The nose in the mirror VS. The nose in the photo

Have you ever noticed that your nose looks different in the mirror than it does in photos? You’re not imagining it.
This happens because the mirror shows an image you’re used to seeing every day. A camera, on the other hand, depends on several factors, such as distance, lens type, angle, and lighting.

That’s why, especially in selfies, the nose can appear larger or different from what it actually looks like.

This is one of the reasons why a rhinoplasty evaluation should never be based on just one photo. Planning needs to take the entire face into account, from different angles and proportions.

At the end of the day, what matters most is not how your nose looks in a specific picture, but how it harmonizes with the rest of your face.
