Short Nose & Bulbous Nose Correction
A case study of a 20-year-old female patient who achieved a more sophisticated look through short nose and bulbous nose correction.
* Basic Information
# Female in her 20s
# The nose appears short, blunt, and slightly upturned.
* Consultation
# The patient visited us 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.
# We determined that a satisfying nose line could be achieved by refining the nasal tip to be more slender while raising and smoothing the bridge line.
* Surgical Plan
# Tip Plasty (Bulbous nose and short nose correction)
# Rhinoplasty (Silicone implant for the bridge)
* Post-operative Progress
# The patient wanted to transition from a round, cute-looking nose to a sleek, well-defined nose. We are pleased that the desired nose shape harmonizes beautifully with her overall facial features.
# By correcting the short nose, her overall image appears much more sophisticated!
Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do many people want a bulbous nose correction?
Yes, although a bulbous nose was once considered to bring good fortune, many people currently wish to improve it because it gives a blunt impression. The goal is to make the nasal tip slender and raise the bridge line to create a smooth nose line.
What surgical plans can be made for short nose and bulbous nose correction?
Yes, for short nose and bulbous nose correction, a plan combining tip plasty and bridge augmentation can be made. Tip plasty corrects the bulbous and short nose, and during bridge augmentation, a silicone implant is used to raise the bridge line, improving the overall nose line.
What image changes can be expected after rhinoplasty?
Yes, after the surgery, you can expect a change from a round and cute-looking nose to a nose that extends straight and gives a refreshing impression. If a short nose is improved, the overall facial image can appear more sophisticated.
What are the possible complications or side effects of rhinoplasty?
Yes, various complications and side effects such as bleeding, inflammation, infection, and asymmetry can occur after rhinoplasty. These may vary depending on the individual, so sufficient consultation and caution are required before surgery.
Who should I consult for rhinoplasty?
Yes, it is best to receive rhinoplasty consultation and surgery from a board-certified plastic surgeon. It is important to have a thorough consultation with an experienced specialist to establish a surgical plan that is right for you.
