Apgujeong VAVA Plastic Surgery Rhinoplasty – Nose Line Design Considering Both Front and Side Views
VAVA Plastic Surgery emphasizes a balanced nose line from all angles, not just the side. Our approach focuses on the harmony of the columella, nasal tip, and bridge from the front, ensuring natural and lasting results. We offer personalized care and a dedicated post-operative system for optimal recovery.


✔ The core of rhinoplasty is ‘a structure that looks natural from the front’.
Many people first think only of the height of the nasal bridge when they consider rhinoplasty,
but in reality, the most important factor determining surgical satisfaction is
the harmony of the columella, nasal tip, and nasal bridge as seen from the front, not just the side.
Strengths of Dr. Jo Seong-eun, Director of VAVA Plastic Surgery🌟


Front fit
Columella shape
Nasal tip retention
Bulbous nose correction
These are the four surgical strengths Dr. Jo possesses.


Only when the frontal structure is stably established
will it look natural from the side, and the shape will not collapse over time.
Specifically, the nasal ridge, nasal tip, and even the nostrils must be addressed
to achieve a perfect frontal view of rhinoplasty.

✔ Natural rhinoplasty is difficult with nasal bridge height alone.
Noses that only look pretty from the side often appear unnatural in daily life.
This is because excessive heightening or extreme angles can make the nose look wide or create an artificial impression from the front.
Front-focused Rhinoplasty
At VAVA Plastic Surgery,


we emphasize the importance of multi-angle design based on the front, 45-degree, and side views through related events on our website.
The nose cannot be explained by its side profile alone, as it is a 3D立体 structure,
so the frontal appearance is also crucial.
Key points of frontal rhinoplasty


Usually, the nasal tip is sharpened for bulbous nose correction,
but at VAVA Plastic Surgery, it is important to meticulously design and perform bulbous nose surgery
so that it does not look like surgery has been done.
Rather than just a sharp nasal tip, a beautiful nasal ala line without pinching, meaning the boundary between the nasal tip and alar cartilage does not collapse,
can complete a refined nasal tip point without obvious signs of surgery.

Alar reduction can be viewed in two ways:
internal excision and external excision.
If only internal excision is performed, the size of the nostrils
may become relatively small, so
internal and external excisions must be performed together
to achieve an appropriate nostril size and effective improvement.

During rhinoplasty, the nostrils often become angular.
If the nostrils are angular, it can give an unnatural impression,
so to achieve a refined look,
we recommend designing the nostrils to form a gentle curve.

From the front, it is important that the alar tissue and columella are on the same line,
and from the side, it is crucial to complete the details with an ideal curve.
Delicate Details


VAVA meticulously checks not only the nasal tip line but also
the shape of the nostrils for detail.
Furthermore, for beautiful rhinoplasty,
we use personalized cutting to create a double support structure
to maintain the nose shape for over a year.
Instead of simply raising it, the double support structure
firmly builds the nasal tip structure, so there is relatively less concern
about sagging or deformation over time.
General Rhinoplasty VS VAVA Rhinoplasty


While previously the focus was mainly on the side profile,
now we consider the overall harmony of the face, including the forehead and chin balance.


We conduct consultations through simulations of the frontal and side views.
This can be a great help as it allows us to predict results for frontal improvements, which are difficult to anticipate,
through Photoshop virtual surgery.
* 90% similar results to Photoshop outcomes in rhinoplasty.
Dedicated Post-operative Care System Guide
For satisfactory surgical results, the recovery process after surgery is paramount.
VAVA Plastic Surgery operates a dedicated post-operative care system to take responsibility for these recovery stages.

1:1 Dedicated Consultant Assignment
A dedicated consultant who understands the surgery is responsible for one patient from the initial consultation to after the surgery.
Even if questions or discomfort arise during the recovery phase,
the same consultant always responds, allowing for more accurate and meticulous care.

Post-operative Status Check & Recovery Monitoring
From immediately after surgery to the recovery process,
we continuously check and guide on:
Swelling progression
Presence of pain
Management methods
Areas to be cautious about
Our goal is to meticulously check even small changes to help ensure a stable recovery.

Immediate Response to Issues
If discomfort, worrying symptoms, or questions arise during recovery,
the dedicated consultant immediately checks and guides on necessary actions.
By responding quickly to even minor issues,
we minimize patient anxiety and help them focus solely on recovery.

Management Responsible for Final Results
Since surgical results are completed over time,
VAVA Plastic Surgery continuously monitors the condition until recovery is established.
We stay with you until the final results are stably maintained, including
frontal and side changes, and the process of the nose line/facial line settling.


Surgical results are not solely determined by the completeness of the surgery,
but also by how stably the subsequent recovery process is managed.
VAVA Plastic Surgery considers this process important,
and continuously strengthens its dedicated post-operative care system to help patients recover comfortably.
We will continue to do our best to ensure you experience good results
through more systematic and reliable management.
