In this fully-lit oblique view, you can see that she has some irregular
pigmentation as a complication of the peel. Follow from the front of her
chin, along her jaw line up toward the ear and see how the skin color changes.
She was at a much higher than average risk of a noticeable pigmentation
change because she had so much pigment in her skin before surgery. If the
skin has a noticeable change after surgery, it's usually that the peeled skin is
lighter than it was before the operation. The lighter your skin, the less
pigmentation you have before surgery, and the less likely you are to have a
noticeable change.
She was still an excellent candidate for the peel, however, because we
anticipated such a marvelous improvement that we thought we could live with a
little pigment irregularity.

Questioner:
Can a Bulbous Nose Be Reduced Without Looking Weird or Changing Your Look
(Questioner submitted photos)
Dr. Denenberg's answer: Of course a bulbous nose tip can be reduced
Hi,
Advanced work on the tip of the nose during a rhinoplasty is routine for plastic surgeons who have the training and experience.
It goes without saying that you should see before and after photos of the surgeon whom you are considering using. And don't just look at profile views where perhaps a hump was taken down off the nasal bridge. It's the three-quarter views, or the oblique views, that best show the width and the prominence of the tip of the nose.
