I hate the front of my nose. How could it look better? I find it big. (Photos)

Question

I don't like my nose; I find it too large for my face. I especially do not like how my nose appears from the right side of my face. When I look at myself in front of a mirror I like the front view of my nose( Maybe because the mirror is high); however, when I end up taking a picture it appears quite large. I always take my pictures from the side. I don't like the two bumps on the side top and the tip of my nose and I find it looks like a bubble.

If you would like to explore options for modifying the shape of your nose, then you could consider consulting with an an experienced board certified surgeon to look at your options.

Thank you very much for sharing your concerns with us.The harmony between facial parts makes us instinctively recognize the beauty... without knowing it, without defining it, just a perception that surprises and captivates us.In this regard, I suggest perform a Closed Rhinoplasty (without visible scars) to treat the tip, base and nasal bridge.With this procedure you get a delicate nose, better harmonize with your other facial features.Respectfully,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your
photograph, you may benefit from a tip refining rhinoplasty. Your surgeon can
accomplish this by trimming, suturing, and reshaping the cartilage in your
lower nose. You may also benefit from a cephalic rotation of your tip to turn
up your tip slightly and a conservative dorsal hump reduction.  Make sure you specifically look at before and after
pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon
and not just a computer animation system. The most important
aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek
consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate
you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.

Rhinoplasty works well for exactly the type of nose shape concerns that you have. Your nasal tip is too bulbous and it is long and downturned for a female. Nose tip reshaping will provide some good improvement for you.
