How much hump was taken off of this nose? The hump in the before
picture appears very small, so that entailed only a small reduction. But as
the tip of the nose was deprojected, more hump had to be removed, to keep
the dorsum from sticking out beyond the tip.
As you bring the tip of the nose back toward the face, you have to bring the
dorsum back closer to the face, too.

Questioner:
Is rhinoplasty like this possible or doable?
I used a projection app to tweak how my side profile looked and I was wondering if in theory a rhinoplasty like the one in the picture could be performed? I've looked through rhinoplasty before and afters and I haven't found one quite like this.
(Questioner submitted photos)
Dr. Denenberg's answer: Deprojecting a tip is rather predictable, in the right hands.
Yes, deprojecting a tip is very possible. Before selecting a plastic surgeon, you need to see photos of other patients of his who have had successful tip deprojections. It's an advanced technique that not every plastic surgeon can accomplish. See the Web reference link for an example.
