When taking photos with an app that naturally corrects your appearance,

if you forget and take the picture with the default camera,

it can feel strange that, even though it is clearly me, it somehow does not look familiar.

If only a small change could make the face in the photo app

become my true face, there are people who visit a plastic surgery clinic for that reason.

Among these, one of the most common procedures is

nose tip surgery.

A round bulbous nose is said in physiognomy to bring good fortune, but in everyday life

it is often an obstacle to creating a refined image.

As a child, it may be described as cute,

but as adults, many people want to change from a bulbous nose to a more refined impression

through nose tip surgery.

A bulbous nose refers to a nose whose tip and nostrils are round and blunt compared to the width of the bridge.

Because of the thick fatty layer,

the nose appears wide and flat,

and many people feel it as a complex because it seems dull and unfashionable.

Outwardly, bulbous noses may all look similar,

but when the condition is examined closely for nose tip surgery,

the causes of the bulbous shape are all different,

so the surgical method also differs.

Among the bulbous nose types that require nose tip surgery,

if the tip cartilage is large,

part of the cartilage must be trimmed to reduce its size.

And if thick fat is present,

nose tip surgery is performed by removing the subcutaneous fat,

refining the blunt-looking line.

In some cases, the cartilage at the tip is not only large

but has also spread outward as it separates.

In that case, while trimming the shape to reduce its size,

the ends of the cartilage are gathered and sutured together so the cartilage becomes smaller

and is brought toward the center, creating a slim and elevated nose shape.

Even if the fat is not thick or the cartilage is not large,

a low nose tip can still make the nose look bulbous.

In such cases, nose tip surgery can define the line

and increase the height to create a slimmer shape.

Even if the shape is called the same bulbous nose,

it is important to accurately assess the current condition

through diagnostic tests and consultation,

and then proceed with surgery.

Each person's face differs not only in shape,

but also in the placement of the facial features,

and even in the length of the nose and the ratio of the nostril shape,

so testing must be done for each patient,

and nose tip surgery should be performed by designing the nostrils and nasal dome with the patient's preferences in mind.

In general, a bulbous nose is often seen together with a low nose.

Therefore, it is recommended to create an overall plan so that, at the same time as nose tip surgery,

the bridge of the nose is also addressed to create a beautiful line.

There are trends in plastic surgery too,

so some people visit the clinic and show photos or videos of celebrities they have had their eye on.

However, because the proportions, position, and shape of another person's face are all different from your own,

rather than following a trend,

it is more important to find the line that suits you.

When planning the line, it must not only look beautiful from the front,

but also be designed so that, from the side, it flows naturally in an S-curve

from the forehead to the chin.

If you ignore all of your own features and proceed with a design that only follows trends,

the likelihood of ending up with a less satisfying result is higher than expected.

Also, because trends fade over time,

even if you like the result at the time,

a day may come when a nose that was designed in an unbalanced way feels unattractive

or even looks old-fashioned.

At that point, revision surgery can be used to solve the problem,

but the risk is higher than with the first surgery,

and there is also a greater chance that it will not lead to the desired result,

so from the beginning, it is better to proceed with a design that is harmonious with your face.

In the end, what matters is figuring out

which line suits you.

The nose is not only an essential organ for breathing,

but also a part located at the center of the face that has a major influence on creating dimension.

That is why, if it is blunt or low,

the impression can become dull, causing stress.

To escape such a situation and find a line that suits you,

it is advisable to visit a doctor with abundant clinical experience.

When choosing a plastic surgery clinic,

one option is to have surgery at a lower price through an event promotion,

but more importantly, the key step is to check how well the clinic can highlight your strengths

and complement your weaknesses.

In particular, the role of the surgeon is very important.

Even when using the same equipment,

it is natural that the outcome will vary depending on who performs the procedure.

Moreover, since this is surgery on the nose, which must also function properly,

you should consider checking the surgeon's skill as essential.

If you find a good doctor, it is also recommended to check whether that doctor personally handles everything one-to-one,

from consultation and examination to systematic testing, surgery, and aftercare.

You should visit a place that treats patients responsibly from beginning to end,

not just a place that only performs the operation,

so that the likelihood of problems such as side effects is reduced.

Of course, if problems arise after choosing a low price,

you may be able to seek improvements through revision surgery,

but when a problem occurs at the center of the face,

it is not only a financial issue but also a major source of stress,

so it is better not to experience it if possible.

Also, even if revision surgery is performed,

the chance of achieving the desired design is not high,

so it is advisable to find and visit a clinic that will do its best for you from the very first surgery

and achieve a good result.

As you may have noticed while looking through various reviews,

nose surgery has the advantage of allowing you to feel a dramatic change,

but because it is an area where side effects can occur often,

caution is necessary.

It is a complex surgery that must be approached with an accurate anatomical understanding

of the structural aspects,

and because even a slight change in the line can greatly alter the overall impression,

it is a procedure in which the surgeon's skill is especially emphasized.

For that reason, the surgeon's expertise is even more important,

and I would like to emphasize that checking whether the medical staff have abundant clinical experience is essential.

If the nose tip is round and blunt, if the nostrils are wide and the tip is flat,

and if the skin tissue and fat of the nostrils are thick,

or if the width of the nose tip is relatively wider than the width of the nose,

all of these are types that can be improved through changes to the nose tip.

Improving a round and low nose

can open up the possibility of changing to a more refined and urban image.

If you have been stressed by a blunt nose,

I hope you will meet a clinic that can help compensate for your weaknesses

and experience a positive change.

I hope that your days are always filled with happiness,

and I wish you success in reaching your goals exactly as you want.
