I would like to make my nose smaller overall
By rain1234 on 02 Apr 2011
I haven't considered plastic surgery until recently, when I was going through my photos and I realized my nose is a bit big for my other facial features. especially compared to my small tiny lips. my nose is something i consider as one of my good characteristics because it's so unique -- but, i just want it smaller overall width-wise (from the bridge all the way to the alar base.) i do have a very small bump, but i don't mind it that much from the side -- it's just that the bump makes the middle of my bridge from the frontal view not very pretty. also my tip from the side can be lifted up a little bit. what would be the approximate cost for such procedure and what else would you recommend based on my picture?
Thanks for posting to RealSelf and included a photo. It's a little hard to judge your nose without seeing the rest of your face for context. But I can understand you might not want to give your identity away. Rhinoplasty is a very personal decision. From what I've seen, the people who are happiest with a nose job are those who were looking for improvement, and not perfection. You might want to go to a couple consults with plastic surgeons and get their input, or, if you can provide a better quality photo, post this in our Doctor Q&A community to get their guidance.
