One of the most common complaints we hear from clients coming into our office is that they don’t like the size or shape of their nose. And it makes sense. The nose is the center of the face, and when it is out of proportion with the rest of the facial features, people naturally feel self-conscious about it. Otherwise beautiful features may go unappreciated because the eye tends to always be drawn to the prominence of the nose. But when this is corrected, the effect on the overall appearance can be truly astounding. While noses come in all shapes and sizes, having a bulbous nose seems to be a special source of insecurity for people. If this is the case for you, a rhinoplasty to reduce and reshape your bulbous nose can help you feel worlds more confident and attractive.
What is a bulbous nose?
A bulbous nose is a nose which has an enlarged or ill-defined tip. The problem with the appearance often is an imbalance between the upper and lower halves of the nose. The eye usually likes a straight and uninterrupted gently-curving line between the head of the eyebrow and the nasal tip. When the nasal tip is too wide in relation to the nasal bridge, disproportion and imbalance occurs -- and the gently-curved line is interrupted.
The cause of a bulbous nasal tip can be either enlarged or ill-defined cartilages within the tip, or thick skin in the tip itself. In either case, both anatomical causes contribute to lack of definition in the nasal tip. It is very important to diagnose the cause or causes of an amorphous nasal tip, as a targeted surgical treatment is required in order to correct the problem.
The disproportionate nature of a bulbous nose can be exaggerated by other facial features -- having a lower and deeper browline, for example. Bulbous noses are more common in men than women, and are caused mostly by simple genetics, or in some cases, untreated rosacea. Though the feature has long been associated with alcoholism, recent evidence has disproved this claim, and those with bulbous noses may therefore feel that they live with an unfair social stigma. Fortunately, a bulbous nose can be fixed with rhinoplasty surgery, which can make a huge difference in a patient’s self-esteem and quality of life.
What is bulbous nose rhinoplasty?
A bulbous nose rhinoplasty (commonly called a “nose job’) is a type of cosmetic surgery where the nose is reduced and reshaped to conform more evenly with the rest of the facial features. During a bulbous nose rhinoplasty, a surgeon may use several different techniques to modify the nose. Often, excess cartilage can be reduced or modified in order to create more definition in the nasal infrastructure. Special suturing techniques can be employed to create a sharper and more defined tip. If the cause of the wide and ill-defined tip is the nasal skin, the skin can be treated with dermabrasion or a laser peel to shrink the skin cover and make the tip narrower. Careful diagnosis is necessary to allow an individualized surgical solution for this problem.
Selecting the right surgeon for a bulbous nose rhinoplasty is very important, because results should look beautiful, but natural. Be sure to ask for before-and-after photos from procedures your prospective surgeon has done, so you can assess their work on comparable patients.
What is different about bulbous nose tip rhinoplasty?
A bulbous nose rhinoplasty is a bit different than other types of “nose jobs” because the surgeon must not only reshape the nose, he or she may also need to remove excess skin or treat the skin with skin resurfacing to diminish the contribution of the skin to the nasal imbalance. A bulbous nose rhinoplasty may be performed with either an open or a closed approach. In an open procedure, an incision is made across the strip of skin that divides the nostrils, giving the surgeon increased accessibility to problem areas that need to be worked on. In a closed procedure, incisions are made only on the inside of the nostrils, leaving no visible scars. During your initial consultation, your surgeon will advise you about which method is best for your case.

I'm 4 weeks post-open rhinoplasty { "true thick skin" } & this rings true for me. When the cast came off, my nose looked HUGE. It was a discoloured potato for the first few days, but with the help of tape, the swelling dramatically subsided within the week. Now 4 weeks in, it certainly feels & looks like 90% of the swelling has subsided. I know this still isn't the end result, but I am already getting a very good idea of how it's going to look, & my nose feels much, much stronger. If you have thick skin, you definitely want to tape & keep the tape on for as long as you can. Take daily walks,. Gently exfoliate. Sleep slightly upright.
