Q&A with Dr Jeremy Hunt

Rhinoplasty and facial proportion

Question:

Hi Dr Hunt, i am wondering about getting rhinoplasty, although i would like a very subtle change. i actually think my nose would be OK if it was on a face that was larger than mine - i have a very small face, narrow cheekbones and fine lines - which is fine, but my nose seems quite out of proportion. I am after a reduction in the bridge of my nose, but do not want it changed radically, or made into a small button nose or similar. is this a realistic request? Thanks in advance Tania

Answer:

For me the result of a good rhinoplasty is a nose that fits and balances a persons face. Given this each person is diffent so each rhinoplasty I perform needs to be tailored to the individual. This will ionvolved measurement of the middle and lower thirds of the face and the length and projection of the nose ( how far the nose sticks out). From these I can plan a procedure to alter what is out of balence and create a final result that is in harmony with the rest of the face.
