Rhinoplasty

Nose tip surgery without an implant

Refines the tip alone with the patient's own cartilage so it flows naturally from the existing dorsum. Takes 40–50 minutes.

Who it suits

  • A dorsum that is already high enough but a tip that lacks definition
  • Prefer to avoid a silicone implant

Technique highlights

  • Autologous cartilage and FDA/MFDS-approved materials
  • Tip designed to balance the existing dorsal height

Surgical steps

  • Analyse proportions from forehead to tip
  • Choose between autologous cartilage and approved implants
  • Operate with minimal tissue trauma to limit swelling
  • Stitches out on day 7 with two follow-up visits

Recovery & aftercare

  • Stitch removal: 7days later
  • Recovery: 5~7days later
  • Surgery time: 40minutes~50minutes approx.
  • Anaesthesia: sedation
  • Follow-up visits: 2visit(s)

Risks & things to consider

  • Results depend on each person's anatomy and after-care.
  • Every operation carries risks and possible complications; consult a board-certified plastic surgeon first.
  • Surgery time and recovery figures come from Private's official pages and may change after assessment.

Frequently asked questions

What material is used for tip surgery?

Most tips need only a small change to line up with the existing dorsum, so the patient's own septal or ear cartilage is usually enough.
