I hate my nose, any suggestions? (photos)

Question

I hate how wide it is and I especially hate how it looks from the side I don’t believe that it compliments my face at all. Any suggestions?

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your
photograph, you may benefit from a tip refining rhinoplasty.  You may also benefit from an alar base reduction and a conservative dorsal hump
reduction.  Make sure you specifically look at
before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed
by your surgeon and not just a computer animation system.
The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I
recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic
surgeon who can evaluate you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.

A closed rhinoplasty procedure can accomplish shaving down the dorsal hump, narrowing the bridge line, refining the tip and narrowing the nostrils. Digital computer imaging performed in the office setting would be helpful to understand what can be accomplished with the procedure on your nose with your facial features.  For many before and after examples, please see the link and the video below

There is not much that is wrong with your nose, but I agree that alar base narrowing, slight tip refinement, and minimal dorsal reduction can improve the overall appearance of your nose and improve facial harmony. Consult with an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon.
