Although, first of all, the organ that occupies one third of the face must perform its function efficiently: deliver air in the required volume to the body, warm the air in winter, moisturize in summer and trap pathogenic organisms on the mucous membrane. But patients at plastic surgery clinics are primarily concerned about the external characteristics of the nose. A hump, an upturned, downturned, forked tip of the nose, large nostrils, very long or, on the contrary, short, potato-shaped or pointed - clients want to remove these features of the organ, and in return get a classic antique profile or a beautiful curved bridge of the nose. Surgeons, artists and makeup artists call an ideal nose that has:
- the width is no more than the longitudinal section of the eyes;
- the wings do not extend beyond the vertical lines drawn along the inner corners of the eyes;
- length equal to a third of the face.
Angelina Jolie, Natalie Portman, and George Clooney have this ideal facial feature. Photos of these celebrities are an example of an ideal profile and the dream of most clients who sign up for rhinoplasty. Although an experienced surgeon will select for a patient who wants to reduce the nose, the length, shape of the tip and wings, taking into account not only mathematical proportions, but also general facial features and type.
It is possible to achieve a perfectly beautiful profile with a lifelong effect only with the help of rhinoplasty. During open or closed surgery, the surgeon works with cartilage, connective tissue and skin to create the perfect nose. Some features of the nose (hump, drooping nose, asymmetry) can also be corrected with filler injections, which will give a temporary effect for 1-2 years, depending on the drug. But there are clients who are afraid of surgical and injection interventions and are afraid of the recovery period. They can try to visually reduce their nose using makeup or special exercises. True, unlike rhinoplasty, such profile correction will need to be carried out daily, spending up to 20 minutes of time.
The ideal nose according to Leonardo da Vinci
The Italian scientist, artist and scientist in the 15th-16th centuries gave the most complete idea of the model of perfect proportions of the face and body. He devoted a number of studies to this topic, drew sketches and drew conclusions about ideal proportions. A feeling of harmony appears if the figure is based on symmetry and the principle of the golden ratio. This principle is that the human body is composed of components that stand in a certain relationship to each other and to the whole.
To measure the parameters of the nose and check the principle of the golden proportion, you will need a facial profile and measuring instruments: a ruler, a pencil and a protractor.
The parameters of the nose become ideal if its length corresponds to one third of the height of the face, and the height of the tip is equal to two thirds of the back of the nose.
Jodie Foster
The actress's filmography is impressive. She has many awards. She also acts as a director and producer. She has two sons, but lately Foster prefers women. She even entered into a same-sex marriage. If Jodie behaves so boldly, it is unlikely that she will worry about her nose. And hers is not only large, but also asymmetrical. Despite this, Jodie is not going to resort to the services of plastic surgeons. Foster admits that they would rather talk about her ugly nose than about her unsuccessful surgery. For the actress, intelligence has always come first, not appearance.
How can you tell a person's character by their nose?
Nose length. Short indicates a person who is open, optimistic, flexible and friendly. Very long - characterizes an intelligent but capricious person. A long and wide nose is characteristic of calm, charming and economical people. A long nose indicates a conservative personality.
The shape of the nose and the character of people are interconnected. A straight nose indicates the owner’s honesty, energy and calm character, while a skinny nose indicates a person’s poor concentration. A potato nose is characteristic of slow, phlegmatic people. A person will have to work a lot with a narrow nose. If a woman has a small one, she is jealous.
Determining character by the tip of the nose:
- A round shape is characteristic of a successful person.
- The pointed tip indicates a treacherous, treacherous personality.
- An upturned nose characterizes a person with unstable sexual morals and unable to keep secrets.
- A full, convex and large tip of the nose is characteristic of a kind, hardworking, kind-hearted person capable of self-sacrifice.
- A split tip of the nose indicates suspicion and shyness of its owner.
Sofia Coppola
One can only envy the girl. We are, of course, not talking about the nose. In the past, she had a fairly successful career as an actress. Today, Sofia is an equally successful film director. Coppola's career is fine, and his personal life is fine too. The girl was married twice, she does not suffer from a lack of male attention. And she doesn’t consider her big nose to be something terrible at all, although plastic surgeons would recommend that she get rid of the hump and correct the tip of her nose. One of the correspondents asked her a not entirely delicate question regarding her nose. He asked why the girl didn’t get rhinoplasty, because she could afford it. Coppola replied that she would never cut off her “family” nose.
Female standard of beauty
The ideal nose of a girl has been studied by many scientists, based on an analysis of the faces of beautiful girls of ancient times and modern beauties.
In Ancient Egypt, the standard of beauty was a slender, graceful woman with a straight nose, big eyes and huge lips. In Ancient Greece, the standard of beauty was the sculpture of Aphrodite, who had a straight nose profile, large expressive eyes and a majestic posture. The Greek profile was emphasized by straight lines of the chin, mouth and nose, and a low forehead.
Modern research was carried out by American scientists under the leadership of Professor Omar Ahmed. They looked for the formula for a woman's ideal nose and came to the conclusion that its beauty depends on the angle formed by the base of the nose and the line connecting its tip to the lips. In a study of four thousand girls, a focus group and online users rated faces with noses ranging from 96 to 116 degrees. After processing the results, it turned out that the optimal angle was 106 degrees. The singer, famous model and actress Scarlett Johansson has such a neat, slightly upturned nose. It is with a nose like hers that girls want to see a plastic surgeon.
Now there is no standard of beauty. Individuality is valued. More and more often, European designers invite girls of atypical appearance to the catwalk.
Barbra Streisand
There is no person who has not heard of Barbara. She is called one of the richest singers. Streisand's appearance is not at all ideal, but this did not stop her from becoming successful. Although her mother was against Barbara building a career in show business. She considered her ugly and did not believe that she would succeed. But her daughter became world famous. Men adored the singer; she had many affairs. She always looked stunning. But Barbara’s nose is far from perfect. It is large, but the singer never wanted to adjust it. She likes herself the way she is. Now Streisand is 76, and probably the last thing on her mind is her nose.
What does the shape of a man's nose indicate?
According to scientists, the shape of a man’s nose speaks not only about his mental, creative and artistic abilities, but also about his sexual activity.
The most popular myth is that men with small noses have sexual problems, and those with large noses have problems of a sexual nature. However, there is no evidence of this.
Men with long noses are smart, conservative people. They value habits, tradition and family. It is easy to find a common language with men with short noses. They are friendly and optimistic.
People with a small snub nose are balanced, practical and energetic. Often they are the soul of the company and leaders.
More often than others, men with a fleshy nose or potatoes are unlucky in their personal lives. They are careful, hardworking and attentive.
Men with a hump on the nose are stubborn, calculating, and have a strong character.
The ideal male nose is straight. Such men are educated, straightforward, and love beauty. However, often personal life does not work out.
Do you always need to straighten your hump?
I know there are people who say: “Humpback is my feature.” Some celebrities are proud of the unusual shape of their nose. But still, trauma can hardly be considered an individuality.
Humps as a consequence of injuries lead to breathing problems, so it is necessary to straighten the septum and free up the nasal passages so that the patient can breathe deeply.
How to make a beautiful nose?
Nature has endowed man with an individual appearance. But what if there are flaws and need to be hidden? There are many ways to achieve image harmony and improve your appearance.
Let's look at some of them:
- With the help of makeup, you can visually enlarge or reduce different parts of the face. With a slight movement of powder and foundation, you can create the perfect nose for a girl.
- Using a hairstyle, you can emphasize your face shape and hide imperfections.
- Radical methods of changing appearance include plastic surgery. If a person has serious congenital or acquired defects, for example, curvature of an organ after an injury, then rhinoplasty will help cope with this problem.
Every person is unique. The idea of a perfect face and an ideal nose is subjective and changes all the time. By properly emphasizing your strengths, you can achieve harmony in your appearance and significantly increase your self-esteem.
Sarah Jessica Parker
Sarah is a famous American actress. Popularity came to her after the release of the TV series Sex and the City. She is married and quite happy. Although the woman was vilified many times, she was called unsexy and ugly. Sarah's appearance, of course, does not correspond to the ideal. Well, the actress’s nose gives no one peace of mind. It's called Parker's signature look, but many say it's ugly and ugly. However, Sarah knows about this. Otherwise, she would not have decided to undergo three plastic surgeries. Experts say that the work was performed by a first-class surgeon. The shape of the nose has hardly changed, it remains large, but has become much more graceful, the hump has disappeared. However, the star says that she has never had rhinoplasty, but photographs of the actress tell a different story.
PS Sophia Loren. The girl you can't live without
Carlo Ponti once suggested that a girl should have her nose shortened. She sharply refused with the wording that she was proud of the traits that nature and her parents gave her. As a result, she began to stand out from the rest of the girls and gained popularity. The girl's name was Sophie Scicolone... She is better known to us as Sophia Loren...
Actress Sophia Loren's consistently large nose
Scarlett Johansson
The cute blonde needs no introduction. Having gone through many films and showing her attractiveness in all its glory, Scarlett remains popular to this day. But they say that she still had rhinoplasty.

