What kind of nose is a short nose?

A short nose refers to a nose whose length is

short relative to the face,

or a nose with an upturned tip that exposes a lot of the nostrils.

It can occur congenitally because the structural framework of the nose is short,

and it can also appear due to contracture after nose surgery.

How is short nose surgery performed?

Cartilage grafting

If the nasal tip is upturned,

a septal extension graft using septal cartilage or costal cartilage is performed

to prepare a sturdy support column that can keep the alar cartilage from turning up.

Cartilage reshaping

If the alar cartilage is forced downward and fixed, excessive force is placed on the support column,

and over time it may turn up again.

All tissues holding the alar cartilage are dissected as safely as possible.

In particular, in revision surgery,

dissection must be performed with even greater care

to reduce tension when the nose is brought downward.

Cartilage reshaping + cartilage grafting + augmentation rhinoplasty After performing cartilage reshaping and cartilage grafting,

if more height is desired for the nose,

augmentation rhinoplasty is additionally performed,

with an implant inserted into the bridge

and autologous tissue inserted into the tip to improve the nasal line.
