Question

I am interested in removing some flesh from the lower part of my nose so that my nose will be tighter.

I don't want anything place in my nose but just want some tissue removed because my nose is wide at the bottom and thin up top which creates a more masculine look for me.

I desire a more femine look because I am a female. Is this possible to do without other reconstructing? Just simple tightenting of my nose.

Answer

I would be happy to see you in consultation and evaluate using computer imaging and simulation what it is that you would like to achieve. Based on this evaluation, it is possible to discuss whether simple alar base reduction to narrow the width of the nostrils would be sufficient, or whether you would like also changes in the appearance of the nasal tip, which represents a more extensive operation.
