This Columella Correction Korea case at Dr.Kang’s NoseLab Seoul corrected an upturned and bulbous nose by extending the columella and redesigning nasal length through a closed rhinoplasty approach.
The result achieved a refined, balanced nasal profile with natural proportion.
Columella Correction Korea – Patient Background
The patient had a short and upturned nose with a wide bulbous tip.
The nostrils were highly visible from the front, and the nose appeared short and lifted.
Columella Correction Korea – Surgical Plan
Dr. Kang performed a closed structural rhinoplasty focusing on proportion and projection:
Extended the columella using autologous cartilage
Refined bulbous nasal tip
Adjusted nasal length and angle for natural proportion
Performed correction entirely through a closed incision, leaving no visible scars
Columella Correction Korea – Postoperative Result
After surgery, the nose gained ideal length and projection.
The upturned tip was lowered naturally, and the bulbous shape refined into a slimmer contour.
Dr. Kang’s Comment
“Columella correction requires precise balance between nasal length and projection.
Through the closed approach, we achieved a natural, proportional nose line without any external scar.”
NoseLab performs all surgeries using the closed approach.
