Even though it seems that only small changes were made in the revision,
revision rhinoplasty is still a difficult operation. After the first
operation, the inside of the nose contains scar tissue, and the second surgeon
must fight through that scar in order to make the changes he and the patient
desire. The scar tissue can put a limit on what is possible in a
revision operation.

Questioner:
Is it possible to change just the tip of my nose?
Is it possible to change just the tip of my nose without touching the bridge ? I don't want to get a small nose cause I know it won't suit my face. Thank you.
(Questioner submitted photos)
Dr. Denenberg's answer: It *is* possible to change just the tip, but ...
... when you change the tip of the nose, you also change how the rest of the nose looks, adjacent to the new tip, and often there are some adjustments to the rest of the nose that also make sense.
For example, the modification that I made in the video link below shows elevating and narrowing the tip of your nose. It's still strong in its forward projection from your face, but I reduced the strength of the bridge of the nose just a little bit, to match the tip.
It's the rare nose where you can work only, only on the tip, and still get an excellent result.
That make sense?
