All About Bulbous Nose Surgery

If You’re 고민 About Bulbous Nose Surgery, You Need to Know the Surgical Methods by Type image 1

In the past, when the tip of the nose was round and blunt,

people often used the term "bulbous nose"

to imply that it brought good fortune.

As time passed,

standards of beauty became more diverse,

and many people began to prefer a thin, well-defined nose.

Since the nose is the center of the face,

even a small change can influence

the overall impression of the face.

There is no exact definition of what a bulbous nose is,

but because there are various cases by type,

it is important to choose the surgical method that fits your own case.

There are several types of bulbous noses.

A nose tip that appears spread out because it is low

A nose tip that looks generally blunt because the skin is thick

Nostrils (alar base) that appear spread out because they are wide

These can be classified into three types. The surgical method also differs depending on the type of nose. As always emphasized, you need to identify your own nose type and proceed with the method that suits you best in order to achieve satisfying results.

A case where the nose tip is low and looks spread out

By tying together the cartilage on both sides that form the nostrils,

the nose tip can be made more well-defined.

If autologous tissue such as ear cartilage is added on top,

the triangular nose that had spread outward can become narrower,

transforming into a slimmer and more defined nose.

A case where the nose tip skin is thick

and the nose looks generally blunt

Or a case where there is a lot of subcutaneous tissue and the nose looks spread out

In these cases, making an incision in the nose,

removing the soft tissue and fat from the nose tip,

and lifting the bridge or the nose tip

can maximize the effect of a slimmer-looking nose.

A case where the nostrils (alar base) are wide and look spread out

This can be improved with alar base reduction surgery.

It is a surgical method that reduces the width by excising part of the wide nostrils.

There are also several methods for reducing the alar base.

Depending on each case, such as a wide alar base,

spread-out nostrils, or thick skin,

the method of improvement is different,

so a thorough consultation is necessary

to accurately identify your own type.

Because the causes of a bulbous nose vary,

please make your decision through sufficient consultation

with a specialist who has extensive surgical experience,

to determine what type of bulbous nose you have

and which surgical method is most appropriate.
