Bulbous Nose & Nasolabial Angle Correction? VIBE Plastic Surgery!!

* Basic Information

# Female in her 20s

# Medical History: Had a Hiko (thread lift) procedure several years ago but was not satisfied with the results.

# Complaints:

1. Low and blunt (bulbous) nasal tip

2. The columella area connecting the nasal tip to the philtrum looks too recessed.

* Consultation

# The patient wanted to improve her low bridge and blunt tip to achieve a more sophisticated look.

# We planned to locate and remove the Hiko threads during the surgery.

# Pre-operative CT scans showed a severely deviated septum. Therefore, we decided to use donated rib cartilage to support the nasal tip and a silicone implant to raise the bridge.

* Surgical Plan

# Rhinoplasty - Bridge (Removal of foreign substances, silicone implant)

# Rhinoplasty - Tip (Bulbous nose correction, nasolabial angle correction)

Selfie 3 months after surgery

* Post-operative Progress

# There are several types of bulbous noses: 1. Thick skin, 2. Thick soft tissue (subcutaneous fat, etc.), 3. Spread and wide cartilage. Since these factors usually occur in combination, it is best to correct each factor appropriately. We sculpt the skin and soft tissue to make them thinner and refine the cartilage to create a sleek shape.

# With the bulbous nose and nasolabial angle corrected, her overall impression has transformed into a very sophisticated one!

Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!
