I feel like sometimes my nose is too big (sticks out too far from my face in relation to my chin and lips) but it's difficult for me to tell depending on how I take photos and the lighting. My problem is I have a couple of little side bumps on my nose (from glasses--see photo) that looks bad in certain lighting--or makes my nose look larger than in is. Thanks, Angela

Answer: Is my nose too big for my face (in relation to chin and lip line)? I agree with you that your nose appears over projected (sticks out too far from the cheeks). You also have a small and delicate chin which tends to make the nose look even more out of balance. You're a good candidate for rhinoplasty but your surgeon should also at least discuss the option of a chin implant to further balance your profile. This is not something you need to do but it will likely provide the optimal result for you. I hope this information is helpful for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Your assessment is correct: your nose sticks out strongly from your face The photos that you submitted were a little tiny, but I expanded one of them and made a proposed computer morph for you: see the Web reference link.In the modification, I brought the tip of your nose back closer to your face, elevated the tip, and reduced the height of the bridge of your nose to match the new position of the tip. See if you think it fits with your idea of an attractive nose for yourself.You should understand that work on the nose such as the changes I illustrated involve very advanced techniques that most plastic surgeons cannot handle. You need to see before and after photos of a surgeon's work in order to determine whether he is good enough for you. You need to see that he has been able to do for others, what you want for yourself.

Answer: Rhinoplasty What you want done is completely up to you.I say a Rhinoplasty which typically starts at $5,500 depending on the area you live. To make sure you get the best possible result, the surgeon should perform a detailed exam of the nose and provide a realistic goal that you and your surgeon agree upon. Rhinoplasty are permanent, but with age facial features do change. Find a surgeon and go for a consult, I think you would be very happy after the surgery
