Answer: Surgical rhinoplasty is better for you Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photograph, you have a high radix and dorsal hump with an over-projected nasal tip. Surgical rhinoplasty is a much better option for you. Nonsurgical injections would just enlarge your nose and elevate your radix causing it to blend into your forehead which would not look good. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.

Answer: Non Surgical Ways to Reduce Size of Nose Unfortunately at this point there is no significant way to make the nose smaller non-surgically. That is because the nose is largely made of bone and cartilage which create its structural foundation. Similarly, there is not a great way to make a house smaller without removing some of the wood or brick that provide its support. The final component of the nose that can actually be modified non-surgically to some extent is the skin and soft tissue. In some patients with thick, oily skin of the nose, this may be due an excess of sebaceous glandular tissue. This can sometimes be treated with medications such as accutane or with resurfacing procedures such as laser or chemical peels. Another disease process, known as rhinophyma is another situation where the skin and soft tissue can be reduced to decrease the size of the nose without a formal rhinoplasty.

Answer: Non surgical solutions to reduce the nose so far I am nor an advocate for non surgical procedures on the nose, only if it was the case of a rhinofima, then laser to improve the quality of the skin affected may reduce substancially the size of the nose.

Answer: Nasal fillers Think of fillers as being a form of camouflage. They clearly can't make the nose physically smaller but they can be used to improve the overall profile and overall proportions, which may be enough to give you a better appearance. Ironically this involves adding volume, rather than subtracting so the only way of making the nose smaller is surgery, I'm afraid!
