4 Common Nose Shape Concerns That Can Be Addressed With Surgery
Posted on July 10th, 2021 by Dr. William FranckleCosmetic surgery for the face is more common and accessible than you may think. If you often find yourself feeling less than confident about your nose shape—especially when it comes to taking photos, spending time with friends in public, or just never being satisfied with the final result of your makeup routine — you can explore your options with a board-certified plastic surgeon, like Dr. Franckle to help you find the best procedure to address your nose shape concerns.
Crooked Nose
For some, their nose shape concerns are not necessarily noticeable when looking from the side but rather straight on. Crooked noses appear to shift slightly to the right or the left instead of following a straight line down to the philtrum. In general, crooked noses may appear as I-, S-, or C-shaped and can result from an injury or congenital disability.
Prominent Nose Bridges
On the other hand, your side profile may be your main concern. A rhinoplasty can help you feel more confident about your side profile by correcting protruding nose bridge humps. By removing excess cartilage, Dr. Franckle can rectify a prominent bridge and help you achieve a nose with an attractive, natural-looking curve.
Nasal Tip Size
Though people often associate correcting nasal bridges with traditional nose jobs, many patients are interested in making the tip of their nose appear slimmer or more symmetrical. In this case, Dr. Franckle would redefine the shape, size, and structure of the tip to help achieve a more natural look and balance your facial features.
Deviated Septum
Though slight congestion is usually imperceptible unless you have a cold or sinus issues, a deviated septum can lead to noticeable symptoms that negatively impact your quality of life. Difficulty breathing, nosebleeds, post-nasal drip, and loud snoring can result from a deviated septum, though some mild cases may not pose any side effects. It’s estimated that 80% of people experience this condition.
