The increasingly erect nose may be caused by various factors, and the following are several possible reasons:
1. Genetic factors: The shape of the nose is largely influenced by genetics. If both or one of the parents has a high nose bridge, then the children may also inherit this feature and gradually show it as they age.
2. Growth and development: During puberty and earlier stages of growth and development, facial bones and soft tissues undergo significant changes. The nose bridge, as a part of the face, may also gradually become more upright during this process. This is a normal physiological phenomenon, there is no need to worry excessively.
3. External factors: Trauma: After the nose is impacted or injured by external forces, it may cause displacement or deformation of the nasal bones, making the nose appear more upright. But this situation is usually accompanied by symptoms such as pain and swelling, and requires timely medical treatment. Rhinoplasty or fillers: Some people choose to undergo rhinoplasty or use fillers to change the shape of their nose for aesthetic reasons. These medical methods can make the nose look more upright, but they need to be performed in professional medical institutions and operated by experienced doctors. Other factors, such as facial skin sagging caused by aging and reduced fat in the back after weight loss, may also make the nose bridge appear more prominent to some extent. But these factors are not the main reasons for the nose becoming increasingly straight.
If the nose becomes increasingly straight suddenly, or accompanied by discomfort symptoms such as pain, swelling, and nasal congestion, it is recommended to seek medical examination in a timely manner to rule out the possibility of pathological changes. Meanwhile, for those who wish to adjust their nose shape for aesthetic purposes, it is recommended to choose a method that suits them under the guidance of a professional doctor.
