Nose Re-Surgery

Revision surgery for thin skin, nasal tip show-through, and a pointed nasal tip

I naturally have a low, small nose. My skin is also thin, so it’s an extreme case. My first surgery was with an L-shaped silicone implant. A step-off developed at the nasal tip, so I had revision surgery with donated costal cartilage, ear cartilage, and AlloDerm, and I lived fine for a while. But after about 10 years, the nasal tip started showing through again and became bumpy. It got worse after my baby head-butted me, and the bumpiness also feels like the nasal tip cartilage has separated. I’m looking into a third surgery, but the more I look, the harder it gets. My wannabe nose is something plump and natural, like So Yoo-jin’s nose? Now that I’ve given birth and gotten older, more than having a pretty nose itself, I need something natural and comfortable. I also went for consultations about complete removal, but because my nose is originally very low, many doctors didn’t recommend it. I didn’t have inflammation, but my skin is so thin that it seems like a reconstructive-level case, so I narrowed it down like this. What do you think?
