r/Noses

I finally love my nose and want zero rhino so celebrating that for sure!

If anyone’s curious I’m mixed and puertorican!

About a month ago I posted here because I was really struggling with how I felt about my nose. I honestly expected people to confirm all the things I was worried about, but instead I was met with kindness and reassurance. So thanks to everyone here, it genuinely helped pull me out of an insecure place 💕

I wouldnt say i hate my nose, but there is some insecurity thing about my nose from childhood that ive never truly shaken off.

I'm not a huge fan of my nose, but I've been toying with the idea of getting it pierced. I walked past a studio this morning and decided to get it done.

My deviated septum and nose tip have been bothering me for years. Can’t afford surgery right now and honestly I’m worried it’ll go wrong and make things worse. I also feel like my nose is projecting a bit too much, but I pretty much accepted that by now. I guess I’m wondering if the deviation looks as bad from an outside perspective as it does to me, because I’m hyperfixated on it
(REALLY uncomfortable to share the weird angle in the second photo with the world 😅 but I’m in need of a third party outlook)

I have BDD and one feature I’m focused on is my nose. Is it as bad as I think it is? 😢

Growing up in a predominantly white neigborhood, I used to try not smile with my teeth in pictures too much cause it made my nose fatter 😢 I'm so sorry little me! I wished it was longer and thinner, like the rest of my body 🙅🏾‍♀️

I don't worry as much now! I still have my off days but mainly love my squishy chubby nose and have no plans to change it. It takes a long time to remember that being different isnt always a bad thing, we dont need to fit a mould to be attractive (even though I often get into negative thought spirals still and am super far from being perfect I still love a nice smoothing filter, trying to be better with that), I've definitely learned to embrace my nose and my features that come from my beautifully mixed background. Thank you Grandma for my nose. I love you, I miss you 💗🌹🌷❤️

It’s me— sorry to post again! I had many positive responses to my last post, and a negative comment got removed from a mod, which all meant a lot to me! Love you all lots🫶 also, shoutout to the person that said, in response to calling my nose a beak, “birds like us are meant to soar”! I love that, and think it’s so badass.
I definitely looked better in the last post, but felt like I was catfishing, and not showing my true side profile. There’s definitely a bump/convexity, which wasn’t easy to see with my last post! It also gets more prominent when I smile.
I am in the works of therapy, and even just limiting negative/rhinoplasty social media has helped tremendously. I’m also supposed to do positive affirmations about my nose (and appearance in general), which I’m not brave enough to do yet. But I will get there! So many words, I know. Just wanted to spread positivity! I love all of the different & beautiful noses on this sub, and all of the positivity :)

Okay. I have to give 50$ tomorrow to keep my consultation for april 2027 which will be 100$ then.

The nose job would be 16 to 17 000 CAD without tax but by the time I have my surgery it will likely be higher said the admin person.

I am just not sure if it's worth it. I think I might have a deviated septum and breathing is difficult when I do cardio, I even sometimes get a fake panic attack from the lack of air VS effort. My bump is also bothering me and it does a soft c shape with the tip of my nose when I smile. It was not like that when I was younger but I got trauma on it and nose keep on growing so here we are.

What do you guys think?

I’ve been trying really hard to learn to love my nose as it is. But seeing an edited version of what it could look like after rhinoplasty has been surprisingly painful, because it looks like everything I’ve wanted for so long. I genuinely don’t know whether the difference I’m seeing is significant enough to make surgery worth considering, or if I’m viewing my nose through an overly critical lens and the change isn’t as dramatic in reality as it feels to me.
