Nose Surgery and Facial Contouring Should Be Performed with Facial Center Balance in Mind for Higher Satisfaction

Nose surgery is one of the most common procedures among eye surgery and cosmetic surgery. That is how significant the nose is on the face. However, the typical nose shape of East Asians often has a low and broad bridge, with weak cartilage at the tip and a lot of subcutaneous tissue, so it is common for the bridge to be low while the tip is blunt and round.

Because of this, the East Asian facial feature of a low nose can remove overall dimensionality from the face, making it appear relatively flat, broad, and plain. For that reason, caution is needed when performing nose surgery. If surgery is done aggressively on this type of nose just to raise the bridge, it may result in a uniform and awkward shape, and you may end up considering revision rhinoplasty, so care is necessary.

How Should Nose Surgery Be Performed for Higher Satisfaction?

The nose is located at the center of the face, so it plays an important aesthetic role in balancing the entire face. Therefore, when planning nose surgery, the overall balance should be considered first, and a customized design should be carried out. Nose surgery can dramatically upgrade one’s appearance and is one of the most noticeable procedures after surgery, but making only the nose look pretty does not mean an ideal face is complete. It is important to remember that the relationship between the nose and forehead, the nose and lips, and the nose and chin must also be considered.

In other words, nose surgery should be approached as a type of full facial contouring procedure rather than simply a surgery to raise the nose, because it can enhance the contour effect of the entire face, restore dimensionality, and even make the face appear smaller overall. Therefore, the priority should be creating a nose shape that is harmonious with the face line and facial contour, balanced, and as natural as possible.

What Is the Ideal Nose Shape for My Face?

So, if we approach it from the perspective of facial contouring surgery, what kind of nose shape is ideal?

When performing nose surgery, it is important that the natural line descending from the forehead, the length of the nose, and the position and shape of the nasal tip all harmonize with the facial contour. Keeping this in mind is the key to improving satisfaction.

In female nose surgery, a lower face length of about 0.8 to 0.9 relative to the upper face is considered the most beautiful proportion. It is also important to properly adjust the line descending from the forehead, which determines the side profile of the face, and the nasolabial angle formed by the nose and lips so that neither becomes too large or too small. The angle formed by the lips and the columella is considered appropriate at about 95–100°, and the angle formed by the columella and the nasal tip is about 45°.

However, just as side effects caused by standardized surgical methods must be avoided, the ideal nose shape also varies from person to person, so caution is needed. In addition, to perform more natural nose surgery, it is important to remember that rather than relying on exact numerical angles, one should find the shape and angles that suit one’s own nose.

Another important point is understanding the latest nose surgery trends. Recently, the trend has been to emphasize the natural harmony of the entire face, as if little or nothing has been done.

There Are Separate Checkpoints for Male Nose Surgery

As the number of people wanting nose surgery has increased and nose surgery itself has become more common, many people now think of it as a very simple procedure. However, because the frequency of the surgery is high, the revision rate is also relatively high, so it is safer to think carefully and consider it thoroughly before surgery.

And in the case of male nose surgery, there is one more point that must be carefully checked.

It is important to understand that the success or failure of male nose surgery depends on understanding the differences from female nose surgery and reflecting men’s needs. This is because men and women differ in the desire and need for beauty, which should be pursued, as much as they differ by gender. In male nose surgery, satisfactory results can be achieved when the procedure is performed with priority given to preserving masculinity while improving any drawbacks that could reduce trustworthiness and likability.

It is also important that the key points of male nose surgery be applied differently. For men, the key points are a clean, straight bridge and a well-balanced nasal tip. Unlike women, men have a more prominent brow bone, so to enhance the T-zone, the bridge should be raised sufficiently and the tip should be extended so that the bridge line becomes straight. In other words, the focus should not be only on making the nose higher or raising the bridge.

Since the nose influences the balance of the entire face, it is also very important to consider perfect harmony with other areas such as the eyes, lips, and chin. Various elements such as the space between the eyebrows, the shape of the chin, and the shape of the eyes should be checked in advance to fit each individual precisely, and a process that presents a customized treatment method through perfect simulation is essential.

Therefore, it is safest to undergo surgery by choosing a board-certified plastic surgeon who can thoroughly understand each patient’s individual characteristics based on extensive clinical experience, with solid anatomical knowledge that allows them to provide an appropriate surgical method while continuously studying male bone structure and cosmetic surgery, and considering improvements in both the functional and aesthetic aspects of the nose.
