Men’s Short Nose Rhinoplasty at VIBE Plastic Surgery! (feat. BBU TV)
A case study of a male patient in his 30s who corrected a short, low nose and improved the appearance of a protruding mouth through rhinoplasty.
* Basic Information
# Male in his 30s
# Nose
- Wants to improve a low and short nose
* Diagnosis of Current Condition
# Nose
- The primary concern was that the nose was low and short.
- Due to a protruding mouth structure, the nose appeared relatively shorter than it actually was.
- Fortunately, the septal cartilage had sufficient size and strength. However, because the skin was tight with little elasticity, the plan was to raise the nose using only autologous cartilage without overextending the tissues.
* Plan
# Nose
- Rhinoplasty for the bridge (Silicone implant)
- Rhinoplasty for the tip (Short nose and bulbous nose correction)
* Post-Operative Progress
# Nose
- Luckily, the septum was straight and had enough size and strength, allowing for a satisfying result using autologous cartilage. As expected, the skin lacked elasticity, so the surgery focused on the line and shape without pushing the limits of the skin.
- By raising and lengthening the low, short nose, we achieved a ‘two birds with one stone’ effect where the relatively protruding mouth structure also appeared significantly improved.
Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!

Frequently Asked Questions
Can men also get short nose surgery?
Yes, it is possible. The 30-year-old male patient in the main case also underwent surgery to improve his low and short nose and achieved satisfactory results.
What materials are used for short nose surgery?
In the main case, autologous cartilage was used because the size and strength of the septal cartilage were sufficient. Silicone implants were used for bridge augmentation.
Can a protruding oral structure also be improved with nose surgery?
Yes, it can be improved. As stated in the main text, the low and short nose became higher and longer, achieving a double effect of resolving the relatively protruding oral structure.
How long is the recovery period after short nose surgery?
Specific information about the recovery period is not mentioned in the main text. However, a photo taken 2 months after the surgery is provided.

Vibe Plastic Surgery is located on the 8th floor of Urbanhive, 476 Gangnam-daero, Gangnam-gu, Seoul.
What happens if there is not enough skin elasticity for short nose surgery?
Even if the skin is tight with insufficient elasticity, surgery is possible. In the main case, the surgery focused on the line without overstretching the skin.
