One of the advantages of using an artificial material to build up the nose (as I did here) is its easy availability: just unwrap the package.  Many plastic surgeons like to use the patient's own cartilage to augment a nose like this.  Frequently, however, a nose that has been injured has broken and injured cartilage inside, which might make that cartilage unavailable for the task of augmenting the nose.

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.
