I’m very happy with the overall shape and size of my nose, but the problem I have is that my radix point(where the nose curves to the forehead) is higher, past my pupils. This is causing my nose and even my entire mid face to look longer. Is there any way to lower this point so that the nose curve is at or below the pupil?? It would help dramatically!!! I added a photoshopped before and after. The before is somewhat how my nasion looks currently, and the after is how I want it to look.
