Q. If I get nose surgery with a narrow space between the eyes, will the eyes look more sunken?

Hello. I am Kim Hyung-taek, the CEO surgeon of Kowon Plastic Surgery, who puts his heart into rhinoplasty.

Today’s question is from someone who is worried that if they have nose surgery with a narrow distance between the eyes, the eyes might look more sunken.

Q. If I get nose surgery with a narrow space between the eyes, will the eyes look more sunken?

I have never had eye or nose plastic surgery.

I want to get nose surgery, but I think the bridge of my nose is already somewhat high and the tip is low.. The lacrimal caruncle is visible from the front, and when I measured the distance between the inner corners of my eyes, it came out to about 32 mm.

It seems like the space between my eyes is a little too narrow, so if I get nose surgery, will the eyes look very sunken?

And is it okay to try nose filler first and then get nose surgery? If I’m going to have surgery, I’d rather just do it right away, but people around me say that since there is also a chance the surgery could fail, I should try filler first. Would that be okay? I looked into it, and they said that if a foreign substance is injected, it has to be removed again before surgery. I also feel a bit uncomfortable about that... What would be the best thing to do?

Our country’s average distance between the inner corners of the eyes is about 34 mm. So in your case, it does not seem like the degree of sunken-looking eyes is significant. Even if the bridge of the nose is raised through rhinoplasty, the skin in front of the eyes will not be pulled and cause the eyes to look sunken.

In particular, if the bridge height is already somewhat present, it is likely that the bridge would not be raised very much, so there does not seem to be a need to worry too much.

And since you are considering filler, if your case is like yours—where the bridge is present but the tip of the nose is low—filler would not be very helpful. If you are thinking about rhinoplasty, it would be helpful to make a decision about filler after consulting with a specialist at a plastic surgery clinic.

I hope you get a good result. Thank you.
