Nose Feminization
Refining and softening the structure of the nose
Feminization rhinoplasty transforms a nose perceived as large, long, or angular into one that is more delicate, soft, and harmonious with the face. The goal is not only to reduce but to re-proportion, achieving a feminine appearance: a smaller nose, a smoother nasal bridge, and a refined, slightly lifted tip.
