My nostrils are huge and the tip of my nose looks like a ball. I feel unattractive at times because of this. I have yet to see anyone with a nose like mine except the early michael jackson. However I do not have a bump in it. The only problem is the size of my nostils and tip of my nose. What would fit properly to my face? And how much would it cost?
Answer: Reducing nostril size and refining the nasal tip
It is possible to reduce the size of your nostrils with an alar base reduction and refine the nasal tip with an open rhinoplasty. Use of computer imaging software allows us to give the patient an idea of the end result of surgery. It also serves as a goal to follow in the operating room. When performed properly by a highly skilled surgeon, an ethnic rhinoplasty with alar base reduction can yield a fantastic result while allowing the patient to maintain the distinguishing characteristics of their ethnicity. In general, the cost for this procedure ranges from $12,000-$15,000 depending on the individual circumstances of the patient. My junior assistant Dr. Yoo generally performs the surgery for $7,000-$10,000. Thank you, and I hope this helps answer your question.

Answer: Nostrils Excessively wide or flared nostrils can be reduced with a simple procedure called alar wedge resection, in which a crescent of skin is removed along the groove where your nostril meets your cheek. It's a standard procedure which can even be done under local anesthesia and takes less than an hour. The cost will vary mainly depending on what additional work is done on the nose at the same time.

Answer: Nostril Reduction Rhinoplasty
Although it would be easier to tell if you photo included more of your face, it is possible that the size of your nostrils is out of keeping with your nasal tip. Nostril reduction should solve the flaring problem and my guess based on this limited photo is that your tip may need to be projected and widened slightly. See a rhinoplasty specialist who will look at all your views and your entire face before recomending a definitive surgical plan.

Answer: Nose shaping for wide noses For more than 35 years I have been doing noses like yours to narrow the nostrils and refine the tip without creating an unnatural look. Make sure you see someone who does a lot of noses like yours. The cost is normally $7500-10,000.

Answer: Rhinoplasty for Wide Base and Tip
Unfortunately, the photo does not show your entire face, therefore, a true and accurate assessment cannot be made. However, looking at the lower aspect of your nose you appear to have a wide and flared nasal base. Your tip also looks somewhat poorly defined. Rhinoplasty would be a nice option to help narrow your base and reduce the flare component of your nostrils. At the same time you could consider tip reshaping. A key factor in your case is maintaining ethnic consistency in terms of the result. Make sure you seek out a plastic surgeon who is versed in ethnic rhinoplasty. The average cost for this type of procedure in my office is around $6500 including facility, anesthesia and surgeon fees. Good luck.
