What Will I Look Like With a Nose Job?
Having a nose job (rhinoplasty) can change your facial appearance in dramatic ways. But what exactly can you expect?
This all depends on the type of nose job you decide to have, and the desired outcome being achieved. Every face is unique, and so there is no one-size-fits-all answer.
Benefits of Nose Job Surgery
Nose job surgery is one of the top cosmetic procedures in the world. It can:
- Treat birth or injury-related deformities
- Improve the shape, size, or structure of an existing nose
- Correct breathing problems caused by a deviated septum
- Enhance overall facial balance and pre-existing features
Potential Results
Potential results of a nose job vary depending on what a person wants to achieve. Some general outcomes include:
- Smaller nose: A rhinoplasty procedure can be used to make a nose smaller, or to reduce the size of the bridge, the tip, or both parts.
- More narrow bridge: A more narrow bridge can be created through a nose job, to give an overall slimmer look.
- Rotated or lifted tip: This procedure also corrects a drooping nasal tip by lifting and reshaping.
- Reduced bump: A nose job may reduce or eliminate a bump or hump on the bridge.
Your surgeon can give you a better idea of what the potential results could be based on the changes they plan to make. It’s important to bear in mind that nose job surgery may involve several stages, and the final results may take some time to become apparent.
Final Thoughts
The decision to have a nose job should not be taken lightly. You should research the potential risks and benefits, discuss the procedure with your doctor, and be aware of the recovery process required.
Taking the time to understand what can be expected from a nose job will help ensure you’re on the right track for the outcome you desire.
