I want the bone structure of my thumb downsized I have really wide thumbs (like megan fox's messed up thumb) and they've been taunting me all my life.
Answer: Clubbed Thumbs Correction Your condition is not that uncommon and is called brachydactyly, Type D. Short thumbs have numerous other names and even some superstitions associated with them. Since there is no simple corrective surgery to change the appearance, realizing that your condition is not that uncommon may help you come to terms with it easier. Hey, there's even a Facebook page for short thumbs.

Answer: Would not alter thumbs Thanks for your question and the photo. I would never try and narrow the width of the thumb. This would involve removing part of the bone and could ultimately disrupt the sensation and strength of this vital part.

Answer: On wide thumbs In your case there is can and should. Can you narrow the thumb, technically yes. Should you narrow the thumb in your case, no. Your thumb is normal. You don't like that your nail is wide and the tip of your thumb is shorter. The hand is a very interesting area for aesthetics. First and foremost it has to be functional. That is the issue for you. Making your thumb more narrow would give you problems with your joint and would also likely give you some nail abnormalities. This is unacceptable. There are things that you can do to make the thumb look less squat. Lose the black nail polish. It only draws attention to your nail. Use a beige or lighter pink polish. Allow the nail to grow a little longer and round the tip slightly. Keep your nails well-groomed and keep the polish fresh and not chipped. If you can't keep the polish looking fresh then don't polish.Now, Megan Fox is a very successful and beautiful woman. Clearly, it is possible to do great things despite your thumbs. When it comes to cosmetic body alterations you should never do this because people taunt you. It won't stop the taunting. Do cosmetic surgery because you don't like something, not because someone else doesn't like something. Thumb surgery isn't worth it and it won't give you what you want.
