How would I describe this rhinoplasty to a surgon…

So essentially, I have a pretty bad nasofrontal angle, so I wanna keep my radix where it is. And I don’t want to donate any cartilage to the area. Or have it look different at all, My goal is to donate cartilage to the bridge and increase projection in the nose tip along with the whole noses length which is how much is projects, but if I donate cartilage to the bridge, would that change my nasal frontal angle?

You don't donate cartilage, you mean augmenting the radix/tip using cartilage grafts or implants. Your main issue is low dorsal projection, soft dorsal definition, slightly underprojected tip, and a limited forward nasal length relative to the chin and lips.

Ask for something like this:
I want an augmentation rhinoplasty focused on increasing dorsal and tip projection while preserving my current radix height and nasofrontal angle. I do not want a higher starting point to the nose. I want the nose to project more forward and appear longer structurally, primarily through dorsal augmentation below the radix and increased tip projection/rotation control



Additional info for you:

Radix = starting point between eyes...

Additional info for you:

Radix = starting point between eyes
Nasofrontal angle = forehead-to-nose transition
Dorsum = bridge
Tip projection = how far tip extends outward
Nasal length = radix to tip distance visually

If cartilage is added to your bridge, it can change the nasofrontal angle. But that depends where augmentation begins.

If grafting starts high near the radix, then the Radix height increases. nasofrontal angle becomes more acute/sharper. Your nose can appear “stronger” but also more artificial.

If augmentation begins lower on the dorsum, your bridge projects more. Radix preserved. Nasofrontal angle changes minimally

So what you want is likely: radix preservation, low radix augmentation or no radix augmentation, dorsal augmentation beginning below radix, tip grafting/projection support

Also mention how you do not want a high radix or a ski-slope profile.
