Question:
I have a small, turned-up, pixie-like nose. Can this be fixed with rhinoplasty and how? What sort of improvement can I expect?
Answer:
It is possible that a turned up nose can be fixed with rhinoplasty. If the appearance is because of a previous rhinoplasty it can be very difficult however. Usually and primary cases significant improvement can be obtained however it is somewhat limited based upon the degree that the skin will move. An examination would be necessary to determine what sort of improvement can be obtained in each individual case.
