What type of Rhinoplasty would I benefit from? I dislike my nostrils and how my nose looks like an arrow when I smile. (photos)

 Rhinoplasty's do not result in the Michael Jackson look unless you go to a surgeon who is poorly trained. I have done rhinoplasty as have many other surgeons on the site without any results remotely looking like that. Choose a surgeon who is very experienced and does natural looking noses and you will have an excellent result.

The areas that you described and
would like improved can be addressed with a subtle natural appearing
rhinoplasty performed by an expert artistic plastic surgeon with extensive
rhinoplasty experience. It can be achieved with either an open or closed technique.

Keep in mind, that following the
advice from a surgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you
what to do based on limited 2 dimensional photos without examining you, physically
feeling the tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical
history, and discussing the pros and cons of the proposed operative procedure
with you and your parents may not be in your best interest. I would suggest you
find a plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and
ideally a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS)
or facial plastic surgeon (otolaryngologist) that you trust and are comfortable
with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person. The
length of the procedure, cost, and the specific operative steps to achieve an
ideal cosmetic result vary from patient to patient and would depend on the
findings at your consultation examination.

As others will note, one cannot give a definitive opinion without seeing you in person.  As you may note, given the lens characteristics of most phone and home cameras your nose will look bigger in such pictures.Nevertheless, a few words.  Your nose appears that it may be overprojected, long, somewhat droopy, and crooked.  After reading this you may be thinking "yikes", but those are not unusual features in those seeking rhinoplasty opinions.So what do you do:Seek a qualified opinion and find someone you trust and can communicate with.What "kind" of rhinoplasty will depend on what the goals are, and the skill set of the surgeon.  Although I have been able to produce good results operating on people with such characteristics via an endonasal technique, it is sometimes necessary to do an "open' technique to accomplish the results.  My point is don't get hung up with "open" vs "closed".  What you want to do is establish the realistic goals with a surgeon, maybe get a preview on an imager and then trust your surgeon can accomplish those goals for you.Good luck, there are many qualified people who would be happy to see youFred G.
