Hello emilyem413,Thanks for your question.I am unable to see the upper 1/2 of your nose.You appear to have a boxy tip that could be improved by a well done tip rhinoplasty.  This could be of value for someone looking to pursue a career in modeling.I would recommend that you consult with a rhinoplasty specialist in your area for your options.Good luck,Dr. Shah

A modeling career will have nothing to do with mild asymmetrical nostrils, since looking up the nostrils is an unnatural position. A rhinoplasty procedure can address  reduction of the bulbous tip and refining the nose. For more information many examples, please see the link and the video  below

Thank you very much for sharing your concerns with us.The harmony between facial parts makes us instinctively recognize the beauty... without knowing it, without defining it, just a perception that surprises and captivates us.In this regard, I suggest perform a Closed Rhinoplasty (without visible scars) to treat the tip, base and nasal bridge.With this procedure you get a delicate nose, better harmonize with your other facial features.Respectfully,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Thank you for your question and photos. Frankly, it is too hard to say based on these photos if you would benefit from rhinoplasty. Rhinoplasty is such a customized procedure. I would meet with a few board certified plastic surgeons in your area, and ask to see before and after photos of their work. Also, ask if they have imaging to give you an idea of what your before and after photo would look like. Ultimately the decision is yours if you think it is worth the downtime, expense, and recovery. Best of luck!

With the limited information obtained by your posted pictures, it appears that you have a "boxy" nose, which can be improved with a rhinoplasty, your expressed concern of asymmetric nostrils, is one that it is almost impossible to fix and it is usually irrelevant, because almost no body, other than yourself, will notice it.the only way to give you an honest opinion and decide what can be done in your case is with a in person consultation, be sure you seek the help of a board certified plastic surgeon, preferably a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.
