The "hook" nose is not perceived as being feminine looks out of proportion for a small individual and delicate face and can be made more elegant with subtle nasal surgery.
The nose droops as we become older.
Individuals who are relatively young, 50-60 years can look much older with a down turned nose. It is important to balance the nose and chin as depicted in these before and after photos. Some nose surgery does not achieve the patient's wishes. This high school photo of his patient as a before and and after. The patient was unhappy with the appearance afterwards that is because the nose is still too large relative to a weak chin and the nose is not in balance. In addition there is too much cartilage in the tip.
Photo shows revision surgery reducing the nose making is
narrower
and improving the appearance with a chin implant.

Function and structure are important in nasal surgery. The septum, the dividing portion of the two nasal chambers must be straight. This photo shows the patient’s septum blocking the right nasal chamber. A straightened postoperative appearance is seen in the after photo. |

| The nose should be straight externally as well. An overly enlarged nose out of proportion can be improved by rhinoplasty surgery. | |
