This nose, which appears to be so projecting in this view, actually isn't over-projecting.  It was injured in an accident, and the nose was pushed over to the left side of his face.  His left.  There appears to be a large hump in the lower part of his dorsum, just above his tip, but that's an illusion, caused by the sideward deflection of his nose from the accident.

Compare this view with his view #3, and you'll see how very different his nose looks from the two sides.

Questioner: What's the least invasive procedure to correct the bump on my left nostril?
The bump has gotten worse over the years. It feels as though the cartilage cracked. I can kinda push down on the bump and put it "into place." I'm not looking for the perfect nose. Ihave a deviated septum and my nose sways to my left. Again, my nose doesn't have to be perfect...I'm only interested in the least evasive procedure to correct or smooth this bump on left nostril area.
(Questioner submitted photos)

Dr. Denenberg's answer: There's no tiny operation to fix the bump
Hi,
That "bump" is one of the two cartilages that make up your tip. There's a bump on the other side, too, but it's smaller.
In order to minimize the bump, those cartilages need to be modified, and that's a rhinoplasty. You need an experienced surgeon with excellent before and after photos. Many plastic surgeons don't have the skill to make an accurate correction of your "bump," because it has to do with modifying those tip cartilages, somewhat of an advanced technique, in my experience.
