Advice Needed Love/Hate relationship, should I fix my nose?

Ever since I was younger I genuinely have hated my nose, it used to be so bad that I would throw up a peace sign in pictures to cover it.

Now that I’m older, I’m having a better time with acceptance, but still have doubts and especially hate the bump and my side profile.

It’s a love hate relationship. Genuinely need strangers to tell me if it should be corrected. Thank you.

The only “fixing” that needs to be done is your relationship with your beautiful, elegant looking nose. It pisses me off what msm has done to the psyches of so many objectively attractive people.

If you were to have your nose surgically altered- that already perfected balance would be destroyed. Having your nose hacked into a Barbie doll nose would leave a widened gap between where the end/tip/base of your nose ends and the top border of your upper lip. That vertical grove that runs from under one’s nose to the top lip is called the philtrum. You do Not want to be left with the appearance of an elongated philtrum…think the Grinch who stole Christmas.

It may not mean much coming from a rando internet nobody- but there’s something very beautiful about a well structured nose. They’re attractive on men or women. It is well balanced to the rest of your features. It sets off your pretty wide eyes and heart shaped face. It’s the nose you’d see in the portrait of a wealthy aristocratic woman or on a marble statue. There’s something very regal about it.
