Feeling stressed because of a short nose?

<Real rhinoplasty case at DM Plastic Surgery>

The shape of the nose is just as varied as the shape of the eyes.

Depending on its length, height, and shape, the nose sits at the center of the face, so it has a major impact on appearance,

Among them, the short nose, which is common in East Asians,

is often called a snub nose or pig nose and can easily give a rustic impression,

and because it disrupts the balance of the facial features, it is difficult to have a positive image.

At the same time, in physiognomy, it was also considered one of the nose shapes people dislike because it was said to let wealth leak away.

A short nose can result when the nasal bone or cartilage is small,

making the face look flatter by reducing its three-dimensional appearance.

In addition, it is important to determine whether the nose is upturned, with the nostrils highly visible from the front,

whether the alar cartilage at the nasal tip is turned upward,

or whether the nose is simply short in length,

and then perform the appropriate surgery based on the specific characteristics of the nose

in order to achieve clear improvement and highly satisfying results.

These types of noses can be improved by raising the low starting point of the nose upward using implants or autologous tissue.

Today, let’s take a closer look at the surgical methods for a short nose :D

Common short noses in East Asians

As mentioned earlier, a short nose refers to a nose whose length is shorter than one-third of the entire face and is upturned, causing the nostrils to be highly visible from the front, also known as a snub nose.

It also includes noses that have become short due to contracture, which is one of the complications after rhinoplasty.

For this type of nose, not only the height of the nose but also the problem of length must be improved together, and if only an implant is used without correction, it may become even shorter and look more upturned.

Because of this, it is one of the more difficult surgeries compared with other types of rhinoplasty.

If the alar cartilage at the nasal tip is pointing upward, the tip may look upturned and the nose may appear short in length.

In such cases, it can be improved using cartilage reshaping surgery.

After removing the upper part of the alar cartilage at the nasal tip and moving it downward for fixation, the height of the nasal tip can be lowered and the length can also be increased!

A short nose can look better too!

At DM Plastic Surgery, through sufficient consultation with specialists in eye and nose surgery who have verified expertise and know-how from extensive clinical experience,

we directly perform 1:1 customized rhinoplasty tailored to the individual's preferences and nose condition.

By accurately identifying the current condition and using the appropriate surgical method, clear improvement is possible, and we help improve the overall image by considering proportion, harmony, and angle to create the most ideal nose.

In addition, 3D-CT analysis allows for safer and more three-dimensional evaluation,

and we establish an accurate surgical plan by examining the internal structure, muscle layer, and skin tissue status that cannot be confirmed through a general consultation.

Short nose surgery methods by type

If the alar cartilage that forms the nasal tip is raised upward,

a part of the upper alar cartilage is removed through cartilage reshaping surgery

and the position is corrected by moving it downward.

If correction is difficult with the cartilage reshaping surgery mentioned above,

this surgical method increases the length of the nasal tip by removing part of the alar cartilage and performing septal cartilage grafting in between.

After correcting the short nose length with the two surgical methods described above,

this method corrects the length and height of the bridge and nasal tip using implants and autologous cartilage.

Since there are various methods, identifying the condition and problems of the nose is the most important part.

You can obtain highly satisfying results only when the procedure is performed with the surgical method appropriate for each individual,

and because clear improvement can be achieved, we recommend visiting our clinic and receiving a thorough consultation with a specialist who has extensive clinical experience.
