Seoul Nose Surgery: Short Nose Treatment Tailored to My Facial Proportions

Did you know that the length and proportion of the nose can make your impression or overall look feel slightly different?

These days, more age groups are turning to nose surgery for aesthetic improvement and personal satisfaction as awareness of these factors continues to grow.

There are many types of noses, but among them, a short nose can be a concern aesthetically because the nose appears short and the tip may be turned up, making the nostrils more visible. Sometimes, a short nose can also develop as a side effect after surgery, when the nose becomes shorter.

For those who are worried about a short nose, short nose surgery can improve the nose to match the proportions of the face, helping create a better impression and image and offering satisfying results. Today, at Merry Plastic Surgery Clinic in Seoul, we are introducing short nose surgery for patients concerned about a short nose.

Benefits of Short Nose Surgery

A short nose refers to a nose with an upturned tip or a nose whose overall length is short. From the side, the nasolabial angle may be similar to that of a typical nose, but because the nose itself is short, its proportion accounts for less than one-third of the face.

When the nose is short compared with the overall face, it can look unbalanced and negatively affect the impression. Short nose surgery can extend a short nose to the proper length in line with facial proportions and balance, helping improve it into a more natural-looking nose.

Good for these people!

✔ If you want a nose length and nose line that match your facial proportions

✔ If your nose is very short and turned upward

✔ If your short nose makes your face look flat and plain

✔ If your nose length is normal, but you are concerned about an upturned nose

✔ If you are concerned because the nostrils are highly exposed from the front

Short Nose Surgery PROCESS

At Merry Plastic Surgery Clinic in Seoul, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Hong Seong-taek performs one-on-one customized surgery based on extensive anatomical knowledge, experience with various nose types, and a broad range of surgical cases.

The nose length is appropriately extended to match facial proportions, and the overly visible nostrils are improved to help create a natural nose line that fits the face. By adding autologous tissue or silicone, the nose length can be naturally extended to suit the proportions of your face.

-Cartilage shaping surgery :

If the lower lateral cartilage at the nasal tip is positioned too high, the tip may look upturned and the nose may appear short. In such cases, cutting the upper part of the lower lateral cartilage and fixing it lower can bring the tip down and make the nose look longer.

-Cartilage grafting surgery :

If the columella is positioned higher than the alar rim, additional cartilage can be grafted between the septal cartilage and the lower lateral cartilage to lower the tip and make the nose appear longer.

-Cartilage shaping surgery + cartilage grafting surgery + augmentation rhinoplasty :

After cartilage shaping surgery and cartilage grafting surgery, if you want to raise the nose further, augmentation rhinoplasty can be performed additionally. An implant is inserted into the bridge of the nose and autologous tissue is inserted into the tip to improve the nose line.

Designing a satisfying nose shape and nose line

At Merry Plastic Surgery Clinic in Seoul, from consultation to surgery and post-operative care, the board-certified plastic surgeon and chief director personally oversees the entire process, so you can receive treatment with confidence. Using precise equipment such as 3D CT, we provide detailed surgical planning that considers the internal structure of the nose, helping improve it into a natural nose that is comfortable for breathing.

With 3D CT imaging and a 3D remodeling program, we three-dimensionally analyze the nasal skeletal structure, septal cartilage condition, degree of deviation, inferior turbinate, and other features that are not easily visible from the outside. This helps us identify the ideal nose line for each individual’s condition and support precise surgery.

At Merry Plastic Surgery Clinic in Seoul, consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive surgical experience takes into account the individual’s facial proportions and image, including nose height, angle, length, and width, to design a nose that naturally fits the face and is comfortable for breathing.
