I have always disliked the brige of my nose. What would you fix/how? (Photo)

I see the bump, and it can come down. From the frontal view, it seems as if that upper part of your nose, where the bump resides, is wide, too, with the nasal bones sitting far apart from each other. So we'd want to narrow the bridge of your nose there. Then, back to the profile view, when a bump is removed from the bridge of the nose, it can make the nose *look* longer, as if the tip had dropped some. So it can be important to elevate the tip a bit, even if that wasn't an original complaint. It's possible to see that effect in the morphs. The forward projection of the tip of your nose is fine, given your great chin.

How *much* to elevate the tip, or lower a bump, or make other changes? We figure that out with morphs, well before surgery. I'd love for you to see some excellent professionally-designed morphs of what could possibly be done with your nose. Morphs could also help you identify better just what's bothering you, and help you set a goal for the rhinoplasty that's accurate for your tastes. Profile and three-quarter views would be particularly important in morphing your nose. (Side note: in my opinion, morphs should really be done by the surgeon, or he should direct an assistant as she makes the morphs. Morphs should be made with a constant eye to what actually *can* be done in surgery, for that particular nose, and the surgeon has that information and judgment best.)

Finally, remember that rhinoplasty is an exquisitely difficult operation to get right, and you should only have surgery if you are able to make yourself very confident in your surgeon's skills. The changes that your nose needs require advanced techniques, and skill that most plastic surgeons don't possess with expertise. For most noses, it's much better to not have surgery than to have inexpertly-performed surgery. Read my essay on how to stay out of trouble while selecting a rhinoplasty surgeon. And it also discusses how to take photos that are best for online evaluations.

While the bump is not huge, a properly performed rhinoplasty can both take down the bump and bring in the bones at the same time so it looks less wide. At the same time, some minor tip work can be done to balance with your new thinner bridge. Be sure to see a rhinoplasty expert for consultation.
