It's time to get out your ruler and measure some angles. In the before
picture, an imaginary line drawn from the front of his chin through the front of
his lips to the middle of the base of his nose points far forward, away from his
face. That same line, from chin through lips to nose, is much more
vertical in the after picture. With a projecting nose and a weak chin,
the face seems to "point" toward the nose, making the nose appear even more
prominent.

Questioner:
Can rhinoplasty fix my narrow and long nose?
How extensive of a procedure will it take to correct my nose? What options are there as far as shaping out there for me? What shape would compliment my facial structure?
(Questioner submitted photos)
Dr. Denenberg's answer: You are a somewhat typical candidate for a rhinoplasty
The operation wouldn't be more extensive than an "average" rhinoplasty, although I consider all rhinoplasties fairly "extensive."
I think most people, if they had your nose and were of a mind to change it, would consider lowering the bump on the bridge, narrowing the tip a small amount, elevating the tip up a small amount, and deprojecting the tip -- that is, bringing the entire nose back closer to your face.
