I. INTRODUCTION
Ultimately, you're going to have to utilize a good majority of these to see significant change if you were cursed with a Jew hook like mine, in which you probably were.
II. PHYSICAL MECHANICS
➔ CARTILAGE REMODELING & STRUCTURE ➔
➔ CARTILAGE REMODELING & STRUCTURE ➔
In this section, we're primarily going to be working on straightening the nose through cartilage reshaping.
CRITICAL DISCLAIMER: Before we head into this, if your nose is extremely crooked due to bone and not cartilage, don't expect magic from this section. You can still smooth it out a bit, but if it's primarily bone, you won't benefit much.
__________________________________________________________________
THE ANATOMICAL BASE
Let's take a look at the nose anatomy first:
Taking a close look at the tip of the nose, we can recognize that it consists of two main pieces of cartilage: the lateral cartilage and the greater alar (large) cartilage.
Contrary to popular belief, you can ACTUALLY reshape cartilage through applied mechanical pressure. It's living tissue, and it responds directly to external forces. The reason it might be hooked right now could easily be due to poor habits, like constantly sleeping face-down on it.
With this routine, you're going to get a noticeable effect momentarily at first, lasting several hours. Over time, the body will adapt its structural alignment to match the pressure, forcibly straightening your cartilage and pushing it upwards.
__________________________________________________________________
THE MECHANICAL REGIMEN
- Frequency & Duration: Repeat this motion for a few minutes, 2–3 times every single day.
- Directional Vector: Push UPWARDS and OUTWARDS. Do not push inwards, downwards, or ANYWARDS FOR THAT FUCKING MATTER!!!
- Pressure Style: Every time you push upwards, hold the position for a few seconds every 30 seconds or so. Dynamic pressure consistently beats steady, predictable pressure.
WARNING: I beg, when you're doing this motion, do not do it on bone. Locate your cartilage first (near the lower end of the tip) and keep the pressure strictly there. Applying motion to other structural areas could create unwanted changes or just completely waste your time. Focus on that area ONLY.
Consistency is key with this. I promise it's worth it and it's not placebo—just stick to the protocol.

