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.

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.

Open vs. closed incision techniques

Learn the differences between the open and closed incision methods to apply the right one.

Open approach — an illustration looking up at the base of the nose, showing incision lines along both nostril rims and across the columella between them
Closed approach — the same view of the nasal base, but the incision lines run only along the inner rim of both nostrils and do not cross the columella
Open Rhinoplasty Incision Method Closed Rhinoplasty
Incising the nostrils and columella together Incision Site An incision inside the nostril
Excellent visibility allows the internal structure of the nose to be checked,
Surgery can change not only the height of the nose but also its length
Pros An internal incision leaves no visible scarring
depending on the surgeon's skill and your skin condition
A visible scar may remain,
Recovery of the surgical site takes longer than with the closed approach
Cons Because the narrow field of view makes the inner nasal structure hard to check,
Performed by an experienced medical team
Possible when the area to be corrected is small
Applicable to nearly all rhinoplasty and revision rhinoplasty Indications Can be used to augment the bridge or the tip alone with an implant

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.

Open rhinoplasty step 4 — cross-section illustration of the nose with the incision being sutured

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.
