Radiesse for nose reshaping

Fillers work best on noses that have a hump on profile and can fill in the depression above the bump thereby making the profile more of a straight line. For a wide nose, I can't imagine that any filler would give it a more narrow appearance. The photo you show does not reveal a very wide nose but pictures can be deceiving and if it bothers you terribly, then you would be best suited to see a plastic surgeon in consultation to discuss a rhinoplasty. Good luck.

Not a good nose for Radiesse or any filler.

You may have a partial improvement that is temporary. You may want to consider rhinopasty for a more effective and prmanent correction. Hope this helps. sek

Rhinoplasty and Radiesse

You are not a candidate for nonsurgical rhinoplasty. If you want to improve the appearance of your nose, then I would recommend to you that you see a plastic surgeon to discuss a surgical rhinoplasty with you. Good luck.

Rhinoplasty will help a long nose with polly beak deformity

Minii, You are wasting you time and money. If Radiesse is placed on your nose it will INCREASE the height of the nose which already in my opinion is too high. From this lateral-oblique view, you appear to have - a overly long nose - a high dorsum, possibly with a hump (cannot see on this view) - an amorphous bulbous nasal tip where the Right (lower lateral) tip cartilage appears to be protruding in front of the left - plunging nasal tip which MAY plunge more with smiling - probable showing... more
