Her first rhinoplasty operation, performed elsewhere, left her with those two bizarre-looking bumps
on the left side of her nose. Her plastic surgeon told her that there was
nothing that could be done about those bumps. The photo on the right was
taken after her revision rhinoplasty in my office.
Rhinoplasty is by far the most difficult of the plastic surgery
operations. You must be extremely careful in making your selection of a
doctor. FacialSurgery.com has a page containing
advice
on how to find a competent plastic surgeon.

Questioner:
Can my nose tip be lifted and made smaller? I want a lip lift. too. Will it give me a good image?
(Questioner submitted photos)
Dr. Denenberg's answer: Nose: yes. Lip: no.
Hi. I agree that your nose, while certainly not terribly long, is at the longer end of a range of normal, and if your tastes run to shorter noses, a significant elevation of the tip is possible and fine. It also appears that you have strong cartilages in the tip of your nose, and some narrowing of those cartilages might be good, too.
Work on the tip cartilages often comprises advanced techniques that not every plastic surgeon can accomplish, so be sure to see before and after photos of the doctor's work before selecting a surgeon.
The lip lift: no, no, no! It would leave a visible scar at the bottom of your nose, and your lip already looks great! A lip lift is for someone with a ***much*** longer upper lip than yours!
