Hello, this is Dr. Chayoung Kang from Noselab Rhinoplasty Clinic.


This case involves upturned nose correction Korea combined with functional improvement for unilateral nasal congestion. The patient had previously undergone several non-surgical procedures, but none provided long-lasting benefit. She ultimately chose surgery to improve breathing and achieve a more balanced nasal appearance.



Why This Patient Needed Upturned Nose Correction Korea


The patient presented with chronic unilateral nasal congestion and a short, wide nasal shape. Her goals included preventing alar flaring when smiling, refining the nose tip and bridge, and achieving a slightly more defined—yet still natural—overall appearance.


Key Preoperative Findings

  • Short and wide nose

  • Visible nostril asymmetry

  • Upturned nasal tip with insufficient support

  • Flat and wide dorsum

  • Nasal flaring when smiling

  • Desire for a non-exaggerated straight bridge

  • Preference for a shorter midface appearance


Surgical Plan for Upturned Nose Correction Korea and Functional Improvement


Structural & Functional Approach

  • Septal extension graft to correct tip rotation

  • Realignment of the nasal axis

  • Improvement of unilateral nasal airflow

  • Closed (endonasal) rhinoplasty approach for minimal external scarring


Aesthetic Refinements

  • Straight and harmonious nasal bridge

  • Subtle definition of the nasal tip

  • Reduction of alar flare

  • Balanced elongation of the nasal profile

Expert Commentary on Upturned Nose Correction Korea


This case demonstrates the importance of combining aesthetic design with functional correction.

The patient initially desired a very natural result, but shortly before surgery, she requested a slightly more noticeable and refined contour. Without exaggerated projection, we elevated the nasal tip, improved the bridge line, and enhanced airflow.


During the first several months of recovery, the nose may appear slightly higher; afterward, it will settle into a natural and sophisticated shape.


Conclusion


At Noselab Rhinoplasty Clinic, all procedures are performed through the closed rhinoplasty approach, allowing precise structural correction, stable support, and aesthetically balanced outcomes.
