Short Nose
from 1,800,000 KRW* VAT Not Included
This procedure corrects a short, upturned nose through septal extension using septal cartilage, autologous costal cartilage, or donor costal cartilage, along with alar cartilage repositioning. The goal is to lower the nasal tip, reduce nostril exposure, and create a nasal length that suits the face. Nasal dorsum augmentation may be performed concurrently if necessary.
Surgery Overview
Short Nose Correction is a procedure that uses Septal Cartilage and other materials to lengthen the Nasal Tip and reposition elevated Cartilage, correcting a short, upturned nose to a length and angle suited to the Face. Wonjin Plastic Surgery combines cartilage repositioning, septal extension, and augmentation rhinoplasty depending on the nasal condition and whether Revision surgery is needed.
Nasal Tip Lengthening (Septal Extension) In most cases of a short, upturned nose, the nose is short in length and appears elevated. Because this occurs due to an overall lack of nasal tissue, a sufficient amount of Septal Cartilage is harvested for Nasal Tip lengthening to extend the nose and create a smooth, refined nasal shape.
Recommended for
· Those with a short nose and an upturned Nasal Tip · Those whose nostrils are prominently visible from the front because the Nasal Tip is elevated · Those whose face appears flat due to a short nose · Those whose nose length is less than one-third of the overall Face

Features of Wonjin Short Nose Correction
Point 1. Ideal Angle and Height
Improves the angle and height between the Nasal Tip and lips to an ideal proportion.
Point 2. Reduced Nostril Exposure
Lengthens the nose to reduce visible nostril exposure.
Point 3. Addressing Capsular contracture Complications
Also corrects complications caused by Capsular contracture after nasal surgery.
Point 4. Reliable Correction Without Recurrence
Provides reliable correction to prevent the nose from becoming upturned again.
Surgical Methods
The method is determined differently depending on the nasal condition and whether Revision surgery is needed. By reducing nostril exposure and lengthening the nose to a proportion that suits the Face, we create a nasal line that balances the entire Face.
SOLUTION 1. Cartilage Repositioning
When the nostrils are elevated, the elevated alar Cartilage is dissected without damaging the mucosa and repositioned to reduce nostril visibility.
SOLUTION 2. Septal Extension
When the Nasal Tip is elevated, septal extension using Septal Cartilage, Autologous Rib Cartilage, or Donor Rib Cartilage lowers the Nasal Tip.
SOLUTION 3. Cartilage Repositioning + Septal Extension + Augmentation Rhinoplasty
When the nose itself is short, it is corrected with cartilage repositioning and septal extension. If a higher Nasal Tip is desired, augmentation rhinoplasty is added. (An Implant is mainly used for the nasal dorsum, and Ear Cartilage for the Nasal Tip.)

Please Review Carefully
Complications that may generally occur after surgery and treatment, including bleeding, infection, inflammation, and nerve damage, may vary in severity depending on the individual, so caution is required. Surgical methods and results may vary depending on individual conditions and are determined through consultation with a specialist.
