Can intense massage or “nose exercises” make my nose smaller?

I am unaware of any nasal exercises. The muscles at the bottom of the nose dilate the nostrils. If you are desiring a smaller nasal appearance., Please consider meeting with several reputable rhinoplasty specialist who offer computer imaging so you could see what to expect moving forward. Thank you for your question. Sincerely, Dr. Joseph

While there are numerous non-surgical treatments available for many cosmetic concerns, the size and shape of your nose are primarily determined by your bone and cartilage structure, which cannot be altered with massage or exercises.
Nose exercises or massage techniques that claim to reshape or slim the nose have not been scientifically proven to be effective. Any temporary changes in the shape or size of your nose due to these methods are likely due to swelling or inflammation, and are not permanent.
Non-surgical nose jobs using dermal fillers can help to change the shape and appearance of the nose, but these treatments add volume, they do not make the nose smaller. Fillers can be used to smooth out humps or bumps, lift the tip or create a more balanced appearance, but they cannot reduce the size of the nose.
If you are unhappy with the size of your nose, your best option would be to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon. They can discuss your concerns, evaluate your nose and facial structure, and help you understand what results are possible with surgical and non-surgical treatments.
Remember, it's important to have realistic expectations and understand that everyone's nose is unique and contributes to their individual appearance. It's also crucial to consider any treatment's potential risks and benefits.
