Does your nose tip look bulbous and spread out, giving a stuffy impression every time you look in the mirror? Recently, international clients have been flocking to Korea for sophisticated plastic surgery to achieve refined and three-dimensional facial lines.

Who needs surgery for a bulbous nose tip?

Since everyone’s nose shape and cartilage condition differ, a tailored solution is necessary.
👃 When the nasal tip cartilage is excessively wide (typical bulbous nose)
👃 When the nose tip is short, disrupting overall facial proportions
👃 When the nose tip sags or deforms over time after previous surgery (safe revision rhinoplasty needed)

Customized Surgery for Your Nose: Cartilage Resection vs. Suturing

Nasal tip surgery is not just about adding height but involves the intricate repositioning of the nasal tip cartilage itself.

Cartilage Resection: When the nasal tip cartilage is too large, delicately trimming unnecessary cartilage reduces the bulbous volume to a slimmer shape.

Cartilage Suturing: When the cartilage spreads sideways, making the nose appear wide, it is tightly bound together to lift the nasal tip sharply.

Autologous Cartilage Grafting: To make the nasal tip more prominent, autologous cartilage (such as septal or ear cartilage) is used to build a strong support pillar.

The Uniqueness of Korean Rhinoplasty in Achieving Perfect Proportions

Instead of following trends, understanding and operating on the anatomical structure of your nose is the secret to successful rhinoplasty at KOKO Plastic Surgery Clinic. If you’re troubled by a bulbous nose complex or dissatisfaction with previous surgeries, we’ll help you regain the most natural and sophisticated nasal tip line.
