Is it Possible to Figure out the "Perfect" Nose and Lip Size for my Face?

i don't like my nose and lips, i want surgery but i don't know what shape to get or how far i should plump them, do i have to find out what shape, size i want by myself or can my surgeon tell me what type of nose, lips would look best on me? can a surgeon show me how i would look after my surgery? also i heard that theres a computer program that can determine the "perfect" facial features for your face using measurements, is that true, is that the program surgeons use?

The "Perfect" Nose and Lip Size for a Woman's Face

Hi, Leonardo da Vinci described the "golden proportions" hundreds of years ago in Italy.  The "Phi" ratio of 1:1.68 is an approximate proportion used by excellent facial plastic surgeons to create natural beautiful lips, noses, and faces.  It certainly can be worked out on a computer, but the computer can't operate on you.  It is important for you to choose a facial plastic surgeon who is able to create those "average" proportions by... more

Determining the right size nose and lips for your face

There is virtual cosmetic surgery software that is embedded in our web site at seattlefacial.com. You can upload a picture of yourself and perform your own cosmetic photo imaging. Take these photos to your surgeon for a consultation and ask whether or not those results are obtainable.

Perfect nose and lips

Is there a perfect nose and lip?

There is no such thing as a perfect nose and lip. A computer program my son does can make a pretty nose and lip---but he knows nothing about surgery. Beware of computer images! Have a consultation with an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon and bring pictures of noses and lips you like. He can tell you if these would look good on YOUR FACE and if they are possible to do.
