In Turkey, rhinoplasty is one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries, combining advanced surgical techniques with aesthetic understanding to create the nose that best suits each individual’s facial features.
One of the most frequently asked questions about facial aesthetics is, ‘Does my nose suit my face?’ It is extremely important to achieve a natural appearance when determining the correct angles and dimensions and correcting deformities.
The ideal nose is not a universal form; it is natural and functional, varying according to the person’s facial structure, character and cultural characteristics. The nose should perform its breathing function properly and look harmonious with the face without drawing unnecessary attention.
What is the ideal nose shape?
The ideal nose design is created to perfectly match the face using golden ratio calculations. Measurements taken from different angles are used to create a nose shape that is balanced and aesthetically pleasing with the person’s face.
An ideal nose should be located in the centre of the face and its width should be equal to the distance between the eyes. In profile, the lengths of the forehead, nose, and lips should be in balance. The nose-lip angle is typically 90-100 degrees in men and 100-110 degrees in women. The nasal bridge should be straight, and the nostrils should be symmetrical with soft contours. Most importantly, the nose must fully perform its respiratory function.

The Importance of a Natural Appearance
Giving the nose its ideal shape is not enough on its own to achieve a natural look. In plastic surgery, the nose must be designed with sculptural precision to suit the person’s facial expression and characteristic structure. Facial expressions and features must also be taken into account, along with golden ratio calculations.
After the design, the success of the surgical technique is also very important. Today, rhinoplasty procedures are performed using both surgical and non-surgical methods. Thanks to closed technique rhinoplasty, aesthetic results can be achieved without any scarring.
Non-surgical rhinoplasty, on the other hand, uses methods such as Botox and fillers to correct the shape of the nose in an average of 15-20 minutes. This technique offers a quick and comfortable solution for patients who do not require surgical intervention.
