I’m 23 and I feel like I’ve finally reached the right age to go through cosmetic surgery, however I have a very specific nose that I want and I’m not sure if it’s even possible to achieve it. I don’t necessarily want a higher bridge but I want this shape (pics 3-5) instead of a straight nose, which is a very common result of asian rhinoplasty. I feel like a straight nose elongates people’s faces, so I want the tip to be more flat, squarish and up-turned.

Answer: The effect you want can be achieved with 3D printed custom implant. Since your nasal tip seems upturned, it will be better to lengthen the tip naturally. If you don't want it for subjective reasons, you need to consult with the surgeon in more detail about that part.Of course, the final decision is yours. The shape you desire for nasal bridge augmentation is to create the eyebrow dorsal aesthetic line. This shape is impossible with conventional implants or autogenous tissues. What makes this possible is a custom-made 3D printing implant. Since the 3D prining implant can actually embody the shape desired by the patient, it is possible to set the desired shape through a simulation program and send this data to a company to manufacture an implant of the desired shape and height, which is possible in Korea.

Answer: Thick skin limits rhinoplasty results... Based on your photos, you appear to have a broad, flat nasal appearance, a "polybeak", and thick, oily nasal skin. Unfortunately you my not be able to achieve the definition and shape you desire for a few reasons, most notably your skin thickness. If you decide to undergo rhinoplasty, raising your upper bridge a few millimeters with an implant may help to achieve better bridge definition. Please consider visiting a rhinoplasty specialist who offers computer imaging so you could see what to expect after rhinoplasty. Thank you! Dr Joseph
