Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Main concern is dorsal hump & function – are my goals realistic?
Realistic goals
Nov 1, 2022
Hi alcg2017! Dr. Walter Joseph here from Beverly Hills, CA! Based on your photos, I think your goals are certainly realistic! A dorsal reduction can be performed (i.e. removing the “bump”), while still maintaining a straight bridge WITHOUT a ski sloped or scooped appearance. As for your tip, it would totally be up to you as to if you want any tip work done whatsoever. Some patients choose to preserve their tip while only addressing the dorsal hump, which is both reasonable and achievable! I…
Am I a good candidate for rhinoplasty to remove bump and nostrils?
Candidate for rhinoplasty
Nov 1, 2022
Hi Chlo98! Thanks for your question. At least from your photos, you are certainly a candidate for rhinoplasty. A surgical rhinoplasty would be able to lower your dorsum (remove the bump) and also de-rotate and de-project the tip of the nose so that your nostrils show less on both the front and side views. Also, with cartilage grafting and special maneuvers like an alar base excision (Weir excision), the nostril size can be decreased further and the ala can be better supported.
Bruising…
Is there any procedure to decrease the alar crease prominence?
Alar crease prominence
Nov 1, 2022
Hi SpiceMix! Thanks for your question. Dr. Walter Joseph here from sunny Beverly Hills, CA! As we age, we lose bone density and develop some soft tissue atrophy in what’s called the “pyriform” area of the nose, which is the structure deep to the alar crease that you’re describing. Also, some people (regardless of age!) have a genetically deeper set pyriform than others, which can also make the alar crease more pronounced. A nice treatment for this is to inject a thicker hyaluronic acid…
Rhinoplasty 6 months ago & it left a dent in my nostril – will it heal?
Dent in nostril
Nov 1, 2022
Hello Cute7275! Dr. Walter Joseph here from Beverly Hills, CA. I hope you’re well. It appears that you likely had an open rhinoplasty, where an incision was made across the columella at the base of your nose. If there is any sort of step-off at the closure between the skin edges, a “notch” or “dent” can occur. Sometimes, these scars can remodel and any irregularities can improve/resolve over the course of 1 year, however, if there is still an indentation at the 12 month point, I would…
Rhinoplasty recovery – bromelain/arnica & red light therapy?
Recovery after Rhinoplasty
Nov 1, 2022
Hi Malo10! Dr. Walter Joseph here from Beverly Hills, CA. I hope you’re well! For my patients, I typically recommend starting both Arnica and Bromelain 1 week prior to surgery. I then recommend that they continue the combination for at least 2 weeks post-op (a total of 3 weeks). As for red light therapy, you can actually begin red light therapy a day or 2 before your surgery, and then continue daily for as long as convenient. There is good data that red light therapy can decrease pain,…
How difficult is to correct alar groove/collapse?
Alar to tip transition
Oct 26, 2022
Hi Lipslikesugar! Dr. Walter Joseph here from Beverly Hills, CA. From what I can see in the photos, after your rhinoplasty, you were left with a very distinct demarcation between your ala and your tip. This can be fixed using cartilage grafts to smoothen that transition between your ala and your tip. By securing cartilage grafts from your tip complex and having those grafts articulate with your lower lateral cartilages and then having those same grafts extend laterally into the alar rims, it…
Can I restore my damaged nose to a normal and natural, in my opinion, state?
Revision septorhinoplasty
Oct 26, 2022
Hi Morgiana! I think it is very realistic to improve the appearance of your nose to a more “natural” state that is proportioned and balanced to your face a bit better. This would likely require an open approach (incision across the columella) and cartilage grafting. Depending on how much cartilage your previous surgeon took from your septum at the time of your initial surgery, you may need ADDITIONAL cartilage (either from a cadaver or from your own rib).
