Gangnam Station Rhinoplasty Implant Height: How Should You Choose? (Tips from Vibe Plastic Surgery)

​<\/p>

What is the standard for implant height?<\/blockquote>

How many mm is the nasal bridge implant?<\/p>

How many mm will the nasal tip be raised?<\/p>

While conducting Gangnam Station rhinoplasty consultations,<\/p>

we often see people asking<\/p>

questions like the ones above.<\/p>

Although nasal bridge implants are expressed in mm units,<\/p>

the nasal tip is not expressed in mm.<\/p>

For the nasal tip, factors like skin thickness, cartilage shape, and cartilage flexibility<\/p>

all work together, so<\/p>

we do not express its height with a simple number!<\/p>

​<\/p>

​<\/p>

There is another point that many people find confusing<\/p>

during Gangnam Station rhinoplasty consultations.<\/p>

Many people think that the silicone implant<\/p>

inserted into the nasal bridge is straight like a piece of chalk,<\/p>

but in reality,<\/p>

that is not the case.<\/p>

Implants are streamlined with a natural curve.<\/p>

​<\/p>

To match the facial shape, skin thickness, and nasal bridge height,<\/p>

they are manufactured in various subdivided shapes<\/p>

so they can be used accordingly!<\/p>

You can categorize them based on the mm<\/p>

of the thickest part of the implant! :)<\/p>

What is the perfect implant height for me?!<\/blockquote>

At Vibe Plastic Surgery for Gangnam Station rhinoplasty,<\/p>

we mainly use implant heights<\/p>

of about 3~5mm during nose surgery.<\/p>

​<\/p>

If the glabella is low and the nasal bridge lacks curves,<\/p>

If the glabella is high but the nasal bridge and tip are low,<\/p>

​<\/p>

If there is already some nasal bridge height,<\/p>

If the width of the nose is wide or narrow,<\/p>

If the skin is thick or thin,<\/p>

​<\/p>

Do you want a natural-looking nasal tip?<\/p>

Or do you want a glamorous look?<\/p>

​<\/p>

Depending on the desired shape,<\/p>

the shape and height of the implant will vary.<\/p>

​<\/p>

<\/figure>

The most common cases at Vibe Plastic Surgery<\/p>

for Gangnam Station rhinoplasty are as follows!<\/p>

✔️ Relatively natural nose: 3~4mm<\/p>

✔️ High nasal bridge and glamorous nose: 5~6mm<\/p>

​<\/p>

However, rather than deciding in advance<\/p>

how many mm you want to insert,<\/p>

you should visit in person for a thorough consultation,<\/p>

and proceed with a surgery that considers<\/p>

the shape, thickness, elasticity, and balance of your nose :)<\/p>

​<\/p>

If the range your nose can naturally stretch<\/p>

is about 4mm, forcefully inserting a 5~6mm implant<\/p>

can increase the risk over time<\/p>

of the silicone showing through,<\/p>

or the skin tissue failing to withstand the pressure,<\/p>

leading to inflammation!<\/p>

​<\/p>

Will the implant be inserted exactly as it is?<\/blockquote>

When we show the implants to patients<\/p>

visiting Vibe Plastic Surgery for Gangnam Station rhinoplasty,<\/p>

many think they are inserted into the nose exactly as they are.<\/p>

That is not true!<\/p>

After determining the shape through consultation,<\/p>

we anticipate the patient's current nose shape and the desired changes,<\/p>

and go through a process called 'carving' to sculpt the implant.<\/p>

​<\/p>

Conclusion!<\/blockquote>

In conclusion,<\/p>

rhinoplasty is not determined solely<\/p>

by the height of the implant,<\/p>

but must take into account each individual's skin thickness,<\/p>

cartilage structure, and facial proportions!<\/p>

Visit Vibe Plastic Surgery for Gangnam Station rhinoplasty,<\/p>

have an in-depth consultation with our head surgeon,<\/p>

and design the nose shape<\/p>

that suits you best<\/p>
