What is Nostril Lowering at VIBE Plastic Surgery?

Even if only the shape of the nostrils changes, the overall impression of the face changes.

Nostrils that look lifted and are excessively exposed
It is a surgery that naturally lowers the tip of the nose to refine the impression.

Adjusting the line gently while considering the height of the nostrils and left-right balance,
We aim for a calm and stable nose impression.

The specialness of the non-ball lowering technique

My own unique VIBE that no one can imitate
Finding that specialness is VIBE's philosophy.

SPECIAL POINT SPECIAL POINT SPECIAL POINT

SPECIAL POINT

Precise adjustment tailored to the proportions of the nostrils

By analyzing the height and exposure level of the nostrils
Correct it by lowering it only as much as necessary.

SPECIAL POINT

An approach that considers scar burden

Minimize the incision area to reduce external exposure
It aids in natural recovery.

SPECIAL POINT

Consider the impression of the tip of the nose as well.

Design the harmony between the tip and the nostrils together, rather than just looking at the nostrils.
Completes a soft impression.

technical know-how

VIBE Non-ball lowering

When viewed from the front, the nostrils are excessively exposed
A nose shape that creates an angry impression and an unsophisticated image
It is commonly called a dragon nose.

This phenomenon occurs when there is alar (nostril) retraction.
Accurate analysis of wing retraction types and lowering of the nostrils
It can be resolved with surgery.

Recommended For

non-ball descending

Ideal Candidates

Recommended for those who

When the nasal wings are lifted upward, the nostrils are very visible
When the tip of the nose is upturned due to contracture
When the shape of both nostrils is different
If the nostrils are too pointed
In cases where the nostrils are weak

Nose reduction surgery method

Case 01

Nostril lowering surgery method case 1. Alar retraction type 1 (medial type)

Wing retraction type 1 (medial type)

Due to alar retraction occurring on the inner side of the nostril,
It mainly occurs due to scar contracture after surgery.
The prognosis is good and correction is easy.

Surgical method:
Correction is performed by spreading and fixing the alar cartilage or by extending and grafting using autologous cartilage.

Case 02

Nostril lowering surgery method case 2. Alar retraction type 2 (central type)

Wing degeneration type 2 (central type)

Due to alar retraction occurring in the center of the nostril,
It is caused by scarring or tissue contraction.
The prognosis may be somewhat tricky, but it is correctable.

Surgical method:
The alar cartilage is spread and fixed from the center, or corrected using autologous cartilage. Tissue grafting is added if necessary.

Case 03

Nostril lowering surgery method case 3. Alar retraction type 3 (lateral type)

Wing retraction type 3 (lateral type)

Due to alar retraction occurring on the outer side of the nostril,
Scarring or contraction is the cause.
Correction can be difficult, and the prognosis tends to be tricky.

Surgical method:
The alar cartilage is laterally spread and fixed, or corrected using autologous cartilage. If necessary, tissue grafting or lateral expansion techniques may be applied.

Non-ball lowering

Expected effects after surgery

Improvement of asymmetrical nostrils
Minimize nostril exposure to achieve a natural look.
Provides a sophisticated line by appropriately adjusting the position of the nostrils.
Improved to a more balanced and sophisticated image from the front
Transformed into a natural and beautiful appearance

Non-publication, Frequently Asked Questions

Can an upturned nose be improved with just nostril lowering?

If the tip of the nose appears slightly upturned, the frontal impression can be improved simply by lowering the nostrils.
However, if the tip of the nose is significantly upturned, rhinoplasty may also be considered.

How are nostril lowering and alar reduction different?

Nose reduction surgery is a procedure that narrows the width of the nose by reducing wide nostrils.

On the other hand, the purpose of nostril lowering is to reduce the exposure of the nostrils by adjusting the lower position of the nostrils.

Is it possible to perform nostril lowering surgery as a standalone procedure?

Yes, there are many cases where the non-air descent is performed alone.
If there is dissatisfaction or a problem with the overall line of the nose, it may be performed in conjunction with other rhinoplasty procedures to improve the shape of the tip or the bridge of the nose.
