Q. Next year I plan to have a rhinoplasty to fix several difference characteristics of my nose that I dislike. They are the size of the tip, sixe of the nose, shape size of the nostrils, a bump, the bridge, and the constant redness. I would like to know, is it realistic for me to expect all of these things to be fixed in one surgery?,

 

A. Thank you for your enquiry. The only part that is never improved by the surgery is the redness, and in fact it can be made worse by the operation because of the interference with blood supply to the skin. The redness of the nose can be improved by intense pulsed light treatments, laser treatments, or if the redness is due to rosacea, dermatology advice should be sought. With regards to the reshaping of the nose, it is possible to evaluate the points you have raised on a computer simulation either on standard photographs or in 3-D. This allows for a more accurate discussion and planning, as well as an evaluation of what is reasonable to expect from a surgical intervention.

Q. 5 months ago I had a small lump (from a previous injury) removed from the front of my nose. Has healed well but has left an indentation which really upsets me. Looks like someone’s pressed it in. I wonder if an injectable filler would help. My GP says I must leave it a year to settle first.,

 

A. Thank you for your enquiry. In general terms, allowing it more time to settle will create a situation where it is easier to evaluate how much improvement is necessary. If you are contemplating using a temporary filler based on hyaluronic acid, like Restylane or equivalent, it would be safe to do the treatment at this stage also.

Q. I am half Asian and half Enlgish, I want a flat nose is that possible? Regards,

 

A. Thank you for your enquiry. It is possible to reshape the nose in many ways, but to be honest I think the most important part is to try to have a clear representation of the shape you would like to achieve before clarifying whether it is within achievable range. This can take place using computer imaging and simulation either based on standard photographs and 3-D images.

Q. I want to know more about nose reshaping as im thinking of getting it done and how much the procedure will cost. Its mainly the nose tip I would liek seen to but any other advixce or sugestions of how my nose could look beter would be great. I can send pictures if necessary.,

 

A. Thank you for your enquiry. At the time of the consultation it is possible to define using both computer imaging from standard photographs and in 3-D what it is that you would like to achieve as a result of surgery. The plan for reshaping the nose follows your priorities, but by necessity the results will always be somewhat different from the computer imaging.

Q. Hi there , I have a large nose with a rather big bump which i am really self conscious about. Since my early early teens at high school ive had little confidence and shown to suffer from self esteem . Im 17 now and have been researching , well looking into rhinoplasty for quite some time now , i had a few questions if you wouldn’t mind answering. Firstly , What is the minimum age to go under rhinoplasty ,2nd, whats the average price for the procedure , 3rd , how does the consultation form and what happens , 4th , i live in surrey woking , any suggestions as to where i could go under rhinoplasty for the foreseeable future ? Thank you very much your help is appreciated. Jamal,

 

A. Thank you for your enquiry. The general terms, I prefer to carry out the rhinoplasty surgery after the age of 18, when the facial development enters a slower phase of change. During the consultation, I try to evaluate together with the patients what is the type and degree of change that they would like to achieve, and using a computer simulation to elaborate on the details. In addition, during the consultation it is important to understand regarding the risks related to the surgery, the anticipated recovery sequence and the other options available.

Q. hi, My nose is not to big but is slightly on the long & pointy side, i would like to shorten it but im worried that doing this may make my nostrils appear bigger and longer?,

 

A. Thank you for your enquiry. It is a common impression that shortening of the nose automatically means increased visibility of the nostrils. This however does not hold true, in particular for the open tip rhinoplasty approach. If you would like to have a look at my website at the rhinoplasty outcomes gallery: http://www.allaboutcosmeticsurgery.co.uk/gallery/rhinoplasty, you will notice that the images labelled 26, 18, 14, 12, and 73 show significant reduction of the nasal length but without increased visibility of the nostrils from the front view and without elongation of the nostrils.
