I am looking to find out if its possible to curve the bridge of the nose without changing the appearance from the front. I understand that it might look SLIGHTLY different as the nose will be altered but can you change the bridge without making the nose shorter/wider? I don't mind the front of my nose and I think it suits my face well. However, I am very unhappy with my profile and am looking to make the bridge of my nose more curved and feminine. Can this be done without widening the front?
