Is my nose conventionally attractive? (Photo)

Hello! The balance of the nose with the face is based on proportions and facial features. While it appears that your nose may be a little wide through the tip and perhaps over-projected (a bit tall for your features) it also appears that you have a weak chin, which will make your nose look stronger. You may benefit from rhinoplasty and/or chin augmentation. If interested, I would recommend consulting with an experienced facial plastic surgeon to look at before/after photos and have your photos morphed to show what surgery can do for you. Good luck!

 Beauty is in the  the EYE of the beholder. If there are certain issues regarding your nose that are bothering you, consider proceeding with a rhinoplasty procedure. Common issues that are usually addressed with a rhinoplasty procedure include narrowing the tip, shaving the dorsal hump down and reducing the hanging columella. For many examples of rhinoplasty, please see the video and the link below

No
one ever "needs" a rhinoplasty. It is an elective procedure and only
you can determine if your nasal features concern you enough to do something
about improving the cosmetic appearance of your nose and whether it would
worthwhile.

Following the advice from a surgeon on this or any other website who proposes
to tell you exactly what to do based on limited 2 dimensional photos without
examiningyou, physically feeling the
tissue, assessing your desired outcome, taking a full medical history, and
discussing the pros and cons of the operative procedure would not be in your
best interest. I would suggest you find a plastic surgeon with extensive nasal
surgery experience who is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery
and ideally a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery
(ASAPS) or a facial plastic surgeon (ENT) that you trust and are comfortable
with. You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person.

Additional information
about the procedure will help you decide if it is a procedure that you want to
pursue.
