Question

I am considering having a tertiary rhinoplasty, I require the nose to be straightened, defined and correct breathing functionality of one nostril.

I wondered if you can resolve the breathing functionality as well as cosmetic? I have sebaceous skin, so I believe there is a limitation on how much you can define the nose?

Answer

I would be happy to see you in consultation and assess the current concerns and the degree of change you would like to achieve.

It is possible to improve the nasal airway at the time of cosmetic rhinoplasty interventions, and produce a more defined appearance of the nasal tip, even in the context of the thicker soft tissues, but with more limited range.
