Is my Nose is Too Big and Masculine Looking for my Face?

A large nose on a petite woman's face looks even larger when the chin is small. To achieve facial balance and harmony it is important not only to look at the size and shape of the nose by itself, but more so at its relative porportions and relationships with other parts of the face, such as the chin, lips, cheek, etc. Looking at your photograph, I feel that you will benefit from making your nose smaller, as well as augmenting the size of your chin to create more balance.

It is hard to judge the look of your nose solely by
the pictures you have provided. To evaluate candidacy for a nose job, you
should consult a surgeon in-person for a consultation appointment. While you
are in the office, ask to see real life before-and-after photos of past
patients to better judge their work and to predict how your new nose will
likely look. A good surgeon will know how to adjust his or her techniques of
surgery to reflect your gender and ethnicity properly, creating a nose that is
in harmony with your surrounding facial features.

Thank you for your inquiry!

Based on the pictures provided, it seems that you are a good candidate
for a rhinoplasty that will improve the way your nose looks to complement your
facial features in a natural fashion. However, without a physical
examination it is not possible to provide you with specific details. I highly
recommend that you schedule a consultation with a well-experienced surgeon.



It is important to mention that the
finest cosmetic results in any particular case are based on a variety of
factors, including: the unique anatomy of the patient, realistic expectations,
a well-informed and detailed discussion with your plastic surgeon concerning
the best options for you especially covering a deep understanding of the pros
and cons of any given choice you will adopt.



Please keep in mind that following the
advice from a surgeon online who offers to tell you what to do without a
physical examination covering the nature and the status of the tissue,
assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical history, and discussing
the pros and cons of each operative solution would not be in your best
interest. With that in mind, it is the safest and for your best interest to
find a plastic surgeon with solid experience and certified by the American
Board of Plastic Surgery who is ideally a member of the American Society of
Plastic Surgeons that you will trust and be comfortable with. You should
discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person.



Good luck!!!
