Although your photos are limited, I see that there is irregular contour of your tip cartilages. You have deficient cartilage at the tip. In addition, the soft triangle of your nose, the area just lateral to the tip, appears to be contracted. To gain better contour of your tip and to support your thin skin, I recommend Conchal Cartilage Graft in combination with soft tissue augmentation. Soft Tissue augmentation will act as a padding between the skin and the cartilage graft. The Dermal Fat graft or Alloderm may be used to augment the soft tissue. To correct the soft triangle constriction, Dermal-Conchal Cartilage graft inside the nose should be considered. Dermal-Conchal graft is where the ear cartilage is taken along with the overlying skin as a one piece. Be sure to consult with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. Explanation of the nasal anatomy will help you understand the above. The more information you gain, the more satisfied you will be. Best Wishes!
Alloderm may be used to increase the projection of Reconstructed Nipples as part of Breast Reconstruction. Alloderm is processed from the skin of the Organ Donors. Since Organ Donation is a gift, the Lifecell company, the makers of Alloderm, does not endorse the use of Alloderm for cosmetic procedures. Even so, Alloderm is used in many reconstructive and cosmetic procedures. However, I am not yet aware of using Alloderm to increase the projection of a normal nipple. We know from past use of Alloderm in Lip Augmentation, that the effect is not permanent and in many were short lived. As a result, we rarely use it now and has been replaced by Dermal Fillers. Dermal Fillers may be an option for you. I hope this was helpful. Consult with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for more information and for other options. Best Wishes!
The photos of your eye/eyelid are necessary to answer your questions fully. Like you, most people have eye and eyelid shape that are similar but not identical. When epicanthal folds are released, usually they are fully released. If the folds are not fully corrected, then traction lines may form at the uncorrected portion. However, if one eyelid epicanthal fold is minimal, then the other eyelid epicanthal release may be shaped to create better symmetry. So yes, it is possible. It is important to have a goal that is to create balance and symmetry, not identical shape. Be sure to consult a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. Best Wishes!