III. CHEMICAL INTERVENTION
➔ RETINOIDS, STEROIDS, LIPOCOCKTAILS & BOTOX ➔
➔ RETINOIDS, STEROIDS, LIPOCOCKTAILS & BOTOX ➔
I'm gonna split this into 4 distinct protocols:
1. Retinoids
2. Corticosteroids
3. Lipococktails
4. Botox
__________________________________________________________________
I. RETINOIDS
Tretinoin (Topical)
As a topical prescription cream, it accelerates skin cell turnover and gently refines the outer skin layer. By clearing pores and mildly reducing oil production, it can slightly smooth and tighten the skin texture on the surface of the nose.
Protocol: You're gonna want to start off with a small concentration first (0.05% for example), then work your way up on doses. Apply every other day at night and increase the frequency the more your skin handles it. If you feel any pain or irritation, skip a night.
Isotretinoin (Oral)
- This is a much stronger, oral medication that works systemically. It drastically shrinks the dense sebaceous (oil) glands and thins the nasal soft tissue from the inside out. This profound drying effect is what causes a visibly more chiseled or "smaller" nose appearance in individuals with thick, oily skin. We're basically going to be utilizing this as a vitamin A megadose.
- Protocol: To reap the benefits and avoid the side effects, we'll start off and end with 10mg every other day, until you reach an accumulative dose of 8g–10g.
- WARNING: Do not use any topicals or other retinoids when you're on this.
__________________________________________________________________
II. CORTICOSTEROIDS
Hydrocortisone
- A mild, often over-the-counter topical steroid that provides light anti-inflammatory relief. It temporarily calms minor surface skin irritation or redness on the nose but lacks the potency to alter deeper tissue swelling or thickness.
- Protocol: To avoid withdrawal symptoms and corticosteroid addiction, you'll have to cycle this. Use every other day for around 8 weeks, then drastically lower your usage. Preferably only apply it when you go outside to a big event (granted you get invited to those
).
Betamethasone
- The Effect: This is a significantly stronger, high-potency prescription steroid. Because of its extreme strength, medical professionals use it (often via targeted injections) to aggressively suppress severe fluid retention, collapse post-surgical swelling, and halt scar tissue formation during rhinoplasty recovery.
- Protocol: Only use this if hydrocortisone didn't budge, and use it for a much shorter duration of time.
APPLICATION ZONE LIMITS
__________________________________________________________________
III. LIPOCOCKTAILS
Getting increasingly difficult now.
Contrary to popular belief, your nose actually does have fat padding. However, truth be told, it's very minimal in most cases. I genuinely cage every time I see normies telling other normies to use aqualyx and kybella on their nose.
Lipococktails have a mediocre effect, which is exactly what we want for this procedure.
RISK ASSESSMENT: Bear in mind the risks before attempting—slight chance of necrosis, nerve damage/irritation, etc.
To acquire this, you're gonna order it online just like any other fat dissolver. Make sure the ingredients look something like Palmitoyl derivatives, L-Carnitine, and other fat-dissolving compounds.
Let's cut to the chase now.
Required Equipment:
- 1ml syringe, 27g needle
- Alcohol wipes, medical gloves, band-aids
- Lidocaine / numbing cream
- 1 lipococktail vial
INJECTION STEPS
Wash your hands and nose thoroughly, apply lidocaine, and wait 40 minutes. Wash it off completely. Find a clean, sterile environment, put your gloves on, and get to work.
- Dosage Control: Draw 0.1ml each time, and inject into each marked spot.
- Technique: DO NOT PINCH THE SKIN. Go in at a 15–30 degree angle and release.
- Total Volume: You should hit a total of 0.7–0.8ml by the end. (0.8ml if you do the green spot in the middle, but I personally don't recommend it).
Once you're done, put a band-aid on, and drink a fuck ton of water in the next 30 minutes. Give the swelling a few days to die down and bingo.
__________________________________________________________________
IV. BOTOX
Easily the most dangerous protocol here, and the easiest to fuck up. Proceed at your own peril. If you've never experimented with needles, I strongly recommend you get it done at a professional clinic instead. However, I will say this DIY route is around 4x cheaper.
For this section, we're going to be altering the width of your nose, particularly through a muscle called the dilator naris.
This muscle relaxes and contracts when you breathe—and quite frankly, plays an important role in how wide your nose is perceived.
The risks of messing this up are obvious: potentially altering your breathing for a couple of months, paralyzing the wrong muscle, causing severe asymmetry, you name it.
You need to carry out proper research on nasal anatomy, injection technique, and depth. Do not rawdog this. HOWEVER, I will say, it is extremely high ROI.
The results speak for themselves. Let's cut to the chase.
Required Equipment:
- Insulin syringes
- 0.05ml–0.1ml of Botox
- Alcohol wipes, lidocaine, medical gloves
INJECTION PROTOCOL:
Again, as per usual, clean your nose and hands thoroughly, apply a generous amount of lidocaine, and let it sit for 40 minutes. Wash the lidocaine off completely. Find a clean, sterile environment, put your gloves on, and get to work.
Mark your injection points with an eyeliner, pen, or anything that leaves a highly noticeable mark. You need to be 100% precise.
- Angle & Depth: Go straight in at a 90-degree angle intramuscularly. It will feel somewhat like a sore thumb, and it WILL hurt.
Dosage Breakdown (Per Side):
- 0.05ml: Low paralysis (probably won't notice a massive difference).
- 0.075ml: Medium paralysis (average baseline range, most guys inject here).
- 0.1ml: MAXIMUM paralysis (NOT RECOMMENDED unless your nose is extremely flared).
Initial results should be visible by the next day, with maximum alignment settling in after 3 months. The effects should last for around 3–6 months before you have to repeat the protocol, depending completely on your personal metabolic habits.
IV. VISUAL FRAUDING
➔ INSTANT COSMETIC DECEPTION ➔
➔ INSTANT COSMETIC DECEPTION ➔
Aside from all these long-term, permanent solutions, there is always a temporary, instant fix. This is a collection of DIY strategies that immediately give you the appearance you want, at the cost of being temporary. The risk of getting caught obviously comes with this, but who the fuck cares.
__________________________________________________________________
I. THE BAND-AID TAPE
Wrapping a standard band-aid closely resembles professional post-op nose tape. It gives you a temporary reduction in visual size while maintaining a completely natural appearance.
The Method:
- Step 1: Section your band-aid into custom thin strips and patches first.
- Step 2: Start by wrapping the thin edges of the band-aid tightly around the very tip of your nose.
Should look like this baseline template.
- Step 3: Proceed by wrapping up the rest of the middle sections, moving from the bottom to the top.
Final layout should match this sequence.
Apologies for the bad examples, I don't have a band-aid on me right now
This setup slightly upturns the tip and forces your nose to seem narrower. It's a cheap, easy, and completely immediate fix.

II. NOSTRIL LIFTERS
These are small plastic splints designed to be inserted directly inside your nostrils. They provide an instant upturned look, remain completely invisible from the outside, and reliably correct a droopy or hooked nose to a noticeable extent.

3. ADVANCED CONTOURING
Required Toolkit:
- Contour Material: Matte powder 1–2 shades darker than your skin tone. Always go for cool gray tones that accurately mimic real structural shadows—avoid warm bronzers.
- Brushes: A small, dense blending brush for maximum control.
- Highlighter: A matte or slightly shimmery powder shade that is 1–2 shades lighter than your natural skin tone.
The dark brown lines mapped on the sides represent your contour placement, while the focal marks at the tip of the nose dictate your highlighter placement.
The highlighter is usually placed as a sharp dot on the tip and a thin bridge line—think of it like drawing an exclamation mark (!). Choose your desired shape, and blend out the harsh edges thoroughly with the brush for the cleanest visual illusion.
Chemical changes typically take a while,
Compounds like retinoids and corticosteroids take a bit of time to effectively reduce the swelling and the size of your sebum glands.
ACTUAL physical structural changes like cartilage reshaping, while you get a temporary effect post routine, it takes a couple months to actually let it set in.
Lipococktail, botox, and other injections take around 1-2 weeks to completely settle in.
Makeup, bandaids and other tools are immediate. HOWEVER, they don't stick around.
Thanks, and good luck.
