Explanations of Facial Features Involving the Nose

The nose consists of several features. The bridge of the nose is similar to the ridgepole of a tent that holds up the skin of the nose. The nasal wings are the fleshy appendages that form the outside of the nostrils. The septum separates the two nostrils. The tip of the nose is the most anterior part of the nose.

• Small nose - nose is especially tiny relative to the face
• Large nose - nose is especially big relative to the face

• Chiseled nose - the nasal wings are pronouced and stand out from the nose
• Aqualine nose - the tip of the nose projects forward and down, curving the septum

• Straight profile - the bridge of the nose is flat in profile
• Convex profile - the bridge of the nose is curved out in profile
• Concave profile - the bridge of the nose is curved inwards in profile
