The oblique views that are more darkly lit are the best views in which to see the strength of the cartilages that form the tip of her nose.  The more rounded those cartilages are, and the thinner the skin that covers the tip, the more we are able to see the outline and the curves of the strong cartilages.

The surgery on those tip cartilages is also what allows the tip of the nose to elevate, shortening the nose, and to move back toward the face.

Questioner: Am I a Good Candidate for These Rhinoplasty Procedures?
I would like to get cosmetic surgery to reduce my dorsal hump and possible Radix reduction. Would I be a good candidate for these procedures? Would I require additional refinements other than what I mentioned? Is closed Rhinoplasty an option? I am unhappy with the bump, and height of my nose. It is also very wide and causes difficulties when I want to wear glasses.
(Questioner submitted photos)

Dr. Denenberg's answer: Radix reduction is important in your nose
If the hump is removed, the radix must be taken down as well, or you nose would look too long, like a Roman statue's nose. Also, raising the tip would help, as well as bringing the entire nose back, closer to your face. See the link to see what these changes could do for your nose.
