What's the Problem when One's Side Profile is Fine, but Looks Flat from the Front in Some Lightings?

April 19, 2013
Asked By:ForrestDump

My nose bridge is quite high up for an Asian nose, and the tip is fine (hence the OK profile view), but the structure on either side makes it seem flat from the front in bad lighting. How I can best describe it is: If a cross section my nose was taken at the middle, the base of the triangle would be wider than I wanted, but the the height of the triangle is fine. The reason I described is because I have no photos to show you at the moment. Any information would be helpful.
