NANA HOSPITAL NOSE

Short Nose

This surgical procedure corrects a condition where, when viewed from the front, the tip of the nose points upwards,
and the nostrils are visible. It aims to extend the length of the nose to harmonize with the facial proportions.

What is NANA's
Short Nose Surgery?

Commonly known as a "upturned nose" or "short nose," a short nose appears with the tip of the nose pointing upwards, exposing the nostrils. It occurs due to the small size of the nasal bones, septal cartilage, and inadequate skin tissue at the nasal tip. Short nose surgery involves adjusting the position of the septal cartilage and the nasal tip, in order to achieve a nose length that harmonizes with the proportions of the face. It's a challenging surgical procedure as it requires not only the correction of the septal cartilage and nasal tip but also the extension of the inner mucous membrane and skin tissue.

What is the ideal angle and
length for the side profile
we envision?

The ideal length of the nose is when it constitutes one-third of the vertical length of the face, and the angle between the forehead and the nose should be around 130 degrees, while the angle between the nose and lips is between 90 and 95 degrees. If the angle formed between the nose tip and lips is greater than 110 degrees, it can give the appearance of a short or "upturned" nose.

Types that may require
short nose surgery

01

Noses with a short nasal bridge
Noses where the length from the starting
point of the bridge to the tip is shorter than
what's proportionate to the face.

02

Cases with a significant upward tip angle
Even when the nose length is relatively long,
if the nose tip appears to be pointing upwards, creating a significant upward tip angle.

03

Resembling a "pig's nose"
Cases where the nose length is long, but the nostrils are upturned and the tip is elevated, creating a nose appearance that resembles a "pig's nose."

Advantages of Short Nose
Reshaping at Nana

The nose's connective tissues and skin are elongated seamlessly, bringing down the previously raised nasal tip to create a naturally beautiful angle.

Adequate Dissection

Thorough dissection of cartilage, skin, and
connective tissues allows for the elongation of
short skin, preventing recurrence.

Robust Cartilage
Support Structure

Creating a sturdy cartilage support structure to
lower the nasal tip and prevent the phenomenon
of nasal tip elevation.

Selection of Appropriate
Filling Materials

Choosing suitable filling materials, such
as non-septal cartilage, ear cartilage, or rib cartilage,
based on the patient's condition.

Straight Cartilage
Structure

Ensuring a straight cartilage structure to prevent the nose from
bending under any circumstances, as undue stress on the
cartilage structure is avoided in any process.

Q&A

Q

I'm considering surgery due to a flat nose bridge.
Will the implant be noticeable if I have thin skin?

If you have concerns about thin skin, excessive implant height may lead to visibility or an artificial appearance.
However, various alternatives, such as naturally inserting a lower implant, using your own dermal fat to replace the implant,
or encapsulating the implant with tissues like the periosteum, offer ways to address this issue.
With accurate examinations and thorough consultations with a plastic surgery specialist, you can achieve satisfying results.
