With plastic surgery, the nose is shortened to recover a normal length.
