Q. My nose is bulbous, so I’m thinking about rhinoplasty. Would tip plasty and cartilage grafting be possible?

I’m considering rhinoplasty, but my nose is bulbous. I want to refine the tip with tip plasty ➕ cartilage grafting. Would this procedure be okay?

I’m considering nose surgery, and my nose is a bulbous nose. I’m thinking of making the tip more refined with nasal tip plasty ➕ cartilage grafting, but is this procedure okay?

Bulbous noses can be improved by removing unnecessary soft tissue at the tip of the nose (flesh, fat, etc.) while grafting cartilage to the tip to give it a slight height and bring it together, narrowing the width of the nose. As you said, it would be nasal tip plasty ➕ cartilage grafting, but the diagnosis changes depending on the shape of the nose, so to be precise, we will decide after a consultation!
