The nose is located at the center of the face and is an area that influences the three-dimensional appearance of the face.

Because the overall impression of the face can vary depending on its shape and height, thorough consultation with an experienced specialist is important for precise correction and a high level of satisfaction.

These days, most makeup videos focus on youthful-looking makeup techniques that make the midface appear shorter, such as tips for shortening the midface.

A short midface has become a new beauty standard.

When the distance from the eyebrows to the tip of the nose exceeds one-third of the total length of the face, it is considered a long nose. A nose with a drooping tip is called an arrow nose.

An arrow nose not only makes the face appear longer, but can also cover the philtrum and make it look shorter, creating an older-looking impression.

When smiling, the arrow nose may become more prominent and give the face an unnatural appearance. This type of nose tends to make the face look older, dull, or droopy because it lacks three-dimensional definition.

It may also reduce the overall three-dimensional appearance of the face. Improving a long, drooping nose tip can help create a more refined, youthful-looking face, which is why many people are visiting us with an interest in long nose and arrow nose surgery.

Today, we will look at how this type of nose can be improved, including its causes, surgical methods, and recommended candidates :D

Features of Long Nose & Arrow Nose Surgery at DM Plastic Surgery

In cases involving greatly developed septal cartilage, the septal cartilage can be appropriately reduced and corrected to create a much younger and brighter impression.

DM Plastic Surgery Long Nose & Arrow Nose Surgical Methods

Although the specific cases may differ, long nose and arrow nose surgery share the goal of lifting and raising the drooping nose tip while shortening the length of the nose.

To improve the drooping nose tip while creating proportions suited to each individual’s face, it is advisable to consult a specialist with extensive clinical experience.

At DM Plastic Surgery, a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive expertise establishes a personalized plan following a thorough consultation and performs the surgery directly.

When the septal cartilage has grown downward and become elongated, the alar cartilage may droop along with it. In such cases, part of the end of the septal cartilage is removed, and the position of the alar cartilage is rotated upward and fixed.

When the alar cartilage supporting the tip of the nose droops downward, making the tip appear lower, the alar cartilage can be reduced and fixed to the septal cartilage to raise the nose tip and create a more attractive nose.
