I always felt like it doesn't fit my face imo it's too far forward. The tip is also too pointy especially when smiling with a slight bulbous part before the tip. The columella pulls down when I smile so I would want to know if that could also be corrected. I'm not sure if I have any deviation but I feel it does slightly lean to one side. Apologies for the unflattering angles / editing. What nose would suit my facial features ? Do I have thin nasal skin ? Can I do a lip lift as well?
Answer: Challenging Decision Hi,A reduction rhinoplasty may be suitable for you. What I mean is the reducing all the size of your nose including bridge, and the tip. I think it is best to decide after a simulation. Yes you have a thin skin and this influences the results in the long term. It does not look like you have a bulbous tip. Not sure about the lip lift will fit your face. Because according to the front view it looks like a good idea to do the procedure. But the lateral one, in which you are smiling, indicates that the lip length is ok. Hope that helps in deciding.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Dear Isobel22, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos, it looks like you would benefit from rhinoplasty. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Thank you for your questions and for sharing your photographs. I do see your concerns. Based on your photographs, you have an over projected nose (like you mentioned; it's too far forward). Your nasiolabial angle is blunt due to a prominent nasal spine. The skin quality is best to be evaluated in person. Rhinoplasty is one of the most delicate and complex cosmetic surgeries, given the intricate structure of the nose and the balance it provides to a face. There are limitations based on the individual's intricate nasal anatomy and nasal skin quality. For example, a thick nasal skin is great in covering up minor irregularities but since it does not shrink well after surgery, it will not show fine underlying refinements to the same extent as in those with a thinner skin. I would suggest that you consult with a nasal surgeon (Rhinologist) with expertise in performing complex rhinoplasty. You should expect a full detailed examination of your nose is required to assess your nasal skin, cartilage, bony structures, and your nasal airway/ breathing. This will allow the surgeon to evaluate your nasal appearance and its relation to your facial features. The use of manipulated (morphed) digital clinical photography provides a platform for discussion as to your desires and expectations. Such images are not a guarantee of exact results, but a great tool to ensure that you and your surgeon are on the same wavelength. Best wishes
