Hello! I am Dr. Chayoung Kang, the Director of Noselab Cliinic.
This patient visited my clinic to improve the ap;pearance of a wide bulbous nose and correct a short chin.
Preoperative Diagnosis
The nose tip was wide and bulbous.
The nose bridge was flat in comparison to the nose tip, and the nose looked short in general.
The glablela was flat and the nasal bone looked narrow and asymmetrical, with an overall crooked appearance.
Seen from the front, and looking at the nasal base, the nasal alar and the nostrils present asymmetry.
The chin was short and small, it appeared to be receding.
Surgery Plan
Correct the bulbous nose using the self-rib cartilage.
Using a silicone implant on the nose bridge to connect it to the nose tip in a natural-looking manner.
Correct the deviated nasal bone thorugh an external osteotomy.
Correct the receding chin by positioning the silicone implant towards the mouth.
Before and After Surgery Photos
From the lateral view, we can observe the blunt nose tip has become slimmer, and the columella was slightly lowered, enhancing the nasolabial angle. The short chin became more natural-looking.
On the 45-degree angle, the previousl wide nose tip can be observed to have improved in appearance, especially the shape of the chin can be observed differently.
From the front, the deviated and asymmetric appearance was improved.
The nostril asymmetry and the wide appearance has improved significantly.
Photos after the Surgery
General Overview
Many people get rhinoplasty because they want to have a beautiful and attractive nose. However, it does not matter how beautiful a nose is if it does not fit well with the facial proportions, there will be many good points and bad points. That is why, there is no attarctive woman or man without distinctive facial features and good proportions.
For this reason, rhinoplasty can have a synergy effect with simple surgeries, such as facial fat grafting, nasolabial fold surgery and short chin surgery. Since this patient had a short chin, he had a short chin corrective surgery at the same time as a rhinoplasty, and the appearance post-surgery could be seen to be more balanced.
Today’s case was a bulbous nose corrective surgery and a short chin corrective surgery performed at the same time. I hope this text is helpful for those who want to heighten their noses and have a short chin.
