Fleshy Nose Shape

Your nose shape defines your personality. Each nose is unique and elegant in its own way. Among all the nose shapes, fleshy nose is the most prevalent in the world. It comprises about 25% of the world’s population.

Fleshy nose is often known as a ‘meaty’ or ‘fatty’ type of nose shape due to its plumpy and rounded appearance. In this article, we are going to have a look at all the features of fleshy nose shape.

• Nose Size: Fleshy noses are mostly larger and pronounced than other types. But, sometimes meaty noses may come in moderate or smaller size.
• Nose Structure: As the name suggests these noses have more soft tissue and fatty proportions than bones and cartilages.
• Skin: The overlying nasal skin appears thicker. Thick skin drapes loosely over nasal bony structure due to more connective tissue.
• Contour: Meaty noses have very soft and rounded contours. The nose doesn’t appear defined in its overall look.
• Nose Tip: The supra tip appears fuller. The angle between the nose bridge and the tip is not defined and the tip itself appears bulbous, rounder and unrefined.
• Nose Bridge: Bridge is prominent and somewhat wider. It can either be straight or have a small hump on its upper part.
• Nasal Septum: Cartilaginous septum between two nostrils is thicker and contains more soft tissue. Nasal turbinates also are fuller and fleshy. The air conducting pathway of the internal nose is narrow and may interfere with normal breathing.
• Nostrils: The alar base is wider and the nostrils are sometimes flared.
• Nose Profile: Usually nasal protrusion is prominent. Overall, the nasal profile appears voluminous.

What Causes A Fleshy Nose?

Nose shape is not an acquired but inherited feature. However, some factors that contribute to the fleshy nose shape are:

• Racial Factors: Most of the people from Asian and African ethnic ancestry possess rounder and fuller noses.
• Gender: Males tend to have fleshier noses as compared to their female counterparts.
• Environmental Influence: People residing in warm and humid climates tend to have fleshy shaped noses.
• Hormonal Changes: Some conditions like obesity, PCOS, hypothyroid or cushing syndrome adds to the weight of the body. This subsequently makes your facial features including nose chubbier and fleshy.
