Could I achieve a nose like Bella Hadid or Blake Lively? (Photo)

Question

As most of you know, I scheduled 2 rhinoplasty consultations with board-certified surgeons near me? For an idea of what I want I saw pics of Bella Hadid & Blake Lively before their nose jobs since their noses were similar to mine. What I really want is a natural looking nose that goes well with my face but could these noses work for me too?

You are an excellent candidate for a rhinoplasty. Of course each nose is unique and it’s impossible to compare exactly with some one else. However from your pictures and the others you show it seems like you want a pretty small cut feminine nose. Some surgeons are very conservative. You do not need a conservative approach. You need dramatic reduction in size. You should make it clear that you want a significant reduction.

Hello and thank you for your question. I believe you are a good candidate for rhinoplasty. You have a dorsal hump and a bulbous nasal tip. You will benefit from reduction of your dorsal hump and nasal tip refinement. Everyone's nose is different and it is impossible to replicate someone else's nose. My best advice is that you discuss your concerns and aesthetic goals with a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience in performing rhinoplasty. I would ask to see before and after pictures of their real patients. It's important that you trust your surgeon's skills and ability to achieve the results you are looking for. In particular, pay attention to your surgeon's experience with rhinoplasty. Best,

Don't get me started on Hadid's nose.  Oops, I got started.  Her nose is an example of what people shouldn't want.  There are at least three post operative complications  1) inverted V deformity, 2) penciled out / too thin dorsal width, and 3) dorsal aesthetic line and dorsal contour irregularities.  This aside, you can have a nice rhinoplasty.  Your skin is slightly thick, so this will limit the delicateness of the final result.   Your nose is slightly long, but it is important that it remains a little long because the middle third of you face is a little long.  If you shorten your nose too much it will look out of balance with the rest of your face.  It will look turned up and make your nasolabial angle look even more oblique.  The too stars you pointed out have smaller middle thirds of their faces.

Gerald Minniti, MD, FACS · Answer

A very important step for planning a rhinoplasty is the use of digital photographic simulation software to morph the photos of your nose. It’s a communication tool to help align the vision of the patient with that of the surgeon. any surgeon that is expert in rhinoplasty uses it.

Matthew Bridges, MD, FACS · Answer

The answer is maybe.  The best thing to do is get computer morphing done to see what might work in real life via surgery.  You have to be careful looking at celebrity noses.  Every nose is different and your nose has fundamental differences compared to the photos you showed.   Go see a rhinoplasty expert to discuss real possibilities.  Good luck!
