Tip plasty is a type of rhinoplasty that can improve the shape of your nose by correcting your nose tip. For instance, those with a bulbous nose tip can achieve a sharper and slimmer-looking nose. All in all, tip plasty is a surgical procedure that helps you achieve a better looking nasal tip. Creating a symmetric nasal tip with the right projection, rotation and proportion to other parts of the nose is what this procedure is meant to achieve.
