Gangnam Station Nose Surgery: How to Choose the Right Implant Height? (Tips from VIBE Plastic Surgery)

Hello!

This is VIBE Plastic Surgery :)

During nose surgery consultations at Gangnam Station,

one of the most frequently asked questions is,

‘How is the nose height determined?’

I will explain this step-by-step from a specialist's perspective!

I will clearly and simply explain how nose height is determined

and the ideal nose height for you😊

What is the standard for implant height?

What is the height of the bridge implant in mm?

How many mm does the nasal tip go up?

During nose surgery consultations at Gangnam Station,

we often receive questions like these.

While bridge implants are expressed in mm,

the nasal tip is not expressed in mm.

The nasal tip involves various elements such as skin thickness, cartilage shape, and cartilage flexibility,

so its height is not expressed as a simple number!

Also, during nose surgery consultations at Gangnam Station,

there's a common misconception:

many people think that the silicone implant for the nasal bridge

is straight like a piece of chalk,

but that's not actually the case.

Implants are streamlined with natural curves.

They are meticulously crafted in various shapes

to suit different face shapes, skin thicknesses, and existing nasal bridge heights!

You can differentiate them based on the mm of the thickest part of the implant! :)

What is the perfect implant height for me?!

At VIBE Plastic Surgery at Gangnam Station,

we primarily use implant heights of approximately 3~5mm for nose surgery.

The shape and height of the implant vary depending on the desired outcome,

such as:

• If the glabella is low and the nasal bridge lacks contour
• If the glabella is high but the nasal bridge and tip are low
• If there is some existing nasal bridge height
• If the nose width is wide or narrow
• If the skin is thick or thin
• Do you want a natural nasal tip?
• Do you want a more dramatic nasal tip?

The most common cases at VIBE Plastic Surgery at Gangnam Station

are as follows!

✔️Relatively natural nose: 3~4mm

✔️High and prominent nose: 5~6mm

However, rather than deciding on a specific mm beforehand,

it's important to visit us directly for a thorough consultation,

and proceed with surgery that considers your nose's shape, thickness, elasticity, and balance :)

If your nose can naturally stretch within a range of about 4mm,

forcing in an implant of 5~6mm or more

can lead to the silicone becoming visible over time,

or increase the risk of inflammation

as the skin tissue cannot withstand the pressure!

Will the implant go in exactly as it looks?

When we show implants to those who visit VIBE Plastic Surgery for nose surgery at Gangnam Station,

many assume it will go into the nose exactly as it is.

However, that's not the case!

After deciding on the shape through consultation,

we go through a process called ‘carving’, where the implant is sculpted

to match the patient's nose shape and desired changes.

Conclusion!

In conclusion,

nose surgery is not simply determined by implant height alone;

it requires considering each individual's skin thickness, cartilage structure, and facial proportions!
