I find the tip of my nose too short and round, the bridge of my nose is too low also my nostrils are really round and wide. I don't know how to put it in a sentence but I want nostrils that are defined and angled to make my nose look more refined and angled.
Answer: Candidate for rhinoplasty After reviewing your photos and reading your concerns, I believe that you are a good candidate for rhinoplasty. This would build up the height of the bridge of your nose, add tip projection, and narrow the nasal tip and base. I recommend consulting with a Board-Certified plastic surgeon who will accurately examine your nose, create a simulation based on what your nose could look like after surgery, and develop a plan tailored to your needs and wishes. Good luck!

Answer: Flaring nostrils Based on your photos it appears that you would be a good candidate for rhinoplasty for reduction of nostril flare and size, such as the example in the link below

Answer: Rounded or Retracted Alar Margins Whorvi,No worries!! From your photos and your written concerns, you should find an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon that will address them without difficulty. At your consultation, express exactly what you do not like and your ideal shape of the nose you desire. Computer simulation is a great tool to do this.

Answer: Increased nose projection Thank you for the question and photos. Much of what you describe is common for nose shape and proportions of certain ethnicities. Improvement of the aspects of the nose that you describe often requires adding projection to the bridge and tip of the nose. This can be done in several ways depending on the degree of improvement desired as well as personal preferences. Options for increased nasal projection includes:injectable fillerssynthetic implantrib or other autologous (ear or septal) cartilage graftsIn doing so, the shape and appearance of your nostrils will automatically change as well. If needed, cartilage grafts can also be placed at the rim of the nostrils for additional change.All the best,Dr. Remus Repta

Answer: Changing the shape of the nostrils An alar plasty accomplishes narrowing wide nostrils by removal of a wedge of skin at the base of the nostrils. Composite skin grafts harvested from the ear can help with alar retraction. It is impossible to make the nostrils more defined and angled
