What is an upturned nose, how many types, and which face shapes does it suit?
The upturned nose has won the hearts of many women with its naturally beautiful height, blending smoothly with the face. It suits all groups of people—whether aiming for a soft, gentle look or a sharp, striking one, this shape fits them all. So it’s no surprise that the upturned tip nose has become the most popular nose shape people are choosing nowadays.
In this article, we’ll take you through the secrets of the sloped, upturned nose—what makes it stand out, who it suits, and why it has become the most popular nose shape among many women.

What is the appearance of a sloping nose with a pointed tip?
The sloped nose with a projected tip is a very popular nose shape nowadays because it looks natural, suits a wide variety of face shapes, and helps the face appear more youthful. The bridge of the nose is moderately high, with a smooth slope starting from the inner corners of the eyes down to the tip. It’s not overly prominent. The tip of the nose is slim, small, and slightly projected. When viewed from the front, the tip appears softly rounded, which naturally gives the face a younger appearance.

How many types of sloping noses with a pointed tip?
- Teardrop sloping nose with a pointed tip
The teardrop sloping nose with a pointed tip is one of the most popular nose shapes. The bridge of the nose has a slight curve from the inner corners of the eyes down to the tip. The tip slightly protrudes in a teardrop shape, giving a natural look. This style is often suitable for people with oval faces or those who want a softer, sweeter appearance.
- Sloping nose with an upturned tip
The sloping nose with an upturned tip features a smooth and sleek nasal bridge without any ridges or overly sharp lines. It has a natural curved line running from the upper part of the bridge down to the tip. The tip is slightly lifted, adding more dimension to the face.
- Barbie nose with an upturned tip
The Barbie nose with an upturned tip has a slender and beautifully curved shape, resembling the nose of a Barbie doll. The tip is slightly lifted, giving a cute and sweet appearance. This nose shape is very popular in rhinoplasty because it resembles the iconic Barbie doll look.

Which face shapes suit a sloping nose with a pointed tip? How to choose the right nose shape to minimize revision surgery
The sloping nose with a pointed tip is one of the most popular nose shapes because it helps create a soft, natural, and youthful look. It is suitable for those who have issues such as a drooping nose, an asymmetrical nose, a bulbous tip, or a short nose. Generally, the sloping nose with a pointed tip fits all face shapes. However, to achieve the most beautiful and harmonious result, other facial features should be taken into consideration as well, such as:
Face shapes
- Round face: Suited for a nose that is slightly high with a slightly elongated tip, helping to make the face appear slimmer.
- Square face: Suited for a nose with a straight, prominent bridge and a sharp, narrow tip, which helps soften the facial features.
- Oval face: Suitable for all nose shapes; you can choose the style you prefer.
- Heart-shaped face: Suited for a moderately high nose with a slightly rounded tip, helping to balance the facial proportions.
Facial proportions
- Face length: For a long face, the nose should be moderately high with a slightly elongated tip. For a short face, the nose should be higher with a sharp, narrow tip to help make the face appear longer and slimmer.
- Face width: For a wide face, the nose should be more prominent to draw attention away from other areas, with a sharp, narrow tip. For a narrow face, the nose should be moderately high with a rounded tip.
- Personal preference: Most importantly, choose a nose shape that you like and feel suits you best.
However, the best rhinoplasty results come from consulting a specialist who will evaluate various facial features as well as individual preferences to design the most suitable and beautiful nose shape.

What techniques are available for shaping a sloping nose with an upturned tip?
- Nose Thread Lifting
Nose thread lifting is a technique that reshapes the nose using special dissolvable threads inserted along the nasal bridge to enhance the nose’s height, definition, and lift the tip without surgery. It is suitable for those who want a simple, quick nose reshaping procedure with minimal downtime. The advantages include no surgery and less pain, but the downside is that the results are not permanent. Thread lifting may need to be repeated every 6 months to 1 year.
- Nose Filler
Nose filler is a technique that reshapes the nose using hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers injected into the bridge, tip, or base of the nose to enhance height and definition without surgery. It is suitable for those who want to adjust their nose shape without surgery and with minimal downtime. The advantage is immediate results—you can see the changes right after the injection. However, the downside is that the results are temporary, as the filler gradually dissolves and requires repeat injections every 6 months to maintain the effect.
- Nose tip Botox
Nose tip Botox is a technique for reshaping the nose tip by injecting botulinum toxin into the muscles at the tip of the nose. It helps lift the nose tip. It is suitable for those who have problems with a drooping or long nose tip, or want to adjust the nose tip to look slimmer without surgery.
- Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty is a method of reshaping the nose to make it higher and more beautiful, matching the face shape. The surgeon will adjust the structure of the cartilage and tissues in the nose area. It is suitable for those who have structural nose problems, such as a flat nose, crooked nose, large nose tip, or who want to reshape the nose to be higher. The results of rhinoplasty are permanent.
