Is my nose going to be more complex to work on? (photo)

March 7, 2025
Asked By:emily7789 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I have a very distinctive nose. It’s a hugeeeee insecurity of mine. To the point I wear a hat everyday so people don’t focus on it. It’s really affecting my day to day love. When I smile it looks huge. Is my type of nose a difficult rhinoplasty? I’m just worried it’s going to be crazy expensive because I’ll most likely need a piece of rib for the tip of my nose.
