Sharpening a bulbous nose tip and shortening a nose that extends out from the face a little too far are two very reasonable outcomes that can be achieved with rhinoplasty surgery. Known as tip refinement and deprojection, these techniques are difficult to execute correctly without access to the nose cartilages around the tip.

Board Certified facial plastic surgeon and rhinoplasty specialist Dr. Buonassisi is an expert in the open rhinoplasty approach, which is the ideal approach for safely making changes to the nose as in tip refinement or deprojection.
