22, female, is it possible to narrow my nose so it's more than slightly changed in the front view? (Photos)

Hi It is better for you to consult with a facial plastic surgeon who can examine your nose and give you the best recommendations that might help you.

Hello! Thank you for your question.
As far as I can see from your photos your skin structure looks thick, but it does not prevent you from having surgery, the recovery period will take longer than normal skin, but your wishes can be realized with a single rhinoplasty operation.
It would be better face to face consultation.
Best Regards!

Based on the photos you provided, I agree that you are a good candidate for narrowing the tip and nostrils. One aspect that stands out is your columella (the skin between the nostrils), which appears slightly retracted where it meets your upper lip. When narrowing the tip and base of your nose, it's important to address this aspect to prevent a hooding appearance over the columella. This is a finer point that an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon would be aware of.

To answer your question about the extent to which your nose can be narrowed, I would note that the upper half of your nose has a good shape and a complementary width for your face. Therefore, the narrowing should ideally focus on the lower half of your nose, with a complementary refinement to the upper half as a reasonable expectation.

Thank you for your query. The bulbous tip and thickness of the nose that concerns you can be fixed with a rhinoplasty procedure. Inn fact, this is one of the commonest indications for a rhinoplasty in my practice. Please find an experienced board certified Plastic surgeon who can examine you and help you with all your concerns. All the best!

Based on your photos, I agree that you have a pleasing nasal profile appearance. On front of you, you appear to have a wide nasal tip and flaring nostrils. Rhinoplasty may be considered for achieving narrowing in the upper middle and lower thirds of your nose. Please consider meeting with several reputable rhinoplasty specialist who offer computer imaging. Thank you so much for your question. Sincerely, Dr. Joseph

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photograph, you may benefit from a tip refining rhinoplasty. Your surgeon can accomplish this by trimming, suturing, and reshaping the cartilage in your lower nose. Cartilage grafts may also be used to help improve tip refinement. With good surgical technique, you could have an outstanding result. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified rhinoplasty surgeon who can evaluate you in person.

Best wishes and good luck.

You have a broad nose with a bulbous nasal tip, thick skin, and acne. Thick skin can often mask the crucial surgical adjustments to the osseocartilaginous structure of your nose. A structural rhinoplasty is your ideal solution if you have a broad nose with poor projection and a bulbous tip. This procedure creates a robust cartilaginous framework that narrows the wide tip and stretches the skin to eliminate undesirable dead space in the tip and supra-tip areas. Additionally, osteotomies are essential to refine the nasal dorsum. Post-surgery, a course of isotretinoin will significantly reduce subdermal fat, leading to a beautifully balanced nose that enhances overall appearance. Embrace the opportunity to transform your look and boost your confidence!

Hello, I'm Dr. Oh-Young Joo, from Eight Plastic Surgery Clinic in Seoul, South Korea.
As you have mentioned the side view looks good since you have
adequate radix height and tip projection.
I assume that you have some concerns regarding the frontal view of your nose.
To improve your 'dorsal aesthetic line',
an osteotomy to narrow the upper half of the nose, and a weir-excision
to narrow the alar width could be possible
Thank You.
