Nasal Bridge Height

Home » What is Beauty? » Nasal Bridge Height

Leighton Meester's nose has excellent bridge height that is well-proportioned to her face.??It’s not just the shape and size of your nose that you need to consider:  it’s also the bridge height.

If your bridge is either too high or too flat, it may overshadow or downplay the look of your other features.  The nose should begin at a point opposite the blink crease, best known as the nasal bridge.  The nasal bridge is all-important, and should be approximately 1 – 1 ½ centimeters high from the flat plane of the face.  A beautiful nasal bridge is straight, narrow, and should end with a tip projection that is neither downturned nor blunted, but projects off the face with graceful, elegant detail.   This produces a nasal profile that is attractive, so that from any view, the nose’s angle and contour are aesthetically pleasing.  Dr. Weintraub employs many different techniques that he has mastered in his two-plus decades of expertise in performing rhinoplasties.

Dr. Weintraub’s Viewpoint:  Leighton Meester

Leighton Meester has an engaging, energetic face anchored by a straight profile.  Her nose has excellent bridge height that is well-proportioned to her face. Cosmetic procedures to achieve this look could include a rhinoplasty that balances the face with straight structure continuity.

Dr. Weintraub's opinions should not be taken as fact or medical advice, nor has he necessarily treated this celebrity.
