Happiness after rhinoplasty

The most important thing for you to remember is that whoever does your surgery should give you a nose that fits your face.  One must take into consideration facial characteristics as well as other factors - height, breathing problems, etc.  I would have to see a full set of photos before I could make any recommendations but why not see one or two plastic surgeons in your area.  There are quite a few who do very good nasal surgery.  Good luck

Rhinoplasty and Patient Satisfaction

A good plastic surgeon will first ask:  "What don't you like about your nose" - this will help him determine what will make you happier regarding your nose.  You basically sound unhappy with the size of your nose.  It would be helpful to have more than one view of your nose in order to assess it's relative length, size and width compare to the rest of your face...remember a beautiful nose is a matter of proportions, facial angles and the size of the tip, base more
