Hello.

This is Apgujeong Baba Plastic Surgery.

Today, we would like to introduce a real review video of autologous rib cartilage rhinoplasty uploaded to Baba Plastic Surgery’s official YouTube channel.

One of the things people most want to know when considering rhinoplasty is:

“Will it really settle naturally after surgery?”

“Can a bulbous nose or a hump nose also be improved?”

These are likely the questions on their minds.

Especially for a first rhinoplasty,

you naturally have to be more careful.

This video is a real one-month post-op review from a customer who underwent autologous rib rhinoplasty at Baba Plastic Surgery.

✅ Consultation for concerns about a bulbous nose and hump nose, first rhinoplasty

Before surgery, the customer in the video had concerns about:

A bulbous nose, with the tip looking broad and blunt

A low nose from the side profile

A nose that looked spread out, giving a cramped impression

A bulbous nose cannot be resolved simply by raising the nose.

The overall balance must be considered together, including the structure of the nasal tip, skin thickness, and the strength of the cartilage.

At Baba Plastic Surgery,

after 충분한 consultation on these aspects,

a surgical method suited to each individual is planned.

✅ What is autologous rib cartilage rhinoplasty?

The procedure performed for this review was autologous rib cartilage rhinoplasty.

Autologous rib cartilage means taking cartilage from one’s own ribs and using it as a material to build the nose tip or structure.

Autologous rib cartilage rhinoplasty can be an option because:

✔ It is one’s own tissue, so the possibility of rejection is low ✔ Its firm support helps maintain the nose tip ✔ It may be used when the nose tip needs to be lifted, as in a bulbous nose ✔ It may be chosen for revision surgery or cases needing structural reinforcement

In particular, when the nose tip appears spread out or when cartilage support is weak, using autologous rib cartilage can help achieve a more stable result.

✅ Key points in bulbous nose correction

Many people think bulbous nose rhinoplasty is simply a matter of “raising it,” but in reality, more than height alone,

The shape of the nasal tip

The support strength of the cartilage

Skin thickness

The proportions of the entire face

This harmony is far more important.

In this review, the customer also had a rounded, blunt nasal tip due to a bulbous nose, but it was possible to confirm that the tip was naturally refined through autologous rib cartilage.

✅ Bulbous nose correction methods

The surgical method for a bulbous nose varies depending on the cause.

CASE 01 When the cartilage is large

→ Remove part of the wide cartilage and bring the nose tip together

CASE 02 When the cartilage is spread apart

→ Bring the separated cartilage inward and suture it together

CASE 03 When there is thick fat/skin

→ Remove fat from the nasal tip and support the cartilage to refine the tip

In short, it is customized bulbous nose correction tailored to the condition of the cartilage and skin.

✅ One-month post-op changes, swelling, and recovery process

Rhinoplasty is a procedure that becomes more natural over time, rather than immediately after surgery.

In the one-month review, the customer also said:

The major swelling had mostly gone down

The line was settling in

The change was not excessive, but natural

In particular, even though it was the customer’s first rhinoplasty,

the biggest point of this review was that a line was created that was not 부담스럽지 않고 and matched the face well.

✅ The change in overall impression caused by the nose alone

The customer in the video said,

“Only the nose changed, but the overall impression of my face changed.”

Because the nose is located at the center of the face, even a small change can:

Make the image look clearer

Add a more refined feel

Change the overall impression
