The frontal view shows us that her nose was too short after her first
operation. We want to see just a bit of the nostrils from the frontal
view, indicating that the nose is turned up attractively, but not too
much. I think we see more nostril in the before view on this page than is
optimal. She shows less nostril in the after view.
In this before picture, you can also see some of the irregularities along the
dorsum as well as the prominent dent between the cartilages in her
columella.

Questioner:
Septo/rhinoplasty Consult?
Hello, I had a consult and CT scan showing I had a deviated septum. My surgeon had said if I cosmetically wanted to fix the tip of my nose, which has a deep cartilage split at the tip, giving the appearance of a "butt nose"...that it would be a couple of stitches when closing up. But I believe my nose turns up and the skin between the nostrils hangs, due to what I believe was terrible allergies and constant nose itching. What would be the best way to get a cuter shaped nose tip?
(Questioner submitted photos)
Dr. Denenberg's answer: Don't let that doctor operate on your nose!
Hi, BriC, "A couple of stitches when closing up" pegs your doctor as someone who knows nothing about rhinoplasty. You must not let him operate on your nose. Changing your "butt nose" requires complicated work on the tip of your nose, using advanced techniques that not all plastic surgeons understand.
