Curved nose when I smile - Droopy tip? (photo)

January 1, 2025
Asked By:Tlq84 in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada

I don’t like that my nose, when I smile, curves. It’s not nearly as evident when I have a neutral face, is that a drooping tip? There’s also a pronounced long/sharp bone (or cartilage?) that ends and gives me a bump right above my tip. Is that a dorsal hump even though it’s much lower than any pics I’ve seen. Will rhino change what my nose looks like straight on? It looks almost like a triangle. Also should I reduce the overall projection of the nose?
