In Photos, my Appears Wide and Bulbous at the Tip. Can I Get a Nose More Similar to Angelina Jolie Via Closed Rhino? (photo)

Question

I have very large features, but I would like my nose to be more petite and feminine. I would prefer to do a closed rhinoplasty, as I tend to scar easily. I know that I can't expect to get someone else's nose. But would it be possible to get something similar to her's with my nose as a starting point? Our noses from the side don't look that different, why is that when our noses from the front look so much different? What would you do to get my nose to look more like her's?

Yes you can get that refinement and narrowing and natural look IF you choose an experienced surgeon who does natural subtle changes and does what u want-- not what he wants.

Closed rhinoplasty is certainly acceptable technique to  perform this rhinoplasty.  Narrowing the bridge and a subtle refinement of tip is certainly can be accomplished through close rhinoplasty techniques.  Remember no surgeon can give you and exact match to a celebrity nose, so  remember to have realistic expectations on  the change that can be made on your nose.

Kimberly Lee, MD · Answer

From the profile your nose is very similar to Angelina's, based on the photos you have posted.  An in-person consultation with a proper evaluation of the inside and outside of your nose and computer imaging to show you realistic results is recommended.  Please consult with a board certified specialist who can best assist you in achieving the results you seek.

Michael Sundine, MD, FACS · Answer

In reviewing your photographs there are certainly some features that can be improved in your nose.  The nose can be narrowed with nasal osteotomies.  The tip can be refined and set back somewhat that would make it somewhat close to the nose you desire although you cannot be guaranteed a specific result.
