Bulbous Nose & Nostril Correction
A case study of a female patient in her 30s who underwent bulbous nose and nostril correction after being dissatisfied with previous filler treatments.
* Basic Information
# Female in her 30s
# Medical History: Previous filler treatment (+)
# Primary Concerns: ‘I have tried fillers before, but I am not happy with the shape. I also want to fix the fact that my nostrils are very visible.’
* Consultation
# The most stressful point is that the nostrils are upturned and highly visible.
# I also want to improve the bulbous tip that lacks a sharp, defined look.
# We planned to create a natural nose where the bridge is smooth and the nostrils are less visible.
* Surgical Plan
# Dissolving existing fillers
# Rhinoplasty (Bridge)
- Silicone implant
# Tip Plasty
- Bulbous nose correction
- Nostril (Alar rim) correction
* Post-operative Progress
1. After the surgery, a natural yet sharp nose tip was achieved, and the nostrils are no longer excessively visible.
2. The patient was highly satisfied as the bridge became smooth and the overall profile line was refined.
Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!
