Rhinoplasty

It sounds like what is bothering you is the tip and your feeling that making it smaller will make you look more feminine. The tip size is not the major factor for differentiating between male and female noses. What makes a nose feminine is a concave contour of the bridge margins on the sides and a larger angle between the tip and upper lip. Both of those aspects can controlled in surgery to make the tip smaller and retain a masculine nose after surgery. My response to your... more
