This patient's improvement was not the result of a face lift at all: she only
had a liposuction under the chin. Liposuction cannot be performed as the
only procedure unless the skin is young and elastic enough to
"shrink-wrap" to the contour of the neck after the excess fat under
the skin is
removed.
In a person who has lived long enough to lose skin elasticity, the skin would
just hang down unattractively if the fat were removed without using a face lift
to tighten the skin at the same time.

Questioner:
Does the tip of my nose look too big?
I had a revision rhinoplasty about 14 months ago. The doctor added spreader grafts and a tip graft and brought my nostrils in a little bit. My nose still looks too wide and full at the tip. What do you think can be done to improve the look of my nose? It just seems very full to me. Thanks for your answers!
(Questioner submitted photos)
Dr. Denenberg's answer: Seems to me that the tip of your nose droops, besides being a little wide.
Hi,
I see the fullness that you describe, but to my eye, much of the "fullness" is that the tip of the nose hangs down more than you might like it. See the video link for a simulation I made of the changes that could be possible in a revision, if the surgeon is truly expert in shortening a nose during a revision.
