Bulbous & Short Nose Correction
A case study of a teenage female patient who underwent bulbous and short nose correction to achieve a more refined and sophisticated facial profile.
* Basic Information
# Female in her teens
# The nose is short, bulbous, and appears upturned.
* Consultation
# The patient visited the clinic seeking correction for a bulbous nose. While a bulbous nose was traditionally thought to bring good fortune, many people now seek improvement because it can give a blunt or heavy impression.
# She was also stressed by her short nasal tip and the high visibility of her nostrils.
# We determined that a satisfying nose line could be achieved by refining the nasal tip to be slimmer while raising and smoothing the bridge line.
* Surgical Plan
# Nasal Tip Surgery (Bulbous & Short Nose Correction)
# Bridge Rhinoplasty (Silicone Implant)
* Post-operative Progress
# The patient wanted to transition from a round, cute-looking nose to a sleek, well-defined shape. It is wonderful that the desired nose shape harmonizes so well with her overall facial features.
# Now that the short and bulbous nose has been corrected, her overall image looks much more sophisticated!
