What Is Rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty (코성형수술) is a surgical procedure to refine the nose’s shape, size, and balance with the rest of the face. At The Beauty Surgery Clinic in Gangnam, Dr. Lee designs every rhinoplasty with precision—enhancing natural harmony, improving breathing when necessary, and avoiding an “over-done” look.

Who Can Benefit from Rhinoplasty?

This procedure is suitable for those who:

• Feel their nose is too wide, flat, or bulbous
• Have a dorsal hump or crooked bridge
• Wish to refine their nasal tip or nostrils
• Need functional correction (septal deviation, difficulty breathing)
• Want to restore or revise previous nose surgery results

Types of Rhinoplasty Performed at The Beauty Surgery Clinic

1. Bridge Augmentation

Raises and defines a low nasal bridge using silicone, Gore-Tex, or autologous cartilage for a natural yet elegant height.

2. Tip Refinement

Adjusts the angle, projection, and softness of the nasal tip using ear or septal cartilage grafts for precise definition.

3. Alar Base Reduction

Narrows wide nostrils for a more refined and proportionate appearance, maintaining natural curvature.

4. Hump Correction & Straightening

Removes or reshapes bone and cartilage to achieve a smoother nasal line and balanced profile.

5. Functional Rhinoplasty

Combines aesthetic reshaping with airway improvement—ideal for patients with breathing difficulties or past trauma.
