Question

I would like to improve the shape of my nose and make my close-set eyes appear wider-set. I have quite a high bridge and the tip of my nose is quite bulbous. Would correcting these things help with the close-set eyes do you think?

Vincent N. Zubowicz, MD · Answer

It's possible that the eyes might look further apart after narrowing the nose. Video imaging is a good way to give you some idea what to expect from this change.

Vartan Mardirossian, MD · Answer

THe distance between the medial ends of your eyes should equal the distance beteen the sides of your nasal tip. With that in mind some optical illusion may be possible after a rhinoplasty but please do not undergo this procedure just fir the sake of this result as it may not happen at all.

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

Those maneuvers may give that illusion.   I think that bridge and tip refinement would be reasonable.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA
