Bulbous Nose Tip

What is a bulbous nose tip or rounded nose tip and what causes it?

Toronto bulbous nose tip patients suffer from a very common nose and nasal-facial cosmetic concern, specifically, a very round or bulbous nasal tip. The cause of a bulbous nasal tip or rounded tip of the nose is usually developmental and hereditary. During childhood and adolescence, growth of the nose cartilages at the tip of the nose overgrow, leading to an excessively rounded and bulbous appearance to the tip the nose and a distortion of ideal nasal-facial aesthetics. Most Toronto bulbous tip patients find that the excessive roundness of the nose distracts from optimal nasal-facial aesthetics, especially on front view pictures and can be distracting to both the patient and to viewers.

Can I treat my bulbous nasal tip? And if so, how is that performed?

Toronto bulbous nasal tip patients can be treated by Dr. Stephen Mulholland, Toronto cosmetic plastic surgeon, and the SpaMedica® Toronto Cosmetic Plastic Surgery Centre by a variety of techniques and procedures. One of the simplest and least invasive procedures is a procedure pioneered and developed by Dr. Stephen Mulholland, called the injection rhinoplasty, or the five minute nose job. During this procedure Dr. Mulholland uses a safe, long lasting injectable gel filler, such as Restylane, Perlane, Juvederm, Teosyal and Voluma to inject into the tip and bridge of the nose to create a more refined, feminine appearance to the nose and nasal-facial aesthetics. Alternatively, many Toronto bulbous tip patients present for cosmetic rhinoplasty or nose job surgery.

During a bulbous nose tip surgery, or nose job surgery, Dr. Mulholland surgically refines and sculpts the cartilages that form the shape of the tip of the nose, to create a more aquiline, refined and attractive appearance. The Cosmetic Rhinoplasty for the Bulbous Nasal Tip can be performed under local anesthesia or IV sedation. Down time, pain and recovery are minimal and the results are lifelong and can usually result in a significant improvement and refinement in the aesthetic appearance of the tip of the nose. To help patients better understand how this procedure is performed and what kind of general appearance they can expect to achieve following treatment of their bulbous nose tip surgery Dr. Mulholland uses a special computer imaging system that allows the patient to view the nose tip changes that will likely occur.

SpaMedica® Toronto Cosmetic Plastic Surgery Centre and Dr. Stephen Mulholland, Toronto cosmetic plastic surgeon have been serving Toronto cosmetic rhinoplasty patients and Toronto bulbous nasal tip patients since 1997 and are one of Toronto’s and Canada’s oldest, most recognized and reputable cosmetic plastic surgeons and centres.
