My nose is pointy like a beak! Do you think i am a good candidate for Rhinoplasty? I want a natural good side profile for once. I have always hated my nose and really want a nose job to make my nose look normal but everyone of my friends says i dont need one. i think my nose takes up my whole face and i hate any photos of me on the side. Honest thoughts please?
Answer: Improving the nasal profile with rhinoplasty
If you hate the appearance of your profile, then rhinoplasty can certainly improve it and make it more attractive. Reducing your dorsal hump (bridge) to give you a more feminine profile will make the nose appear a bit smaller, a bit shorter, and "prettier". A great way to see how specific changes will affect the look of your nose, and determine whether you like it or not, is to sit down with your surgeon and have him/her perform photomorphing with your pictures.

I read your concerns and reviewed your photos:
Rhinoplasty Surgery techniques may be used to remove your profile hump, and deproject your tip. This may lead to a more pleasing nasal appearance.

Answer: Bridge hump removal
It sounds like you're a potential candidate for rhinoplasty. The concerns you're expressing and photos show a relatively common (in my experience) type of over sized nose.
An experienced rhinoplasty surgeon should be able to help you. The decision to have surgery should be up to you. What matters is that your current nose has bothered you for a long time.

Answer: Rhinoplasty for a natural looking profile
Rhinoplasty can certainly be performed to make your nose less “beak-like”. According to the profile photos, removing the dorsal hump on the bridge will help. The depressor septi ligament can be released to prevent the tip from drooping down upon animation. Rhinoplasty is performed under a brief general anesthesia as an outpatient procedure. Please refer to the link below for before and after photos of a patient who had similar concerns as you.

Answer: Rhinoplasty
Thanks for the photos. From your profile, you certainly can have some improvement to soften the profile. Of course, an exam in person would be essential. Good luck.
