Which procedures would help me achieve my desired side profile?

Question

I can see that I have different nose and cheekbones to the reference picture, so I would need to focus on those two things. Would an open rhinoplasty allow me to achieve this profile? Also I want to do a malar osteotomy rather than do implants as I don’t like the idea of redoing surgery to change the implants as I age. Any other advice to make my features more Eurocentric and match the reference profile would be appreciated.

Hello! Thank you for your question.As far as I can see from your photos for your nose rhinoplasty will be help you to achieve this nose result. For the jawline it would be better to talk with a dental surgeon. Best Regards!

It's not clear from your narrative and your photos what you're looking to achieve. You appear to have a pleasing facial profile in both photos, though one is much smaller than the other. Thank you. Dr Joseph

It's important to understand that every individual's facial anatomy is unique, and achieving a specific "Eurocentric" profile may not be possible or realistic for everyone. However, an open rhinoplasty may be able to address concerns you have about the appearance of your nose, such as reducing or refining the size, improving symmetry, or adjusting the angle of the tip.

A malar osteotomy can also be an effective option to address concerns about the shape and position of the cheekbones. This procedure involves surgically repositioning the bones to create a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing appearance.

It's important to discuss your goals and concerns with a qualified and experienced plastic surgeon who can evaluate your facial anatomy and make recommendations for the most appropriate procedures to achieve your desired results. They can also discuss the potential risks and benefits of each procedure, as well as any limitations or factors that may impact the outcome of the surgery.

Keep in mind that cosmetic surgery is a personal decision and should only be pursued after careful consideration and consultation with a qualified healthcare professional. It's important to have realistic expectations and to prioritize your overall health and well-being above any aesthetic concerns.

Best of luck !

Hi thanks for the question, unfortunately these photos are not something we can see well. Your photo is too far away and the model picture for reference is too close. You have a great profile already from what I can see.

The rejection rate of medpor implants is very low. Also, in an option for you, a malar implant can be made from the outer layer of your skull bone. You will get definite results from rhinoplasty. Dr.Hakan Demir in Antalya in Turkey
