Hi, I'm 18/F and have been insecure about my face, especially my nose, ever since I was a little girl. It's very ski slope like, very upturned. Wide & bulbous at the tip. Not only that but it has a bump (almost indent like on one side). Its very out there and I'd rather have it be more subtle. 2nd-Chin is unproportionately small and has indent. What shall I do to create a more attractive face? It would help a lot with my confidence and social life. Could non surgical be an option aswell?PLZ HELP
Answer: You have a complicated nose to change, but it's certainly possible. See the morph I made from your photos. Click on the "Web reference" link, just below my response, or go here: FacialSurgery.com/RealSelf/RealSelf_taylorengsxo.html I made a computer morph of your nose, and an animation of the morph, to show the changes that are possible for your nose in truly expert hands.Mostly, I narrowed the tip of your nose, and also narrowed the bridge a bit. The prominent edges and bumps are all caused by your strong tip cartilages. The woman in the short video just above had similar wide tip cartilages.You might also benefit from a *small* chin implant. Actually, your chin doesn't bother me at all, but it's personal preference. You should understand that the changes I demonstrated in the morph require advanced techniques, techniques that most plastic surgeons cannot handle. Be sure to read the section in the "Web reference" link on how to stay out of trouble while searching for a rhinoplasty surgeon. You should only have surgery if you are able to make yourself very confident in your surgeon's skills. I'd love to hear what you think of the morph. Did it seem to address your main concerns? Your nose is also a good example of why computer imaging is mandatory in rhinoplasty. You need to know exactly what the surgeon is planning to accomplish -- what features he thinks he can change, and by how much he thinks he can change them. When you see his goals, you'll know whether he has an eye for a beautiful nose, and whether he shares your opinion of what constitutes a beautiful nose. You'll also know whether the changes he proposes are enough to be meaningful to you, and whether he understands your wishes enough to address all of your priorities. But remember, you're not hiring him for his skills with the computer. The doctor must then show you his before and after photos to prove that he can actually accomplish what he draws on the computer. In your case in particular, you need to find a surgeon who understands the issues I mentioned, and how they fit together, and who can actually accomplish them in surgery. You don't want to be looking for a revision later.

Answer: Rhinoplasty with Chin Implant Thank you for your inquiry regarding a Rhinoplasty and Chin Implant. Usually a non-invasive Rhinoplasty done with fillers will only provide you with a minor and temporary correction. I suggest you consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. A surgical Rhinoplasty and a Chin implant can create a beautiful result if done correctly. A chin implant will give you a stronger looking chin. These two procedures are typically done together which creates a beautiful result.

Answer: Rhinoplasty and chin implant for a more attractive and feminine face? Rhinoplasty and chin implant for a more attractive and feminine face? Yes a chin implant and rhinoplasty will do what you want if you see a very experienced rhinoplasty surgeon. When making the bulbous tip smaller on a short nose (which is what you have) it is very important to see a surgeon who can narrow and refine your tip without causing more shortening and creating a pig nose. Therefore see a very experienced rhinoplasty lsurgeon who does natural results in noses like yours.

Answer: Help! I want a more proportionate, attractive face. Rhinoplasty? Chin implant? The photographs demonstrate a weak and recessive chin profile for which a chin implant can improve. Chin implants are usually placed through a small incision underneath the chin. Chin implants are composed of solid silicone, and are manufactured in a large variety of sizes and shapes which is best determined at the time of the examination and consultation. Performing a chin implant will help with facial balance and proportions, especially with respect to the nose. A closed rhinoplasty approach can accomplish reduction of the bulbous tip, refining the bridge line and adding cartilage graft to the supratip area of the nose to help with the dent that is located there. Rhinoplasty is a very difficult endeavor, so choose your surgeon very wisely based on extensive experience. Digital computer imaging would also be helpful to understand what can be accomplished with both surgical procedures on your face. For more information, diagrams of the chin implants themselves, and many before-and-after examples of this combination, please see the link and the video below
