Ever since I was a little girl, I have always disliked my nose and I have begun to consider rhinoplasty. But I don't know what kind of procedure I would go in for,and I don't know if it would be extensive. If possible for down time to be relatively short but I know this may not be the case. I've always wanted thinner nostrils, pointier, and less upturned. Would an injection in the tip fix the nostril issue, or would I need large procedure? And aesthetically speaking would this balance my face?
Answer: How to fix large nostrils and a flat nose The rhinoplasty procedure can narrow wide nostrils with an alar-plasty. This involves removal of a wedge of skin at the base of the nostril. Osteotomies of the nasal bones will narrow the bridge line. A cartilage graft added to the top of the bridge will increase the height. Synthetic, Silastic implants are used in some cases where there is not enough cartilage available.

Answer: How would I fix large nostrils and a flat nose? The areas that concern you can be realistically improved. Keep in mind that following advice from a surgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you exactly what to do based on two dimensional photos without examining you, physically feeling your tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical history and discussing the pros and cons of the operative procedure would not be in your best surgery. Natural appearing results need to be individualized and what is appropriate for one patient is not necessarily the best for someone else. I would suggest that you find a surgeon certified by the American Board of American Plastic Surgery and one who is ideally a member of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person. Robert Singer, M.D., FACS La Jolla,California

Answer: How would I fix large nostrils and a flat nose? Based on your photo- you appear to be a very good candidate for rhinoplasty. Fundamentally, to achieve your goals- you will need standard cosmetic rhinoplasty techniques. This includes: refinement of your tip, narrowing of the bones, improvement of your profile and narrowing of your nostrils. You may also need a tip graft in order to give your tip slightly more elegant look. I've done this many times- in the right hands you should achieve your goals.

Answer: Ethnic nose Do not even think about injecting ANY fillers in your nose... at your own risk!About your case, the bridge seems not bad and the problems are centered on the lower third of the nose, needing:-nostril reduction (done with a wedge excision at the base of them)-support grafts made of cartilage taken from ears or nasal septum, to rebuild the lower third and enleghten your nose and give the projection desired-tip graft to reshape it to more occidental style-maybe tongue in groove or other variations are applicable
