Prominent Nose/Pointy Nose with Delicate Facial Features; Rhinoplasty Possible?

By SargentsMadameX on 04 Apr 2012

My nose looks almost exactly like the portrait of Madame X by John Singer Sargent (which you can find on Google). I look almost exactly like her (but with a slightly bigger chin and bigger eyes). Many people tell me this, and they say they love my nose because it has so much character. But I've always hated how pointy and dramatic it is. Can surgery correct this kind of nose? It's so prominent with the slightest bump; that I'm not sure that reducing the end or correcting the bump would do much.

I looked it up. Very dramatic, you are right.

Here's a link in case anyone else is curious.

You're going to need to be examined by a rhinoplasty specialist to determine if your nose can be changed. I'm suspecting it can, but make sure you go with a board certified surgeon who does lots and lots and lots of noses.
