Dear Eliza,

Thank you for your question and sharing your photos.

My assumption is that you would like a straight profile or a slight supra-tip break ( "ski slope" contour).

To begin with, I would mention that most people around are not aware that your nose is not perfectly straight on profile because the oblique probably looks straight. Leaving things as they are is definitely not detrimental to your beauty, but I full understand that to you it feels like an unfinished business..

You have the option of using injectable filler to create a straight profile, but I am not sure if this approach can create a "ski slope" contour.

If you are looking to get a revision, it would be worth having a consultation with computer imaging and simulation so you can decide whether a different shape would have a significant or modest impact on your appearance. It is possible to address the profile and create a different contour.

You also need to bear in mind that very surgery carries uncertainties and risks, and the decision needs to weighed carefully.

Based on the pictures it appears you have had a good result. The most important thing to consider is what goals you had preoperatively and were these accomplished? If you have specific concerns with your postoperative appearance I would recommend that you them with your surgeon.

This looks like a good result based on the limited pictures that you have provided. The question is, are you happy with the result and if not, what would you like changed?
