Natural Nose Refinement With No External Scar

Closed rhinoplasty reshapes the nose without an external incision, keeping all incisions inside the nostrils. This technique is ideal for patients seeking subtle, elegant improvement with minimal swelling, faster recovery, and no visible scar.
At UE Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, our female board-certified facial surgeon specializes in precision closed rhinoplasty that maintains nasal function while refining shape and contour.

Why Patients Choose Closed Rhinoplasty

• No external incision or columella scar
• Less swelling & faster recovery vs. open technique
• Preserves natural nasal support structures
• Great for bridge refinement, dorsum smoothing, and tip enhancement (when suitable)
• Natural result that maintains the identity of your face

Closed rhinoplasty is perfect for patients seeking subtle, elegant refinement rather than dramatic change.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

Ideal for patients who want to improve:

• Hump or dorsal bump correction
• Bridge refinement or narrowing
• Slight tip refinement/rotation (when anatomy allows)
• Nasal asymmetry or mild crooked nose
• Minor breathing corrections combined with aesthetic refinement

For complex structural changes, revision surgery, or major tip reconstruction, we may recommend open rhinoplasty instead.

Personalized Closed Rhinoplasty Planning

Your treatment plan includes:

• Facial proportion evaluation (profile + frontal balance)
• Analysis of bridge height, tip rotation, and width
• Airway and breathing assessment
• Review of nasal cartilage, skin thickness, and symmetry
• Digital imaging / simulation when appropriate

We design a surgical plan focused on refinement, harmony, and function.

Techniques We May Use

• Internal incisions inside nostrils (no visible scar)
• Cartilage reshaping / refinement
• Bridge shaving or smoothing
• Septum preservation and airway optimization
• Tip support adjustments (if indicated)
• Functional breathing improvement, if needed

What to Expect on Surgery Day

• Anesthesia: Sedation or general anesthesia
• Time: ~1.5–2.5 hours
• Approach: No outside incision, precise internal reshaping
• Home the Same Day: Outpatient procedure

Internal sutures and splints keep recovery discreet and comfortable.

Recovery & Aftercare

• Swelling and congestion: 1–2 weeks
• External splint usually removed in ~5–7 days
• Minimal external bruising (often none)
• Light daily activities in a few days
• Exercise restrictions: avoid heavy workouts ~2–3 weeks

Results refine over time — final shape matures over 6–12 months.

Results You Can Expect

• Smooth, refined nasal bridge
• Subtle tip enhancement (if planned)
• Balanced proportions with face and chin
• Improved profile without changing your essence
• Natural breathing preserved or improved

Our results are elegant and natural — your face, refreshed.

Combining Procedures

For balanced facial harmony, many patients consider:

• Chin augmentation (implant or filler)
• Facial fat grafting for midface harmony
• Lip lift or philtrum shortening
• Tip refinement or subtle fillers later (liquid refinement touch-ups)

We customize sequencing and combination planning for optimal harmony.
