I happen to have an extremely unattractive long nose, which in my opinion doesn't suit my face at all. What procedures can I undergo in order to achieve a shorter nose and exactly how short can I get? Thank you in advance
Answer: Can you shorten a long nose? Hi, I have performed and taught Rhinoplasty for 30 years. From the photos, your nose is long which means that the nasal tip is under-rotated. The nasal tip is also over projected which means the tip sticks too far off of the face making it appear elongated. There is a slight dorsal hump, a high dorsum and a slightly wide nasal tip. Rhinoplasty can significantly reduce all the "large" and "wide" aspects of the nose making it more feminine and refined. I would also like to mention that your chin is quite weak which creates an imbalance making the nose appear larger and the mid face appear top heavy. Chin augmentation, using a chin implant, can be performed at the same time as the Rhinoplasty to add projection to the chin creating harmony and balance to the lower face. Hope this helps.
