Answer: Rhinoplasty Unfortunately, I can not see your photos? It is in your best interest to discuss these issues with a board certified plastic surgeon, expert in rhinoplasty, on the basis of in-person consultation. Good luck.

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. Robert Singer, M.D., FACS La Jolla, California
