Will Lowering the Nose Angle Widen My Nostrils?

Question

My nose is upturned over 100 degrees. Will lowering a nose case it to be more projected and/or cause the nostrils to be wider? ... My nose is already borderline too projected.

Amer Nassar, MD · Answer

Anyone maneuver on the nose will result and changes to other angles, distances or proportions for other aspects of the nose. By de rotating a nose, it will often look longer and more projected. The nasal width, however, is typically not affected by de-rotation of the nose. a good rhinoplasty surgeon takes all of this into account as well as the patient's own proportions and aesthetic requirements. It is also very important to discuss realistic expectations and outcomes of patients so that they are aware of and what to expect after surgery.
