This Closed Rhinoplasty Korea case by Dr.Kang’s NoseLab involved correcting prosthesis protrusion, bulbous and hanging nose, and nostril asymmetry through a completely closed approach. The procedure achieved structural stability and natural balance without any external scars.


Closed Rhinoplasty Korea – Patient Background


The patient presented with an uneven nasal shape and visible prosthesis protrusion from a previous surgery.

The nasal tip was drooping, the nostrils were asymmetrical, and the overall nose appeared bulbous and heavy at the tip.


Closed Rhinoplasty Korea – Surgical Plan


Dr. Kang performed a closed rhinoplasty focused on functional correction and natural reshaping:

  • Removed the protruding prosthesis and scar tissue

  • Refined the bulbous nasal tip

  • Lifted and realigned the hanging tip

  • Adjusted nostril asymmetry internally for balanced shape

  • Maintained structure using only internal incisions


All corrections were done through a fully closed approach, ensuring no visible external scars.


Closed Rhinoplasty Korea – Postoperative Result


After surgery, the nasal contour appeared smooth and balanced.

The prosthesis protrusion was fully corrected, the tip refined, and nostril asymmetry greatly improved, restoring a natural and stable nasal line.

Closed Rhinoplasty Korea – Dr. Kang’s Comment


“In revision cases involving prosthesis protrusion, precision removal and reconstruction are critical. Using the closed rhinoplasty Korea technique, we achieved a natural and stable result without any external incision.”


NoseLab performs all surgeries using the closed approach.
