Hello. This is Oji-ko Gangnam & Plus, which has focused only on your nose for the past 16 years.
In this post, we will explain scar-free nostril reduction surgery at Gangnam & Plus.

These days, as standards for appearance have become higher, many people are making efforts to improve their looks. Even so, interest in plastic surgery has been rising in order to address areas that feel less than ideal. Among our facial features, nose surgery is especially popular. The nose sits at the center of the face and is one of the most prominent features, so when the nose looks wide and spread out, or has a bulbous shape, it can give a dated or dull impression. For that reason, it is worth looking into nostril reduction surgery in more detail.

What is nostril reduction surgery? It refers to a nose shape where the nostrils themselves are wide, rather than there being a problem with the nasal tip cartilage or skin tissue. Surgery to reduce the nostrils is called nostril reduction surgery.

The types of people who look into nostril reduction surgery vary widely: those whose wide nostrils make the nose look spread out, those who have a high nasal bridge but a spread-out-looking tip, and those who want revision nose surgery because there was no change even after a nostril reduction procedure.

When looking at the types of cases that need nostril reduction surgery, it may seem like a relatively simple procedure. However, because the surgery must be carried out while considering the individual’s skin condition, cartilage, and internal functional issues, it can be a highly difficult operation. Therefore, for those looking into nostril reduction surgery, it can help to carefully check whether the medical team has strong anatomical knowledge of the nose, whether they have abundant relevant experience, whether equipment is available to accurately assess your nose, and whether aftercare can be reliably guaranteed.

At Oji-ko Gangnam & Plus, in order to provide safe and satisfying nostril reduction surgery, we accurately check each patient’s nasal condition through preoperative 3D-CT scans, internal endoscopic imaging, various allergy tests, and internal nasal function tests. Based on the extracted data, we establish a plan and determine the method and materials before proceeding with surgery.

The surgical method for nostril reduction varies depending on the individual’s skin condition, cartilage condition, and nasal bone position. Broadly, surgery is classified into three methods: Anplus scarless nostril reduction, non-incisional nostril reduction, and incisional nostril reduction.

The Anplus scarless nostril reduction surgery method is used when the nostril skin tissue is not thick. It corrects the overall nostril size by making a minimal incision in the skin below the nose.

The non-incisional nostril reduction surgery method is applied when the skin tissue is thin and the nostrils are only slightly spread. It corrects the nostril size by using a simple method of tying both nostrils together.

In the case of incisional nostril reduction surgery, it is applied when the skin tissue is quite thick, and it corrects the overall nostril size through a lateral incision. Because the advantages and disadvantages of nostril reduction surgery differ clearly, it is important to proceed with the method that is efficient and suitable for the individual. If surgery on the nasal bridge and tip is also performed when needed, the improvement in nose shape may be more clearly visible, leading to greater satisfaction.

At Oji-ko Gangnam & Plus, Director Yoon Hyun-cheol personally handles everything one-on-one, from consultation about nostril reduction surgery to surgery planning, performance, treatment, and follow-up care, so you can receive high-level medical service from before the surgery through aftercare.

The aftercare provided after nostril reduction surgery includes an after-sales service system guaranteed for one year after surgery, as well as a surgical responsibility guarantee system in preparation for any situation that may arise, such as postoperative pain, inflammation, or dissatisfaction with the result. Those who have the Anplus membership card can receive aftercare benefits at any time.
