Ideal Nose
An attractive nose complements the face
THE ART AND SCIENCE BEHIND SUCCESSFUL PLASTIC SURGERY

The ideal nose harmonises aesthetically and proportionally with the face.
Facial attractiveness is about proportion and balance. Understanding proportion enables a surgeon to improve not only the shape of your nose, but also the overall attractiveness of your face. Using this as a reference, the ideal nose, looked at from different angles, fits into a series of triangles. That is why the Nose Clinic uses theoretical triangles – one for each view of the nose – to plan the best individual results for our patients.
Creating proportion and balance from the ‘raw’ anatomy of a nose (the tissue, bone and cartilage) with surgery requires advanced training, experience, talent and skill; skills that ultimately make a difference between a disappointing and an attractive result.
While we encourage our patients to choose nasal surgery for their own satisfaction – not to please partners or friends – they often find that, after surgery, they don’t only enjoy new-found self-confidence, but that family, friends and colleagues react more positively towards them. We all strive, consciously or unconsciously, for beautifully balanced proportions! Click ‘Read more’ (to the right) for a detailed explanation on the ideal nose.
