DISCOVER YOUR NOSE TYPE: GUIDE TO FACIAL BALANCE

What’s My Nose Shape?

How to Determine Your Nose Shape

When categorising a nose, aspects like the bridge, tip, nostrils and symmetry are key. Understanding these helps you identify your unique shape and proportions.

  1. Nasal Bridge: Is it straight, curved, concave, or flat? How high or subtle is it from the side?
  2. Nasal Tip: Does it appear upturned, rounded, pointed or slightly downturned? Observe the angle between your nose and upper lip.
  3. Width and Nostrils: Assess if your nose is narrow, wide, or balanced. Note whether the nostrils are flared, round, or oval.
  4. Symmetry: Look from the front—do both sides mirror each other in shape and size?

Common Nose Types

  • Roman Nose: A defined, slightly curved bridge giving a bold profile.
  • Button Nose: Small, rounded, with a subtle upturned tip.
  • Straight Nose: Even bridge with smooth contour and balance.
  • Snub Nose: Short with a lifted tip and gentle curve.
  • Hawk Nose: Prominent bridge that angles downward at the tip.
  • Nubian Nose: Wider nostrils and a tip pointing slightly downward.
  • Wide Nose: Broader bridge and flared nostrils giving strong definition.

Each shape carries unique character and beauty. Understanding yours can guide treatments for improved balance while preserving individuality.

Analysing Your Nose

A balanced nose aligns naturally with your facial symmetry. Lighting and camera angles can alter how it appears, so view from multiple sides for accuracy.

If you’re considering enhancing your nose shape or refining your profile, you can book a consultation at Dermamina London. During your appointment, our experienced practitioner will assess your facial balance and discuss personalised, non surgical options to achieve subtle and natural-looking results.
