Is my nose too curved, bent or prominent for a male?

Question

I actually like my nose but when I was a child some people with straight noses noted that my nose is bent. I also know that male noses should be more prominent than female noses. Should I consider surgery to straighten the nose?

Dear Cheerful550603,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Our best candidates for rhinoplasty are those with severe dissatisfaction for many years. You're a handsome young man, and you should not pursue surgery based on the opinion of others. Thank you. Dr Joseph

If you are happy with your nose, then leave it alone. Please don't be concerned about others think. It is your nose.
