APEX Flat Nose Rhinoplasty We raise a flat nose in line with your facial balance to create a defined, harmonious nasal line. Harmony from the bridge to the tip! Sitting at the center of the face, the nose governs your overall impression and contours, so it carries great weight in determining your style. A flat nose leaves the features less defined and creates an overall plain impression. When the bridge is low or the nose is small and lacks definition, flat nose rhinoplasty can adjust the height and angle of the bridge and the tip to improve the nasal line so that it looks natural and well defined from any angle. Add definition to the face with the nose height, width and angle that suit you Bring the nose and the face into overall harmony! APEX flat nose rhinoplasty brings out the definition of the face for a more refined look. By designing a nasal line and nose shape that suit each person's image and individuality, a high level of satisfaction can be expected.

Prologue

Because the nose sits at the center of the face and shapes the overall impression and contour, it accounts for a large part of your look. A flat nose leaves the features less defined and creates an overall plain impression. Surgery to correct a flat nose — one with a low bridge, or a small nose that lacks dimension — is called flat nose rhinoplasty. By adjusting the height and angle of the bridge and the tip, it can create a nose line that looks natural and dimensional from any angle.

Ideal Nose

The ideal nose line as APEX sees it

What does APEX Plastic Surgery consider the ideal nose line?

A harmonious face keeps its left-right balance without deviation, and by sitting in the middle third of the distance from the hairline to the chin it also keeps the vertical balance of the face. In an ideal profile, the angle formed by the nose and the forehead is 135~140 degrees, and the angle formed by the nasal tip and the lips is

So for rhinoplasty that harmonizes with your face, it is important to observe the shape of your own nose closely, to know specifically what kind of nose shape you prefer, and to discuss it fully with a specialist before proceeding with surgery.

the angle is known to be 90–95 degrees, but rather than such figures What matters most is achieving harmony across the whole face.

Once the nose shape you want harmonizes with your face and is realistically achievable, it is the surgeon's role to choose the specific technique and perform the operation.

Surgery

APEX Flat Nose Surgical Method

How is flat nose rhinoplasty done at APEX?

Open incision surgery

Because the incision inside the nose is connected to an incision on the outside, the internal structures of the nose can be observed during surgery. The incision line runs from the mucosa inside the nose to the outside of the columella, so the incision site is exposed externally, which allows conditions not recognized before surgery to be diagnosed accurately and the cartilage and bone to be corrected in exactly the right position, making it possible to correct the shape of the nose more actively.

Incision

incisions are made inside the nostrils and across the columella.

Delicate Dissection

The nasal skin is lifted while cartilage and skin are dissected.

Insertion of implant and autologous tissue

Silicone raises the nasal bridge, while ear cartilage reinforces the tip and the columellar strut.

Delicate Suturing

After checking the overall balance, the incision is sutured.

Closed incision surgery

This technique places the incision only on the mucosa inside the nose so it is not visible from outside, and does not require cutting the septum, reducing concerns about visible scarring.
