A Review of Nostril Reduction Surgery for a More Refined Look

Hello. We are OJIKO Hospital & Plus, where for the past 16 years we have focused only on your beautiful and healthy nose.

The topic introduced this time is a review of nostril reduction surgery.

When we consider rhinoplasty, there are various reasons. Among them, people whose nose bridge is not low but whose nostrils are wide, creating a bulbous nose shape, are often highly interested in reviews of nostril reduction surgery. In the past, a bulbous nose was seen as a favorable facial feature because it was thought to bring good fortune, but in modern times, a wide and spread-out nose shape draws attention to the nose, stands out, and can throw off the balance of the entire facial features, making the face look unsophisticated. For that reason, people may try to improve it to a more refined image through nostril reduction surgery.

What is nostril reduction surgery? It is a procedure that reduces the nostrils when the nostrils themselves are wide, rather than when the issue is with the nasal tip cartilage or skin tissue. Therefore, if you look at reviews of nostril reduction surgery, you can see that even nostril reduction alone can create a more refined and sharper image.

However, because the appearance of the nose can also change depending on factors such as the height, width, and length of the nasal bridge, it is important to undergo surgery using a method suited to you and a systematic surgical plan in order to achieve a satisfying review of nostril reduction surgery. Therefore, along with reviews of nostril reduction surgery, we recommend checking the condition of your own nose accurately before proceeding.

Cases in which nostril reduction surgery is needed include when the width of the nostrils is wide, making the nose look spread out and low; when the nasal bridge is high but the nasal tip looks spread out; and when revision surgery is needed because there was no improvement even after nostril reduction.

If you look at the reviews of nostril reduction surgery at OJIKO Hospital & Plus, the surgical methods can be broadly divided into three types.

Nostril reduction surgery methods

1. N Plus scarless nostril reduction

2. Non-incisional nostril reduction

3. Incisional nostril reduction

The first, N Plus scarless nostril reduction, is effective for many people in Korea because their noses tend to have characteristics typical of East Asians, and the nostrils are not so wide that an outer incision is necessary. With N Plus scarless nostril reduction alone, good results can still be achieved sufficiently. If the nostril skin tissue is not thick, this is a nostril reduction procedure that corrects the overall size through a minimal incision on the skin below the nose.

The second is non-incisional nostril reduction. It is used when the skin tissue is thin and only the nostrils are somewhat flared, and it is a corrective method that simply ties the two nostrils together. However, it can be said that the surgical effect is good only when the degree of nostril flaring is very slight.

Lastly, incisional nostril reduction is a surgical method used when the nostril skin tissue is quite thick, and it corrects the overall size through an outer incision.

Therefore, if you look at reviews of nostril reduction surgery, the advantages and disadvantages differ clearly depending on the surgical method, so it is important to proceed with the method that is right for each individual. If it is performed together with nasal bridge surgery, it can lead to a more satisfying review of nostril reduction surgery.

Lastly, another point to check along with reviews of nostril reduction surgery is that the nose plays an important aesthetic role, but it is also an organ responsible for breathing and smell, so it must be decided with greater caution. During surgery, care must be taken to ensure that internal function is not compromised. Since inflammation or cartilage deviation can lead to functional problems, we recommend choosing a place where the medical staff have strong anatomical knowledge of the nose and extensive experience.

At OJIKO Hospital & Plus, we firmly support aftercare so that your review of nostril reduction surgery can be a satisfying one. Not only do we provide a one-year free warranty service after surgery, but we also operate a surgical responsibility guarantee system in preparation for all situations that may arise, such as postoperative pain, inflammation, or dissatisfaction with the appearance.

This has been an introduction to a review of nostril reduction surgery that transforms the nose into a more refined image. We hope this article is of great help to those who want to improve their appearance due to wide nostrils. Thank you.
