Rhinoplasty - sloped or straight?

Hi there. Thank you for your post although without the photos, it is hard to comment specifically on the photoshopped changes. In general, a slightly sloped nose gives a more feminine side profile, whereas, a straight nose is generally desirable in men. Having said that, in my practice, I favour just a gentle lift at the tip - enough to give a nice feminine look but still keeping it natural and not like a nose that has been done! Good luck!

Hello and thank you for your question. Unfortunately I am not able to view your pictures.  It may be helpful to try to upload them again.   Make
sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients
who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and not just a computer
animation system. The most important aspect is to find a
surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a
qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.

Hi Helena,
I do not see the photoshopped pictures posted. Seeing these photos would help guide you. I tend to favor a straight profile because it usually results in a more natural and refined look than one that is sloped. You may want to consider a closed or 'endonasal' rhinoplasty (no scars on the outside of your nose). I encourage you to seek out a surgeon who is highly trained specifically in aesthetic plastic and reconstructive surgery. Thank you very much for your question.

Every nose is different and unique to
that individual. If the appearance of your nose concerns you enough to do
something about it, it can be improved with a natural artistically performed
rhinoplasty. What would be the best option and exact procedure would depend on
an examination and discussion about desired outcome. Excellent results can be
achieved with either a closed or open technique.Keep in mind that following advice from a
surgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you exactly what
to do based on two dimensional photos without examining you, physically feeling
your tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical history and
discussing the pros and cons of the operative procedure would not be in your
best interest. Natural appearing results need to be individualized and what is
appropriate for one patient is not necessarily the best for someone else. I
would suggest that you find a surgeon with extensive rhinoplasty experience
certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and one who is ideally a
member of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS).  If
you live outside of the United States,
the surgeon should ideally be a member of the International Society of
Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS) that you
trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that
surgeon in person. Robert Singer, M.D., FACSLa
