I have a consultation today with a doctor. I want a very subtle rhinoplasty for my dorsal hump. But I am so scared of people noticing, my nose looking “sculpted” or it turning out too upturned, etc. I am seriously terrified because it is an irreversible surgery. I am also scared of people noticing which is the last thing I want. Do people usually notice or am I just overthinking this way too much? Is it possible to do a natural looking rhinoplasty on my nose without looking totally different?

Answer: Natural rhinoplasty results The best thing you can do is discuss your concerns with your surgeon. Have you carefully examined his before and after photos? Hopefully you have not seen any results that concern you in terms of too dramatic a change. Make sure you know what techniques will be used on your nose. At the end of the day, the surgeon's artistic sense comes in to play. Make sure you like his part work. Good luck!

Answer: Subtle Rhinoplasty Hello and thank you for your inquiry. Your concern about wanting a subtle rhinoplasty is a popular one that you should emphasize with the plastic surgeon of choice. Keep in mind that a subtle result is very obtainable but that your close friends and family, even your acquaintances may notice. The removal of your dorsal hump is noticeable and troublesome to you which is why you want to undergo a rhinoplasty and the result will be impactful enough that you notice but subtle enough that it will not look overdone. The nose being the forefront of your face, people may take notice, especially when looking at your profile. However, this should not scare you. Ask your board certified plastic surgeon many questions and request to see his work on previous patients. Before and after pictures of subtle changes can be helpful and ask if he or she can take a 3D image of yourself with the new nose. Go into this with an open mind and do your research well on what to expect post-op. Once the swelling goes down, within a few months, you will not pay heed to anyones thoughts and or curiosity. What is important is that you feel great with the decision you made. In hopes this has helped answer your question Best Regards.
