Large noses run in my family but up until my mid-twenties I assumed I had escaped unscathed. Unfortunately this was not the case, and I feel that it now overshadows my other features and protrudes much too far out from my face. I have no qualms whatsoever with it from a front view, it’s only my side profile I am self conscious about, with the dorsal slope being far too high. Was wondering which (if any) form of procedure would be appropriate. UK based, 25 years old, 55kg, thank you!
Answer: What you should know about rhinoplasty Thank you for your question and photos. While suggesting an open or closed procedure would require an in-person examination, you appear to be a candidate for rhinoplasty to change your nose’s appearance. The dorsal slope can be redefined and the tip deprojected to create balance with the rest of your facial features and improve your side profile.

Answer: What type of Rhinoplasty would suit your nose? What type of rhinoplasty would suit your nose? hello. Based on the photos you present, your nose doesn’t really look that large to me. you do have a small dorsal hump and slightly high radix. Assuming your septum is OK, a simple straightforward rhinoplasty could be performed. The particular type of rhinoplasty, be at open or closed or some other variation on the theme just depends on the comfort level of the operating surgeon. Some are more comfortable with open while others are more comfortable with closed, while yet others are experimenting with other less established approaches. Closed rhinoplasty is the least invasive and is the approach I would use in a simple straightforward rhinoplasty such as yours.

Answer: Issue with the appearance of your nose You have pretty much won the lottery if large noses traditionally run in your family. The only thing that you could address is the small dorsal hump and perhaps a bit of tip refinement. I would not do anything to your nose other than those items from the photos that you have provided.
