This Closed Rhinoplasty Korea case by Dr.Kang’s NoseLab features correction of a bulbous and depressed nose with columella lengthening and nostril asymmetry improvement. Using a fully closed approach, the patient achieved a balanced, natural nasal line without any external scars.


Closed Rhinoplasty Korea – Patient Background


The patient had a flat nasal bridge, a bulbous tip, and noticeable asymmetry between the nostrils.

The nose appeared short and rounded from the front view, and the columella was retracted, making the nostrils uneven.


Closed Rhinoplasty Korea – Surgical Plan


Dr. Kang performed a closed rhinoplasty focusing on symmetry and structure.

  • Lengthened the columella using septal cartilage

  • Adjusted nostril height for symmetry

  • Refined the bulbous nasal tip

  • Augmented the depressed bridge for balance

  • Completed all procedures internally through the closed approach


Closed Rhinoplasty Korea – Postoperative Result


After surgery, the nose gained height and definition, the columella was extended, and both nostrils became symmetrical.

The overall nasal proportion appeared natural and balanced, complementing the patient’s facial profile.
