For starters, I completely hate how my nose sits on my face. I feel its short, too bulbous, I have little to no bridge definition, my nostrils are large and upturned. I've often been called Miss Piggy. Especially seeing that I have chubby cheeks. When I smile it becomes very wide. From my side profile my nose is the largest thing on my face. I'm hoping to achieve a drastic change.. not that I wish to look less AA, but that my nose looks more defined. I'm just tired of being compared to an animal.

Answer: Rhinoplasty A rhinoplasty to refine your tip so it is less bulbous would be a good start. Carilage grafting to give you more dorsal and tip projection as well as columellar (the middle part) projection would also be indicated. Finally, narrowing the dorsal bridge base by breaking the bone there and narrowing the alar (nostril) base would be also be indicated. Best wishes, Dr. T.

Answer: There Are Good Rhinoplasty Options Available You should be able to get a nice result from a rhinoplasty. Narrowing both the base of your nose as well as the tip, giving some more definition to the tip, and strengthening the bridge of the nose would all produce a drastic yet natural result. Part of the difficulty of your specific procedure is that you appear to have thick skin and likely somewhat soft cartilage. It is likely that you would need some additional cartilage to help give you the results you desire. Make an appointment to see an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon in your area who has had experience with noses that looks similar to yours. Don't be discouraged, you will likely be very happy with the result. Good luck.
