THE DAILY SNIFF

The same nose with and without Dilli

What does a Dilli look like when it is in place? These two close-ups show the same nose, first on its own and then with the nasal dilator in place.

Where does Dilli sit?

Move the circle all the way to the left to see the photo with Dilli. Look for the transparent bridge between the nostrils. Move the circle back to the right to reveal the same area without Dilli.

How we prepared the images

We cropped and aligned the two photos and adjusted the lighting for comparison. We used AI to retouch a few beard hairs around the nostrils. The photos show the nose from slightly different angles.
