Correcting a Hooked Nose to Escape an Aging Appearance

<Real DM Plastic Surgery rhinoplasty case>

The nose is located at the center of the face and is a feature that affects facial dimension. Because facial impressions can change depending on the shape and height of the nose, a thorough consultation with an experienced specialist is essential for a clear correction and higher satisfaction.

These days, when you look at makeup videos, most of them focus on tips for making the midface look shorter, including makeup videos that make the midface appear shorter, to the point that a short midface has become a new aesthetic standard.

If the length from the eyebrows to the tip of the nose exceeds one-third of the entire face, it is called a long nose. A nose with a drooping tip is called a hooked nose. A hooked nose not only makes the face look longer, but also covers the philtrum and makes it look shorter, which can give an aged impression. When smiling, the hooked nose can stand out even more and create an unnatural look. Such a nose reduces facial dimension and can easily look old, blunt, or drooping. In addition, it tends to lower the overall facial dimension, so improving a long and drooping nasal tip can help correct the face into a refined, youthful appearance. That is why many people visit us with interest in long-nose and hooked-nose surgery.

Today, we will look at how these nose types can be improved, including the causes, surgical methods, and who the procedure is recommended for :D

Features of DM Plastic Surgery’s Long Nose & Hooked Nose Surgery

Long noses and hooked noses are mainly caused by an overdeveloped septal cartilage, drooping nasal tip cartilage, and developed nasal tip muscles. Through sufficient consultation with a plastic surgery specialist with extensive clinical experience, a personalized 1:1 plan is established and the surgery is performed accordingly, which leads to high satisfaction among actual surgical patients.

In cases of a greatly developed septal cartilage, the septal cartilage can be appropriately removed and corrected, making it possible to improve the face into a much younger and brighter impression.

If you are considering hooked-nose surgery, finding a plastic surgery specialist with both sufficient experience and surgical skill is especially important, since this is a procedure that corrects the center of the face. At DM Plastic Surgery, we establish a personalized 1:1 plan through thorough consultation with a plastic surgery specialist, and we help improve the nose into the most ideal golden ratio while considering each person’s proportions and preferences.

With the know-how of our specialized medical team, the recovery period can be kept short and returning to daily life can be faster, which is why many people visit us with high satisfaction!

DM Plastic Surgery recommends this procedure for the following types of patients!

• People who are worried because their nose is unusually long compared to their facial proportions
• People whose nasal tip is long, making their impression look strong and aged
• People whose nasal tip droops and looks like a hooked nose

DM Plastic Surgery recommends long-nose & hooked-nose surgery for customers with these types.

DM Plastic Surgery Long Nose & Hooked Nose Surgery Method

Although the cases may differ, long-nose and hooked-nose surgery share the same goal of lifting and raising the drooping nasal tip while shortening the length of the nose. Therefore, to improve the nose into proportions that suit each person’s face while also correcting the drooping tip, it is best to visit a specialist with extensive clinical experience.

At DM Plastic Surgery, a plastic surgery specialist with extensive know-how establishes a customized plan after thorough consultation and performs the surgery personally.

If the septal cartilage has grown downward and lengthened, the alar cartilage also tends to droop. In that case, 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 nasal tip droops downward, making the tip look fallen, the alar cartilage is resected and fixed to the septal cartilage to raise the nasal tip, creating a more attractive nose.
