Asked By:Nnz bcar in San Jose, CA

When I see my nose, the first thing I see are my very wide nostrils and to me they resemble a pig nose. The nostrils are wide, and they show when I'm looking straight. My nose is also very wide, specially when I smile. I am wondering if there is any way to "hide" the nostrils so they won't make my nose look pig like but still have a nice natural looking nose ? I have attached 3 pictures of my nose now, and 2 pictures of a nose that I would love to see as a possibility for me in the future
