Q: I have an upturned pig like nose. Can Asian rhinoplasty surgery help rotate my nose downwards and make it more pointy? I hate how my nostrils easily show when I take pcitures. I also like the look of the tip of the nose going downwards, and in front view the nose looks like a “V” shape. Is this possible?
A: During Asian rhinoplasty, the tip of the nose can be counter-rotated and thus made to look longer and less “pig” like. The V-shape you like can be re-created by extending the columella (area between the nostrils) downward, and adding volume to your infratip (area below the tip of your nose). Paramount to a successful result is finding a surgeon with the skill and experience to achieve those changes, while sharing your aesthetic vision.
