Can Botox Shrink/Refine my Nose?

Hi RyeRinger in New York City -

No, Botox will not change the shap of the nasal tip or base of the nose.

Sincerely,

Tom Kaniff

If you tried to change the shape of the nose, you might get the result you want, but even if treated by an expert who truly knows the facial anatomy very well, diffusion to adjacent areas can have the Botox affect unwanted muscles and this could lead to unwanted asymmetry of the face, especially around the mouth. You could look as if you had a stroke.  It might be hard to smile, pronounce certain letters, use a straw, brush your teeth, etc.

Bunny lines and softening of the nasal tip and subtle changes in the nasal highlights-these generally do not fit the description of refining a nose.  Non surgically, there is much more power in the fillers.  Beyond this, it is hard to do better than a properly executed rhinoplasty.  Just make sure you effectively communicate to your potential surgeon what you are looking for.
