My nose is very broad, I want it to get thin - is it possible without surgery?

Question

We have not found injectable fillers helpful for narrowing a wide nose on front view. You may consider consulting several rhinoplasty specialists so you could see what might be best for you.Wishing you well.Dr. Joseph

Although many times, we can use dermal fillers to "build" up the bridge of the nose, increase tip projection, raise a drooping tip, or fill in contour irregularities, usually those with a very broad nose would be better candidates for a traditional rhinoplasty.  I would recommend consulting with a Board-Certified plastic surgeon who feels comfortable with nonsurgical AND surgical rhinoplasty.  They will be able to present all options and choose the one that will suit you best.  Good luck!

Non surgical procedures such as fillers like Radiesse are very helpful to improve the shape and contour of your nose, but can be temporary, and are only suitable for certain cases. You may be able to fill the radix of the nose and reduce the appearance of the hump. The downside to this is that it may make your nose appear longer.  Surgical rhinoplasty is often the best solution for a more permant solution. Without a photograph, it is difficult for me to give you a recommendation for the best procedure for you, but if you are looking for a slimmer nose you will probably need a functional rhinoplasty. A consultation is always necessary to give you definitive recommendations on how to improve the contour of your nose.
