I feel that my nostrils are too wide and want to know if there is any procedure that could be taken to make them, as well the tip of my nose, smaller. I feel that my nose takes up too much of my face and would love to make it look smaller.
Answer: Rhinoplasty can make a nice improvement... Rhinoplasty is a great way to make your nose smaller. When the tip is brought in and made shorter, the nostrils will also appear to be shorter. The best place to start is with a consultation with a rhinoplasty specialist where computer imaging can be done to help you see what you might like.

Answer: Rhinoplasty candidate, some advices: Thank you very much for sharing your concerns with us.The harmony between facial parts makes us instinctively recognize the beauty... without knowing it, without defining it, just a perception that surprises and captivates us.In this regard, I suggest perform a Closed Rhinoplasty (without visible scars) to treat the tip, base and nasal bridge.With this procedure you get a delicate nose, better harmonize with your other facial features.Respectfully,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Answer: Tip and Nostril Reductionf Overall your nasal tip is over-projected and ptotic (downward facing). In order to reduce your tip, the cartilages have to be shortened as part of an tip-Rhinoplasty. Your bridge could also use some narrowing and definition. The nostrils can be reduced with an alar base reduction at the same time.

Answer: Rhinoplasty In order to improve your nasal profile, you need an open rhinoplasty to make the whole nose smaller. In addition, the nostrils can be excised along their base to make them smaller.

Answer: Reduction Rhinoplasty The question you ask is a very reasonable one. I would also like to emphasize that your nose is not as big as it appears in the photographs as you are not using a 35 mm lens which represents human vision.With your smartphone there is a “fish eye” effect in which the central portion of the photograph is larger while the edges of the photograph are smaller.I certainly appreciate what you are stating, but it is also important to reference exactly where you are versus the perception that the photograph can create.When looking at the photos you provided you could have narrowing of the nose and refinement to a more “ideal” shape. The steps would include refinements and reduction of the nasal tip cartilages, the width of the upper and lower nose, with reduction of the ala on each side.My recommendation, given your location, would be to research individuals in her local area who specialize in surgery of the nose.Be healthy and be well, James M. Ridgway, MD, FACS
