Rhinoplasty for wide nose only when smiling? (Photo)

Question

I had double jaw surgery 1.5 years ago to correct an 11mm overbite and excess gummy smile, I’m really happy with the result however it has changed the shape of my nose which I was happy with before, it only changes dramatically when I smile, I am happy with my nose at rest. Is there a procedure that can limit to wideness when I smile? Thank you

Hello! Thank you for your question. As far as I can see from your photos your nasolabial angle is very low this thing can be the reason of the droopy tip when you smile. For get rid of this image and wideness in your nostrils I recommend you rhinoplasty surgery. Best Regards!

Hi , rhinoplasty can help enhance nasal profile including tip and alar correction if needed. It is better for you to consult with a facial plastic surgeon who can examine you and discuss the surgical procedure and the post op recovery process.
