I Want my Nose Shaped Without General Anaesthetic. What is Conscious Sedation with Noseplasty?
Conscious Sedation vs. General Anaesthesia with Noseplasty (rhinoplasty)
May 3, 2013

The debate of whether general anaesthesia or conscious sedation is more appropriate for rhinoplasty essentially hinges on the training and experience of the surgeon and the experience and training of the specialist anaesthetist administering the conscious sedation medication. I emphasise that this is important and you must select your surgeon and he will advise you which technique he is comfortable with.
I totally disagree that it is not possible to perform a total block of…

It takes several months (up to at least one year) before a rhinoplasty procedure has healed properly. Distortion and displacement of the nose cartilages can occur quite easily in the first few months after surgery. So the answer is yes.

It is also difficult to make any comment on the shape of your nose without photographs of your nose before the surgery. However from the photographs it seems that you have a bulbous, trapezoidal shaped tip with round shaped nostrils. I can’t detect any surgical incisions around the tip of your nose so I assume that you had a ‘closed’ rhinoplasty. In my opinion I think an ‘open’ rhinoplasty is…

You can certainly have your nose bridge lowered, but the tip of the nose also needs to be lowered at the same time otherwise you will result with a ‘polly beak’ nose. Typical Asian noses have a low nose tip with some flaring of the nostrils. To lower the tip of your nose will require surgery to your tip cartilages.
Why Does my Front View Look Wider Than my Before?

The photographs you submitted are not of good quality for analysis of your nose. However it appears that the upper part of your nose has been narrowed-this is performed by narrowing the bony bridge of your nose; whereas the base of your nose has not been narrowed. This can result in the illusion that your nose is now wider. It is also possible that you still have some swelling of the tip of your nose which causes it to look wider. In any case it’s really too early to make a judgement…
