Does massaging your nose really make it straighter?

A strong nose can make our facial features look more standard, but the shape of the nose is not something we can decide. Although many plastic surgery techniques can allow us to have the nose shape we want, the risks involved are not something everyone wants to bear. Moreover, nose plastic surgery is expensive, so massage is used to make the nose straighter. So, can massaging your nose really make it straighter?

Massaging your nose can make it firmer. The specific method is as follows:

Use the middle fingers of both hands to press up and down along the nasal bone from the depression below the eyebrows to the top of the nose wing (note that it is not along the contour of the nose, but pressing on the bone of the nose). When you first start pressing, don't use too much force, just feel a sense of pressure. Press for 1 minute.

When you first start pressing, don't use too much force, just feel a sense of pressure. Press for 1 minute.

Continue using gesture 2 but move it down a little bit so that the joint of your thumb is on the bridge of your nose. Then use the strength of your thumb to pinch the bridge of your nose and lift it outwards with force. The speed is faster than 2. At this time, the force should be as strong as possible and it is best to feel pain (it doesn’t have to be this strong. It depends on each person’s sensory tolerance. I am relatively tolerant of pain.) Press for 2 minutes. (My nose bridge usually turns red after doing this step)

Without changing the posture, quickly make up and down straight line movements along the contour of the nose (1 is pressing on the bone, 4 is beside the bone), similar to the way blind massage parlors outside like to push up and down very quickly beside the bridge of the nose when they get a facial. It feels like scratching your nose. Press for about 30 seconds. Then return to position 1 and slow down the pressing speed. Return to position 1 and press for another minute.

The posture is the same as 2. Use the force of your palm to pinch the bridge of your nose. The difference is the side that your nose is tilted to (for example, my nose is tilted to the right, so I use my right hand to press and keep my left hand still). Press the tilted part inward with force. The direction is about 45 degrees. It is not just simply parallel but should be slightly tilted downward to be symmetrical.

Press hard and hold for a few seconds, then press again and stay still for a few seconds, and repeat this process. Note that the force should be even, and it is best if the force is painful. Press for 2 minutes.
