Rhinoplasty question - how much does nose shrink?

Rhinoplasty: Rhinoplasty is designed to produce a nose which is appropriate for your face. Discuss with your facial plastic or plastic surgeon for more details.

Shrinking tip: Many people want a smaller tip after rhinoplasty. The best way to get an accurate idea of how much is possible for you is to see a surgeon who can do photo-imaging. The amount of reduction varies from person to person. The thicker your skin, for example, the less reduction is possible. Your surgeon should be able to answer this question for you.

Rhinoplasty surgery: Dear littlemay1, the nose shrinkage depends on how large the nose is before surgery. This can best be answered in a consultation. If you have a very large nose, there is a limit on how small it can be. We also have to make sure you can breathe properly after the procedure. Best, nima shemirani.

Depends: As we do not usually take skin out in a rhinoplasty there is a limit to how small the nose can be made. See a rhinoplasty surgeon for an opinion.

Depends: It all depends on what surgical maneuvers are utilized by your rhinoplasty surgeon. Every nose is different and tolerates changes differently. Talk to your surgeon about your specific expectations and get a personalized opinion.
