Hello, this is BT Plastic Surgery 🥰

After rhinoplasty, some people experience a condition where the nostrils become very visible from the front as time passes.

This is often described as a “upturned nose” or a “short nose.”

Although the nasal bridge is high, the nasal tip is turned upward, so the facial impression can often look somewhat strong or artificial.

In such cases, the key to revision surgery is to 충분히 lower the length of the nose

while restoring a natural line.

Why revision surgery was done with no implant + autologous rib cartilage

When artificial implants used previously (such as silicone or Gore-Tex)

remain in place for a long time in a condition where the skin is thin or the tissue is weak,

an upturned nasal tip or excessive nostril exposure can occur.

Autologous rib cartilage uses part of the patient’s own rib,

so it can provide strong support,

and because no implant is used, a more natural and stable result can be expected.

✨Surgical Points✨

Nasal tip lengthening

– A new central support structure for the nose is created with autologous rib cartilage to naturally extend the nasal tip downward.

Correction of an upturned nose

– The proportions of the columella and nostrils are adjusted to reduce nostril exposure seen from the front.

No-implant nasal line design

– Because the nose is connected using the patient’s own tissue without an implant, the feel is soft and there is almost no foreign-body sensation.

Changes after surgery

The nostril exposure visible from the front has been reduced,

and the facial impression has become much softer and more natural.

Also, from the side view, the nasal tip is no longer overly upturned,

and a smooth curve from the forehead to the tip of the nose has been created.

Because the procedure was performed without an implant,

a natural nasal tip shape and stable durability could be secured at the same time.

In many cases, the reason satisfaction was low after the first surgery is not simply a matter of “height,”

but because the structural balance of the nose had been disrupted.

In revision surgery, it is necessary not merely to replace the implant, but

to redesign the overall framework and soft tissue of the nose.

The surgery takes about 1 to 2 hours,

and you can go home right away without being hospitalized. Gangnam rhinoplasty specialist
