Would a rhinoplasty (cartilage removal & tip work) benefit me? (Photos)

Question

I'm unsure and seeking professional advice Thinking removing some cartilage at the sides to make my nose thinner & maybe some work on the tip? Would this even benefit me cosmetically? Or would it throw my facial harmony off balance? Cant figure this out on my own and need professional guidance

Dear Good467864,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos, it looks like you would benefit from rhinoplasty. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

In general, when people are not sure what's bothering them about their noses with certainty, it may be best to hold off on nasal surgery. Our happiest rhinoplasty patients have had long term dissatisdfaction with their noses for a long period - and they know what they don't like. Hope this helps! Dr Joseph

Hello there, 
You need proper examination of nose before deciding on any surgery of nose. With the front view pictures of yours seems like you have a bulbous tip of nose. So definately you will benefit from a rhinoplasty surgery. However your skin appears thick, and results might be questionable. Do consult a board certified plastic surgeon for detailed examination and appropriate plan of surgery for you. Hope this helps. Thanks for your query here.
