Is It Possible to Upturn my Nose Even a Little More?

Question

I really would love to know if it is possible to make my nose tip upturn a little more and how much this would cost.

To create a natural looking nose, a combination of artistic mastery and technical expertise are needed.

	Based on this picture, I would not recommend turning up the tip of the nose any more, even though it is technically feasible...

	If it is done,  your nose appear shorter.

Do NOT turn your tip up any more--it will not look good and will look artificial. You can find someone to do anything but you should leave it alone.

Hi Syl,

	Do not increase the angle of your nose "a little more" unless you wish that on a clear day people will be able to see the back of your pharynx (throat) through your porcine like nostrils.  Classic da Vinci proportions which define beauty to this day, call for about a 105 degree angle from the lip to the nasal tip. You look beautiful the way you are (see lyrics to Bruno Mars song).  Good luck and be well.

I would  not turn up you nose anymore than it appears in the photos, because it looks a bit too much now.
