If your nose tip is dropping or pointed down like an arrow, this procedure is right for you. This is sometimes referred to as a “ptotic” nose. The nasal tip is too long and drops down causing facial imbalance.

This procedure is very complex and only a rhinoplasty specialist should do it. Seoul Guide Medical can help you find the right specialist for you. Some of your nose tip cartilage is excised to reduce the tip length. Cartilage is positioned on the nose tip near the septum to raise it and set the correct angle. In complex cases, additional cartilage is used on the nose tip and near the septum along with a possible bridge implant.
