Male Rhinoplasty

The masculine nose -- its width, length, and projection -- is very different from the feminine nose.

Upturned noses are rare, with a nasolabial angle between 90 and 95 degrees.

A slight hump or slightly concave nasal dorsum, along with greater width than in women but proportionate to the face, gives the nose a more masculine and virile appearance.

At the junction of the nose and forehead, the nasofrontal angle is also more closed in men, between 115 and 120 degrees.

The nasal skin is typically thicker, which unfavourably influences the possibility of achieving a nasal tip with strong definition.

Generally, the nasal bone structure is more substantial in men: this must be taken into account when planning rhinoplasty.

Achieving an excellent result in male rhinoplasty requires perfect technical knowledge specific to men, excellent facial analysis, and surgery without over-correction, to achieve a natural and harmonious result.
