I've always hated my nose and really want a smaller nose. I have the worst side profile, my nose also looks bigger at different angles, does my big nose stand out cause it's just naturally huge or is my chin also a problem that causes my nose to look bigger? When I talk, my throat puffs out and my chin sags (ptosis?) and my nose tip moves down & looks humped. Hard to explain but plz see pics that kinda show it. How do I get a better side profile? The last pic is an example of when I talk

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photographs, you are a great candidate for rhinoplasty. Maneuvers for your surgery would include dorsal hump reduction, tip refinement, nasal tip deprojection, tip elevation, among other maneuvers. I don’t think you need a chin implant. With good surgical technique, you could have an outstanding result. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified rhinoplasty surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Would I benefit from a nose job, or is my chin the problem? The photographs demonstrate an overly projecting nose with a dorsal hump, and an under projecting chin. Consider a closed rhinoplasty procedure, in addition to a small chin implant for better facial balance and proportions. Choose your surgeon wisely based on extensive experience producing natural results, since rhinoplasty is the most difficult procedure to perform correctly in the entire field of cosmetic surgery. Digital computer imaging would also be helpful to see what you can be accomplished with both procedures upon your facial features
