Revision Rhinoplasty for a Blunt and Short Nose by Dr. Young Moon Yoo of VIBE Plastic Surgery

👀 Pre-Surgery Concerns

: Despite having previous nose surgery, the patient was dissatisfied because the tip of the nose still appeared blunt and short.

: The overall impression felt strong and stifling, and most importantly, the patient expressed feeling self-conscious whenever looking in the mirror.

📝 Surgical Plan

: Correction of a bulbous and short nose using autologous rib cartilage

• Stable reconstruction of the nasal columella and tip using autologous rib cartilage
• Refining the blunt bulbous nose and designing the short nose to appear naturally longer
• Focusing on a natural and feminine line rather than excessive height

🛌 Post-Surgery Changes: Towards a Soft and Sophisticated Image

The nose was refined into a more delicate and slim line, completely improving the previously short and blunt impression.

A sense of three-dimensionality was added to the entire face, transforming the overall vibe into something more sophisticated.

Above all, the patient regained a lot of confidence due to feedback from others saying, ‘You look different, but it doesn’t look like you had surgery.’

😊 Post-Surgery Satisfaction

The patient mentioned that their self-esteem regarding their appearance rose significantly, and they became much more confident in daily life, whether taking photos or meeting people.

‘I hear a lot that my impression has become softer. Now, I smile when I look in the mirror.’

Hearing this comment was truly rewarding.

✍️ Closing Thoughts

It is not just about creating a high nose; it is important to have a harmonious design that considers the face shape, proportions, forehead, eyebrows, and even facial expression muscles.

VIBE Plastic Surgery aims for sophisticated design plastic surgery that improves each patient’s unique impression, rather than just performing a simple procedure.

Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!
