Is it possible to shape the nose at home without plastic surgery?

(tiktok)

Is it possible to shape the structure of the nose without plastic surgery?

The simple answer is no, but there are so many people who believe that it is indeed possible - that experts had to intervene this time and try to convince the easily influenced young crowd to drop the idea.

According to an expert in cosmetic surgery, the methods that TikTok influencers offer to change the size and shape of the nose through daily exercises and massages do not work and even cause damage.

Before we tell you what his reaction was, here is a bit about the strange trend that you may have missed. The pioneer on the subject was Peta Prior, a successful Australian YouTuber and the founder of the Facerobics gym for facial exercises. She shared a video entitled "How to reshape your droopy nose and give yourself a nose lift" that has received more than 4 million views. On her TikTok channel you will find a variety of other nose shaping videos that she says definitely help to change it.

this is how it all began:

Many shared her video alongside the hashtag #nosereshaping which has garnered more than 6 billion views.

Peta was joined by "face yoga" expert Kokofaceyoga, who has half a million followers on TikTok - and she also claims that she can sculpt and shape the perfect nose with this method.

In one video that has garnered more than nine million likes, she suggests pinching your nose for five seconds and repeating it five times a day to shrink it.

A video by trending user @danielaa_ces demonstrates three simple steps to shaping the nose, encouraging followers to pick up the nose, pinch the bridge and then widen the nostrils.

This action, according to her, must be repeated 50 times a day.

All the methods popularized online claim that it is definitely possible to change the shape and size of the nose without surgery through a routine of daily exercises and massages, but Dr. Mark Ho-Assui, a cosmetic surgeon at Karidis Clinic, warned people not to believe the trend. He told the MIRROR: " The shape of the nose is determined by the underlying cartilage and bone.

The muscles on the nose are mimetic and the movement can create a 'rabbit line' on the side.

'Rabbit lines' refer to the fine lines that appear on either side of your nose when you wrinkle it."

A plastic surgeon reacts with astonishment:

He added: "Like many types of facial wrinkles, rabbit lines are caused by repeating certain facial expressions. It is highly unlikely that such activity will cause the tip to rise or the nostril to narrow. Excessive stretching is possible just as rings are used to stretch the neck in certain cultures or for widening Ear piercing".
