Question 1

Can a bulbous tip be corrected with thick skin?

Accepted Answer

During a nose tip surgery, Dr Kleid can refine the appearance of a bulbous nose tip despite the thickness of the nasal tip skin. He achieves this by using special suturing techniques, meticulous tip cartilage reshaping, and even cartilage grafts. Dr Kleid will modify the surgical methods he uses during a tip nose job depending on each patient’s nose anatomy and skin type.

Question 2

How much does a bulbous rhinoplasty cost?

Accepted Answer

The cost of bulbous nose surgery will vary depending on several factors.

Your surgeon will first give you a consultation to assess your cosmetic needs and the amount of work that needs to be done to fix your bulbous nose tip. After that, you will be offered an estimation of the expenses of your nose tip reshaping surgery depending on the type of anaesthesia used, the location of the surgery, the needed surgical equipment, and whether you’ll need additional corrections to fix other breathing or cosmetic nose problems.

Question 3

Can I get rhinoplasty just for the nasal tip?

Accepted Answer

Many patients who just want to change the appearance of their nose tip opt for a rhino-tip surgery instead of a full rhinoplasty. It’s important to note that when you change how the tip of your nose looks, the entire appearance of your nose will change as well. That’s why it’s critical to choose an experienced and skilled specialist surgeon who will make sure that your new nose tip will suit the rest of your nose and other facial features. Your surgeon might suggest other adjustments to your nose to ensure the balance of your reduced nose tip with the rest of your nose.

Question 4

Can I get a revision rhinoplasty for a boxy nose tip?

Accepted Answer

Many patients come to Dr Stephen Kleid to fix a bulbous nose after getting a rhinoplasty at another clinic. They’re usually still concerned about how their nose tip looks after their nose job and want more refinement of the nasal tip. Revision rhinoplasty for a bulbous tip can be considered depending on several factors including the results of their previous nose job, how many nose surgeries they’ve had, and the level of scarring beneath their nasal tip. After careful consideration, Dr Kleid will offer you the best options for your nose tip correction. Read Fixing a Failed Nose Job with Revision Rhinoplasty to learn more.
