A Look at a Short-Nose Rhinoplasty Review: A More Refined Nose

"I feel self-conscious about my short, upturned-looking nose."

This was the concern shared by a patient who visited our clinic during a consultation.

Many people think that a short nose can be corrected by simply raising the nasal tip, but this is not actually the case.

This is because the columella and nasolabial angle also need to be corrected together to create a harmonious result.

In this post, we will look at an actual short-nose rhinoplasty case and examine which aspects changed.

To create a refined nasal line, a short nose can make the mouth appear more prominent and the nose look upturned, disrupting the balance of the entire face.

However, since the issue is not simply one of length, our clinic adjusts the balance by establishing the nasal tip axis so that the columella, nasal alae, and nasal wings flow together naturally.

Before, Key Points

✔️ Upturned nasal tip

✔️ Insufficient columella exposure

✔️ Weak nasal tip support

Viewed from the side, the nasal tip was turned upward, which made the nose look shorter while the tip appeared round and gave a stuffy impression.

In addition, the columella was not sufficiently exposed, so the support of the nasal tip was not adequately expressed.

After 2m, What Changed

✨ Appropriate columella exposure

✨ Naturally adjusted nasal tip direction

✨ A completed line extending from the nasal bridge to the tip

With Ruho's short-nose rhinoplasty, the direction and length of the nasal tip were adjusted according to the proportions of the face, and the columella was formed, creating a stable nasal line.

The nose, which had appeared short, became more balanced, forming a refined line from every angle.
