I feel my nose is too chubby and wide. I hate smiling because it makes my nose looks even bigger. I think it is because my nostrils are too big and flare out. I wish to have a more petite and natrual looking nose. Will this be possible? How much work would have to be done to achieve my desired look?
Answer: Rhinoplasty I agree that the appearNce of your nose can be improved considerably. It needs to be shortened and narrowed. The flare of your nostrils can also be corrected using solar wedge rejections.

Answer: Rhinoplasty for the excessively wide nose with thicker skin etc. Rhinoplasty for the excessively wide nose with thicker skin etc. this can be corrected by narrowing the nasal bones, narrowing the nostrils, and refining the tip with possible removal of a small hump. The nose will still be wider when you smile as it naturally does this in all people. See a very experienced rhinoplasty surgeon who does natural looking noses.

Answer: Wide nose rhinoplasty Every nose is different and unique to that individual. If the appearance of your nose concerns you enough to do something about it, it can be improved with a natural artistically performed rhinoplasty. What would be the best option and exact procedure would depend on an in person examination (not just an online consultation) and discussion about desired outcome. Excellent results can be achieved with either a closed or open technique. Keep in mind that following advice from a surgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you exactly what to do and how technically to do it based on two dimensional photos without examining you, physically feeling your tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical history and discussing the pros and cons of the operative procedure would not be in your best interest. Natural appearing results need to be individualized and what is appropriate for one patient is not necessarily the best for someone else. I would suggest that you find a surgeon with extensive rhinoplasty experience certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and one who is ideally a member of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person. Robert Singer, M.D., FACS

Answer: Rhinoplasty Can Make the Nose Narrower Thank you for posting photos along with your question. I agree with other surgeons that rhinoplasty can provide the results you want, if you're concerned about the appearance of your nose. Rhinoplasty can create a narrower, more feminine nose. It's often a very positive experience for patients who have long wanted to change the appearance of their noses. Because nose surgery is more complex than most other aesthetic procedures, I recommend consulting with a few board-certified plastic surgeons who specialize in rhinoplasty until you find a surgeon you feel comfortable with. Good luck.
