Since I have been a young girl I have been bullied for having extremely close set eyes and a very long nose. When i say long I do not mean in a way which can be fixed with a rhinoplasty, but anteriorly long. It would not bother me so much as I am not a vain person if not for the fact that I cannot go a week without somebody saying something mean to me about it and I have even had people whispering wondering whats wrong with me. Are there any solutions to this problem?

Solution for close set eyes and long nose

There is nothing that can be done for narrow set eyes. A rhinoplasty can be done to decrease the projection of the nose and the length of the nose can be shortened through the rhinoplasty procedure. Look for a surgeon who has performed thousands of rhinoplasty procedures who is to understand all of the nuances with your nose.

Rhinoplasty for the long nose.

Rhinoplasty can shorten a long nose and make it more in balance with your face. It can make the eyes appear wider if you have a bump on your nose which can be removed. This may help give you confidence, but you might discuss this with a psychologist as well, before proceeding. You can always do surgery later.

Sorry but there is no way to answer your question without a photo and possibly a face to face examination.
