I would like my nose to suit my face, and with a rounder face and small jaw. What do I need to do to my nose? (Photo)

Question

I have been considering a nose job for a while, but am not sure what operations I need done to my nose. Ideal outcome pictures included along with pictures of my nose. I would like my nose to suit my face, and with a rounder face and small jaw if it’s even the slightest bit too big or too small it will look bad. Unfortunately I cannot post my full face, so I understand that the feedback I can receive is limited. However I appreciate any advice that can be given!

Thank you for your question. It is difficult using only pictures to determine the best procedures, it is important that your surgeon can look at your nose in-person. I recommend consultation with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon who specializes in rhinoplasty. At your consultation, you can express your goals and at our practice, we use imaging software to ensure your goals align with what we can realistically achieve in surgery. Best of luck!

What could be done for your nose? From the limited information contained in the photos you send, it appears that you have a dorsal hump, and a crooked nose. These issues are commonly addressed during routine rhinoplasty. For more particulars an in person consultation would be necessary.

Regan Thomas, MD · Answer

As you correctly suggest, its difficult to make an assessment for rhinoplasty without seeing your entire face.  However, it appears you would benefit from narrowing and refining your nasal tip, removing your profile hump and straightening your profile, and both narrowing as well as straightening your nasal bones.  I typically would approach these changes through what is termed open rhinoplasty which I feel would enhance precision of the changes.   Best wishes to you as you explore your possibilities for possible surgery.
