In addition I hav always thought my nose was quite wide at the bridge. Are these minor things I am seeing or are these typical things that bing people in for surgery?
Answer: YES- I Recommend Rhinoplasty | Facial Plastic Surgery Expert | Crooked | Functional Nose Job | Breathing Issues | Beverly Hills Hello and thank you for your question. Addressing breathing issues is actually one of the most common reasons people seek out and undergo a rhinoplasty. An open septorhinoplasty can best address both your functional issues and any aesthetic concerns with your nose. I would be able to address your septum, and open up and reinforce your internal and external nasal valves to improve the airflow through your nose! I'd also be able to adjust the size, shape, and definition of your nose.

Answer: It's always best to do cosmetic work at the same time as functional work in the nose. If you have a deviated nasal septum that is causing nasal obstruction, and if you also have dissatisfaction with the appearance of your nose, please consider meeting with several reputable rhinoplasty specialist so you could see what to expect after surgery. Nasal narrowing is commonly performed with rhinoplasty surgery. I hope this is helpful. Sincerely, Dr. Joseph

Answer: Minor rhinoplasty... Many people that have rhinoplasty have only small problems like a small bump. If you are happy with the tip, but would like the bridge improved, then it's definitely worth it to do. Just be sure you are seeing a rhinoplasty specialist.

Answer: Would a nose job improve the look of my nose or am I seeing something so subtle it's not worth changing? Keep in mind that following advice from a surgeon on this or any other website who proposes to tell you whether you are an appropriate candidate for surgery and exactly what to do without seeing photos and more importantly 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 certified by the American Board of American 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.
