I am 18 years old but plan on getting my surgery done at 19. I have always hated my nose, it is too wide especially when i smile it is also so flat it takes up my face and I hate the way it looks in pictures. I was wondering if my nose is capable of doing my nose as any of the pictures so that it is smaller.I chose women with circular/heart shaped heads as mine.
Answer: My Nose Is Too Wide And Flat...Is There Hope ? Rhinoplasty absolutely would make a wonderful improvement. From your photos you are an excellent candidate for rhinoplasty, often called ethnic rhinoplasty, that i perform on a routine basis. The procedure would entail reshaping the cartilage of the tip, as well as adding additional cartilage for refinement, projection and definition. The lower one third of your nose looks larger in relation to the overly low nasal dorsum, or bridge. The dorsum would need to be augmented, or added to to create the appropriate balance as in the photos you sent. This will create a nice natural looking straight dorsum, or bridge to your nose. There are several options for dorsal grafts including synthetic material or use of your own natural tissues, which is generally preferred. Lasty, reducing the flare of the nostrils will further narrow the appearance of your nose. Your pictures and goals are very realistic. At times, it helps our patients conceptualize the described procedure with computer imaging.

Answer: Rhinoplasty candidate for wide, flat nose Yes, you are a good candidate for a rhinoplasty procedure. To accomplish your goals of narrowing a wide nose, a tip rhinoplasty can be performed to narrow the wide tip. An alar plasty involves removal of small wedges of skin at the base of the nostrils to narrow wide nostrils. Osteotomies of the nasal bones are required to narrow the bridge line. To help with the flat bridge, is also important to raise the bridge with patient's own cartilage grafts harvested from inside the nose and placed on top of the bridge line. For many examples, please see the link below
