I feel like my nose is too straight and pointy (like a witch) what would I benefit from? (photos)

Question

I have the worst nose possible I feel so hideous with it, it’s very pointy and very sharp. I’ve been bullied for it before. I’m fully Puerto Rican both my parents have nice cute noses but mine is completely different. What type of rhino could I benefit from? You can see my dorsal jump from the front too. Thanks

You are a good candidate for a straightforward rhinoplasty. Your nose projects out too far and has a hump. The goal would be to set your nose closer to your face. This is done with basic rhinoplasty techniques

Happy New Year- Your nose seems ideal for a preservation rhinoplasty and tip refinement to make the profile softer (no hump) and the tip less bulbous from the front.It will be important in creating a natural result to consider your heigh and facial shape.Please consult with a specialist rhinoplasty surgeon.Best wishes

Dear Sofia;As far as I can see from the photos, you have a slight curvature to the left in your nose. You have a very small nasal bridge. The tip of your nose is very wide. These can all be changed with the closed rhinoplasty technique. In closed rhinoplasty, the operation is performed by entering through the nostrils and cuts are made entirely inside the nostrils, without cutting the nasal tip consequently there will be no visible scars on the nose. Also this technique protects the veins, nerves, and ligaments.Best regards

Dear sofiasanchezx,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos. it looks like you would benefit from rhinoplasty. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Hello @sofiasanchezx thank you for your question. One of the most important aspects to consider when performing rhinoplasty, is ensuring harmony with other features. We work closely alongside an ENT surgeon in order to ensure correct management and alignment of not only the septum but all facial proportions as well. Is not possible to make an assessment from the pictures, I suggest you consult with different board certified plastic surgeons to provide natural results that are completely in harmony with your features. Best wishes!
