Hello,

This is VN Plastic Surgery.

The bulbous nose, often called a "meatball nose," is a nose shape with a round and blunt tip, and it is a type of nose that is mainly seen in East Asians.

Although it carries the positive meaning of bringing good fortune, it can also make a person look dull, so much so that makeup techniques for contouring the nose and covering the nostrils have become popular. For many people, it is also a source of concern.

If, in daily life, a bulbous nose lowers your confidence or leads to psychological distress, you may want to consider surgery.

Today, let’s take a look at bulbous nose correction, which helps improve a nose that appears dull.

What is bulbous nose correction?

As mentioned earlier, a bulbous nose has a round and broadly spread tip, which can give an impression of being unsophisticated or unrefined.

In such cases, through bulbous nose correction, it can be improved into an ideal nostril shape that matches the proportions of the face and the length of the nose.

If any of these apply to you, through VN Plastic Surgery’s precise and delicate bulbous nose correction, you can restore balance between the nose and the face.

Nostril reduction for bulbous nose correction How is it performed?

If there is not much tissue in the nostrils, but the nostrils are wide and make the nostrils look large, the surgery is performed by making an incision from the outside to the inside of the nostrils, and then bringing the nostrils together and suturing them.

If the area below the nostrils is wide and appears spread out, a thread is used to tie the area below the nostrils and pull it together, reducing the width of the nose and the size of the nostrils.

VN Plastic Surgery’s nostril reduction analyzes the type of bulbous nose and creates slim nostrils with the appropriate surgical method.

Some people may think that narrower nostrils are always better, but even surgeries such as nostril reduction should ultimately suit your own features to look natural and harmonious. That is why various factors must be carefully reviewed and checked, and the surgery should be performed with a nostril width that matches the patient’s current condition and facial proportions. VN Plastic Surgery’s nostril reduction naturally improves noses that are spread wide on both sides, transforming them into a neat and refined impression.

Since changing only the size of the nose does not guarantee the desired result, VN Plastic Surgery identifies the problem area, examines the cause and direction of progress, selects the surgical method suited to the type, and carefully checks the nostril proportions so they match the face.

Through these steps, we complete slim yet harmonious nostrils and a refined nose line.
