Are These Results For My Nose Realistic? (photo)

I Really Dislike My Current Nose, I have photo shopped my Ideal nose on the image on the right. Are My Results too Drastic? Or are they Attainable? What Procedures would have to be done? Lastly what is the minimum age for teen male rhinoplasty With and Without parental consent? ( I do have parental Consent, Just curious)

The overall Reduction in the width of the bridge is certainly obtainable in the photo-shopped results. The width of the Nostrils is close to being attainable. The width of the tip is unobtainable and the downward rotation of the tip that to that degree is unobtainable

Rhinoplasty results

Your picture of what you want your nose to look like is definitely in the right track, but your actual result may not look precisely like that. But your nose can certainly be improved by refining the tip and narrowing your nostrils. It may not be possible to narrow your nose quite as much as you show in the photos.

Is this realistic?

It does appear realistic with the exception of the tip width. Depending on how thick your skin is you may not be able to achieve that amount of narrowing. You should be able to get the nostril width reduction. You are also showing adding some length and possible height.

Hey, that's some nice Photoshop... you're going to put me out of work! It looks like you've narrowed the nostrils (alar base resection), augmented the dorsum (dorsal graft), and diminished tip size. A profile view would help, but the changes you have simulated are all routine elements of rhinoplasty procedure for your type of nose. Because nasal growth in the male is not complete until age 18 or thereabouts, I would wait until at least that age. Your results are... more
