Refine Your Nose While Preserving Cultural Identity

Ethnic rhinoplasty enhances nasal shape and function while honoring your natural features. At UE Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, our female board-certified rhinoplasty specialist personalizes each plan to your anatomy and goals—delivering definition, balance, and better breathing without erasing ethnic character.

Why Patients Choose Ethnic Rhinoplasty

• Define a low bridge with subtle augmentation
• Refine a broad or under-projected tip without over-rotation
• Balance wide nostrils/alar base conservatively
• Enderezar la asimetría y mejorar el flujo de aire
• Consiga un refinamiento compatible con la cámara que aún se parezca a usted

Personalized Planning for Diverse Anatomies

We evaluate skin thickness, radix height, bridge width, tip support, alar base shape, and airway function (septum/valves). Digital photo planning helps align expectations for profile and front-view harmony.

Techniques We May Use

• Dorsal Augmentation: Cartilage onlay (septal/ear/rib) for smooth, natural bridge lines
• Tip Support & Definition: Septal/columellar extension, shield/onlay grafts for stable projection without an over-lifted look
• Conservative Alar Base Reduction: Precise sill/alar wedge to refine width while preserving natural curvature
• Spreader/Valve Grafts: Restore internal valve angle and improve breathing
• Osteotomies & Alignment: Correct crookedness and balance bony vault
• Soft-Tissue Camouflage: Fascia/SMAS for seamless contours under thin skin

Who Is a Good Candidate?

• Desire refinement without losing ethnic identity
• Functional concerns (obstruction, valve collapse) or past injury
• Primary or revision rhinoplasty candidates (including implant-to-cartilage conversion)
• Good health and realistic expectations

What to Expect on Surgery Day

• Anesthesia: General anesthesia
• Time: ~2–4 hours (scope-dependent)
• Approach: Open or closed, chosen for precision and scarring considerations
• After: External splint ~5–7 days; most patients go home the same day

Recovery & Aftercare

• Swelling/bruise peak: first week; desk work usually 7–10 days
