Low Bridge Rhinoplasty Case Study

* Basic Information

# Female in her 20s

# Low nasal bridge and wide-looking nasal tip

* Consultation

# The patient was concerned about her low nose height and the appearance of a wide, spread-out nasal tip.

# She desired a ‘straight-semi-curved’ (Jik-ban) line that extends clearly without showing too much of the nostrils.

* Surgical Plan

# Bridge Rhinoplasty (Silicone implant, Osteotomy)

# Tip Rhinoplasty (Septal extension graft)

* Post-operative Progress

1. In the post-operative results, a natural yet sharp straight-semi-curved tip was achieved without excessive nostril exposure, exactly as requested.

2. The bridge was raised smoothly, drawing focus to the center of the face. This added three-dimensional depth to a previously flat appearance, creating a slimming effect on the face which the patient found very satisfying.

I had surgery on my bridge and tip, and even after 3 months, the tip hasn’t dropped at all—I’m completely satisfied! My low bridge was a huge source of stress, but after surgery with Dr. Yoo Young-moon at VIBE, it has been improved beautifully. I used to get fillers all the time, but now that I’ve had surgery, I don’t have to worry about it settling or flattening. The nose line is exactly what I wanted. The main reason I chose VIBE Plastic Surgery was that the consultation was much more thorough than at other large hospitals. Since it’s a single-doctor clinic, I didn’t have to worry about ‘shadow doctors.’ I also had functional rhinoplasty at the same time. I love seeing how pretty my side profile has become. When my friends take photos of me from the side, the line is so beautiful I don’t even need to edit them. People around me say my vibe has changed and I look more mature, so I’m super happy! I was scared and anxious before the surgery because it was my first time, but now I wonder why I waited so long. I have zero regrets—well, maybe just that I didn’t do it sooner! If you’re thinking about rhinoplasty, I highly recommend doing it quickly. - A real review from our patient

Frequently Asked Questions

What methods are used for low nose augmentation?

For low nose augmentation, silicone implants and osteotomy can be used for the bridge, and septal extension grafting can be utilized for the tip. This is custom-planned according to the patient's nose condition and desired line.

Can I achieve a semi-upturned nose tip after rhinoplasty?

Yes, it is possible. In this case, the surgery aimed for a semi-upturned nose tip that extends sharply without the nostrils appearing excessively visible, and a satisfactory result was achieved after the surgery.

How long is the recovery period after rhinoplasty?

According to this post, even after 3 months post-surgery, the nose tip remains in a satisfactory condition without drooping. The post-operative progress photos also show the appearance at the 3-month mark.

Can rhinoplasty also make my face look smaller?

Yes, it is possible. In this case, the patient was satisfied because the smooth, elevated bridge drew attention to the center of the face, creating a more立体 appearance on what was previously a flat-looking face, thus achieving the effect of a smaller face.

Can functional aspects also be improved with rhinoplasty?

Yes, it is possible. This patient mentioned undergoing functional nose surgery along with cosmetic rhinoplasty. This suggests that both aesthetic improvements and functional problems of the nose can be resolved simultaneously.

What was the reason for choosing Vibe Plastic Surgery?

This patient cited the meticulous consultation compared to other large hospitals and the single-surgeon system, which eliminates concerns about ghost surgery, as the decisive reasons for choosing Vibe Plastic Surgery.
