Hello doctors, I love my nose especially in the front. In fact some people have asked me if I got a nose job just by looking at the front. However, I find that from the side it looks a bit too prominent and Sometimes I get self conscious about people taking a picture. What would you recommend as a suitable treatment for someone who wants to soften the features from the side but overall keep the same shape? Would a non surgical nose job also be an option? Thank you in advance.

Based on the photos that you posted, you appear to have a deep radix. The Radix is the root of the nose, and just below that, I can see that you have a very small profile bump. Usually small issues like this can be camouflaged with injectable fillers. In our practice, we prefer to use...

The large nose requires removal of cartilage and bone; the non-surgical rhinoplasty is usually not totally effective for this condition. Diminution of the appearance of the bump may be accomplished with non-surgical rhinoplasty (injection of fillers). These can be temporary (Radiesse, R...
