Other questions are do the after images make my face look more harmonious or imbalanced also can you tell what the profile of my nose would look like or will I have to try and create that too?
Answer: Rhinoplasty Imaging is a very useful tool to help set appropriate expectations going into surgery. From your images it appears you are trying to create a more defined nasal dorsum (bridge). Although you did not show profile photos, to get the result you are showing would likely require building up the height of the dorsum. In addition you narrowed the tip. These are all reasonable expectations for surgery, but it is difficult to say how realistic without in person examination. Just as you have done with the forward facing photos, imaging can be done on the profile photos. Imaging done on the profile photos often gives a better idea of the ultimate result than the front views.

Answer: Smaller African American nose The African American nose can be made smaller overall. The biggest improvement happens in the wide nostrils through the use of Alarplasty. Please keep in mind that a computer created image can never be duplicated but is only a rough estimate of what to expect in terms of change. RegardsDr J

Answer: Reasonable expectations for an ethnic nose. Without a physical examination it's impossible to say but it looks from the video imaging is though your expectations are realistic.

Answer: Yes Absolutely - you may need some cartilage to be harvested from your septum or your ear to create a fuler nasal dorsum. Your goal is realistic, no doubt.
