Many patients visit NoseLab for Closed Rhinoplasty Korea, seeking both aesthetic enhancement and functional breathing improvement.

In this case, the patient presented with nasal congestion and a droopy, bulbous nasal tip. Through a closed approach, both the shape correction and nasal function were successfully improved.

Preoperative Consultation and Surgical Plan in Closed Rhinoplasty Korea

The patient complained of nasal obstruction and wanted to correct the stubby and low nose bridge. The nasal tip skin was thick, making the tip appear heavier than the bridge, while the nostrils were overly visible from the front.

During consultation, we planned a Closed Rhinoplasty Korea approach to refine the bulbous nasal tip by removing excess soft tissue under the skin, reshaping and tying the alar cartilages, and elevating the nasal tip to create a natural three-dimensional contour.

The nasal bridge was raised moderately to enhance balance and achieve a refined, masculine line.

Surgical Findings

CT scans and nasal endoscopy before surgery showed a rightward septal deviation and hypertrophy of the inferior turbinate.

During surgery, the septal deviation appeared more severe than the preoperative imaging suggested, and the septal cartilage was relatively small and thin.

We resected the most curved portions and performed cross-hatching incisions on the concave parts to straighten the septum.

The inferior turbinate was reduced using a high-frequency laser to relieve nasal obstruction and improve airflow — an essential step often combined with Closed Rhinoplasty Korea when functional problems coexist.

Functional and Aesthetic Results after Closed Rhinoplasty Korea

Immediately after surgery, the droopy nasal tip was significantly corrected, and the hanging columella was slightly reduced, creating a smoother and more natural nasolabial angle.

As swelling between the eyebrows subsides, the nasal bridge will appear straighter and more defined.

From the 45-degree view, the nasal tip’s position and projection became ideal.

From the front, the widened tip was refined, and the visible nostril area decreased noticeably, achieving a natural, balanced appearance.

The nostril base, which previously flared outward, now looks soft and symmetrical — a hallmark of successful Closed Rhinoplasty Korea outcomes.

Natural Improvement in Droopy and Bulbous Nose

After surgery, the patient reported easier breathing and improved nasal airflow.

The deviated septum was neatly corrected, and the previously droopy, bulbous, and stubby nasal tip was reshaped harmoniously.

This Closed Rhinoplasty Korea case demonstrates how both function and aesthetics can be restored through precise, minimally invasive surgical design.
