What type of nose do I have and what rhinoplasty type is recommended? (Photo)

Hello and thank you for your question and the picture. From what I can see, your nasal tip looks a little asymmetric and bulbous (poorly defined). Addressing the shape of your nose (especially the nasal tip) is actually one of the most common reasons people seek out and undergo a rhinoplasty. An open septorhinoplasty can best address both your aesthetic concerns and any functional issues with your nose. I would be able to adjust the size, shape, and definition of your nose (particularly the tip)!

This truly is a surgery of millimeters- and whether you're looking for a minor adjustment or a major transformation, it requires exceptional surgical skill to achieve functional and natural-looking results! Because your nose is the DEFINING feature of your face- I would only recommend seeing a surgeon who specializes in male rhinoplasty procedures, and who has significant training and experience performing these surgeries. I actually trained under one of the world leading male rhinoplasty experts (who performs 1,000+ nosejobs annually).

I recommend for you to setup a formal consultation with me (or another plastic surgeon who is extremely comfortable with male rhinoplasties) to thoroughly discuss your surgical goals, undergo a formal examination, evaluate your options, and develop a personalized plan just for you. I hope this helps!

Based on your photo, you appear to have a bulbous nasal tip and flaring nostrils. If this is a source of insecurity, please consult with several reputable rhinoplasty specialists who offer computer Imaging so you could see what might be best for you moving forward. I hope this helps!

Hi rhinoplasty can enhance both function and appearance of the nose. It is better for you to consult with a facial plastic surgeon who can examine you and discuss the surgical procedure and the post op recovery
process.