Penelope Cruz
This Spanish actress has also had a brilliant career. She starred in many films. Cruz won an Oscar; no other Spanish actress has received this award. She does charity work. She has a husband and children. Penelope is the embodiment of passion and sexuality, which is why no one pays attention to her nose. Meanwhile, it is quite large and asymmetrical. The actress admits this, she says that people are not mannequins to be completely symmetrical. But Penelope is clearly disingenuous. Just compare her photographs. The actress's nose has changed a lot. The bridge of the nose is now narrower, and the tip of the nose has been adjusted.
Winona Ryder
The beautiful actress finally decided to undergo rhinoplasty before filming the film “Edward Scissorhands,” where she played with her boyfriend Johnny Depp. Following the path of Angelina Jolie, Winona found an experienced plastic surgeon and performed a simple operation. But the question is: did the nose given by nature really bother her?

Anna Akhmatova
Anna is a Russian poetess. Quite a significant figure, her poems are read all over the world. Of course, appearance is not so important for a poetess, but in her youth Akhmatova was very pretty. Of course, she cannot be called a beauty. Anna's nose deserves special attention. She inherited it; her grandmother was Greek. The older she got, the more breed and personality she became. She had a very smart look. Men went crazy about her, and the men were more than worthy. The story of this woman once again makes it clear that the nose has absolutely no influence on one’s fate.
Kristina Orbakaite
The actress is the “owner” of the most famous nose in Russia. Thanks to her appearance and unusually large nose, Christina received a ticket to the silver screen. And away we go. For a long, long time the girl was tormented with advice and sent for rhinoplasty - and she gave in, but only for a light operation. Over time, Christina realized that her nose is her “highlight”. And today she is not at all embarrassed about her appearance.

Julia Roberts
That same “Pretty Woman” was a sex symbol 20 years ago, 10 years ago and remains so today. One of the most beautiful actresses in Hollywood has endless charm and indescribable charm. And her nose plays an important role in this stunning image. Not to say that it is too big - but it is definitely far from modern ideals. Or maybe Julia has the right to create her own ideals?
