I've been debating this procedure for quite some time. It seems that my nose, while ok from some angles and lighting, really overwhelms my face.
Answer: Rhinoplasty may be considered for achieving a smaller and less distracting nasal appearance. Based on your photos, you appear to have relatively thin nasal skin and a long nasal appearance with an overprojected nasal profile appearance. Please consider meeting with several reputable rhinoplasty specialists who Offer computer Imaging so you can see what might be best for you moving forward. Wishing you well. Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Answer: Yes, you look like a good candidate. More... You don't have any one overwhelming feature, but rather several measurements of your nose appear to be on the larger side of a range of normal, and when they all add up, it makes you concerned about the overall size. Despite your great chin, the tip iof your nose is strong in its forward projection from your face, so bringing it back closer to the face (de-projecting the tip) would help. The bridge is strong, with a small bump seen on profile view and a larger bump seen on 3/4 view (like the last two photos you posted), so lowering the bridge would be good as well. The 3/4 views make your nose look long, with the tip drooping down, so elevating the tip is another good change for your nose. Shortening the nose would also help with some of the asymmetries we see.

Answer: Rhinoplasty to improve nasal shape... From your photos, you should do well with a rhinoplasty. The fullness of the bridge can be taken down and the overall nose can be made a little smaller. It looks like it may be a little crooked which can also be improved. Be sure to see a rhinoplasty specialist for consultation.

Answer: Rhinoplasty for me? Your initiative to gather information is the best approach before deciding about an aesthetic procedure. The value of rhinoplasty to you depends on your final result. A great result represents tremendous value over your lifetime. An average or poor result much less valuable. Not all rhinoplasties are equal in value to you. Simulate your desired profile result over your photo. Then visit some online galleries showing similar rhinoplasty "before and after" results for others to find a doctor who will create for you the nose you want. You don't need a rhinoplasty unless the procedure results in a nose that you really love.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Thank you for your question. You are an excellent candidate for rhinoplasty. I think it is one of the most beautifying surgeries that we do as plastic surgeons. A large portion of my practice is dedicated to rhinoplasty surgery. It is important to only see plastic surgeons with extensive experience in rhinoplasty, ie perform at least 6 per month and have performed hundreds of cases. Also, critically evaluate on-line galleries to see if their art form resonates with yours. Rhinoplasty is definitely a grey haired plastic surgeon's sport. You should be able to have an excellent result. Best wishes to you.
