Rhinoplasty expectations. Possible or not? (photos)

Question

I am going to have a rhinoplasty in two weeks. I want to have small nostrills and a cute nose like megan fox or doutzen kroes. Some docs say that it is not possible while some say that may be done with an open technique. I dont know who to believe. Are my expectations unreal and what look would be the best for me help me please..

Hello and thank you for your question.  The
best advice you can receive is from an in-person consultation.  I am having an issue fully viewing your nasal pictures which you posted.  You may be a candidate for a rhinoplasty.  This decision should
be based on a detailed discussion with equal input from both you
and your surgeon.   Make sure you specifically look
at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery
performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results.   The most
important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend
that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who
can evaluate you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.

hello thank you for your question and provided information as well..based on your photo, it is best to be evaluated in person by a certified plastic surgeon, because the angles shown are not indicative for an evaluation.

Expectations are best discussed in an evaluation. Your nose could be improved with rhinoplasty, which would give permanent improvements in symmetry and shape. You can bring the pictures that you think would be flattering to your face and these can be discussed.  It takes special interest and study to understand the facial aesthetics to create a nose that is harmonious with your other features. Take the time to find the right facial plastic surgeon and ask them to create digital images of the nose they propose for you and discuss the cost.

Philip J. Miller, MD, FACS · Answer

This is best answered with an in-person evaluation. I would recommend starting with a consultation with a board certified facial plastic surgeon that specializes in rhinoplasty surgery to discuss if rhinoplasty can address your concerns. 
I would recommend writing down the following questions before scheduling your consultation:
1. Are you unhappy with the tip of your nose? 
2. Do you feel that your nose is too wide? 
3. Do you want to make your nostrils smaller in appearance? 
4. Are you looking to decrease the general size of your nose?
I hope some of these questions will help you pinpoint what it is that you don't like about your nose.  Cost will vary due to various factors like anesthesia fees, facilities fees, etc. I wish you the best as you research your options when scheduling a rhinoplasty consultation.
Sincerely,

Rhinoplasty is always possible but not always desireable. Im sorry but i cannot see your nose properly in your pictures so it is difficult to comment.
In general terms it is never possible to exactly match the nose of another. It is the multitude of subtle differences that make each individual unique
