I want to know how I can make my nasolabial angle more obtuse and attractive. While researching, I realized it's not just the angle, but it has to be something underneath at the base of the nose that is different. After looking this up, I saw a two types of surgeries on google images... a "premaxillary augmentation", and a "paranasal augmentation". Could someone tell me how this could augment my philtrum and increase my nasolabial angle? Are there even any surgeons who perform this?

Answer: Rhinoplasty It is very difficult to give you good advise without in person evaluation. In general, naso-labial angle can be corrected with a relatively simple surgery. However, whether correction of naso-labial angle or other variation of rhinoplasty would be best suited for your needs can be decided only on the basis of in person evaluation and discussion about your goals. Good luck.

Answer: Rhinoplasty would be best Hax: You do have a pretty sharp, acute nasolabial angle like you say. It usually means your septum is deficient at the bottom, combined with tip cartilages that point down. Your best result would be a rhinoplasty with caudal septal augmentation which will push the columella down, and additionally you can perform maneuvers like tongue-in-groove or better yet lateral crural overlay (I would recommend lateral crural overlay) to rotate your tip cartilages higher and give your nose a more feminine appearance. The whole nose has to work together, so you might need a hump reduction too. Best of luck.
