Nose Shape Concerns Melbourne

What Are Common Aesthetic Complaints About Nose Shape?

Noses come in all shapes and sizes. While beauty is most definitely in the eyes of the beholder, you may see your nose as detracting from your appearance.

For some, the bridge of your nose may be flat or crooked or marred by small bumps and dips. Your tip may be bulbous or too downturned or upturned. Your nostrils may be too wide or narrow or asymmetric.

It is possible to non-surgically treat your nose to improve your overall nose shape and facial balance, and to create a better side profile. Please note that this is no longer a service that Dr. Jodie offers from her clinic due to it's high risk nature.

Given the potentially significant risks of non-surgical treatments for noses, it is imperative that you seek professional advice from an experienced clinician (or two) before proceeding.

What Will Happen At Your Dr. Jodie Consultation For Your Nose Shape Concerns?

Your Dr. Jodie clinician will carefully assess your nose to see if you are a suitable candidate for non-surgical treatment options. Contrary to what social media may portray, very few people are ideal candidates for such treatments. Although non-surgical treatments are less invasive than surgical rhinoplasty, they still carry significant risk, including blindness, stroke, tissue death with loss of nose tissue, and scarring. This may be one area of your face where a single surgery may be preferable to repeated non-surgical treatments, due to the nature of those risks.

During your appointment, your Dr. Jodie clinician will outline treatment processes with a view to detailing all risks involved, even though she does not offer the procedure herself. Unfortunately, unscrupulous providers regularly skirt around the potential risks of non-surgical procedures in aesthetic medicine and the nose is a very high-risk zone. If surgery is evidently the best route, she will advice you of our preferred plastic surgeons and ENT surgeons.

If nose treatment is not for you, surgical or otherwise, it is possible to consider other measures that may improve facial balance even without directly addressing your nose. These may play down your nose shape or size concerns. For instance, an increase in cheek width can give the appearance of a smaller nose, as can a more projected or elongated chin. You deserve an experienced clinician to guide these judgements and help you decide on a treatment plan just for you. By taking a 'whole face' approach to your care, your Dr. Jodie clinician can help you achieve the look you desire.
