Hello.

💖your beauty universe! I am Dr. Seo Seung-jo, head director of Uber Plastic Surgery :)💖

​

「Can you predict your post-surgery nose shape with Photoshop?

Showing you directly through Photoshop

Nose Retouching Before & After」

​

It seems there are many great retouching apps available these days.

So when retouching your face with a Photoshop app,

you can raise the nose bridge, the nose tip, or do various other things.

​

Today, I'd like to show you a nose retouching method

that allows you to try a DIY rhinoplasty before your consultation.

This patient is a protruding mouth case where the mouth appears to stick out.

How should we retouch the nose to compensate for such a protruding mouth case?

We need to bring this exact point (the nasolabial angle)

a little further forward.

​

For this patient, the position of the glabella seems appropriate,

but the nose tip is a bit lower, making it look compressed.

I slightly reduced the philtrum area, moved it down a bit so it doesn't touch the lips,

and raised it just a little.

​

Then what happens to the nose?

This photo is used with the patient's consent.

It becomes a slightly more upturned nose than before, right?

In this situation where we've just shaped the nose like this,

if we pull the nose tip forward little by little,

doesn't it seem to create a nice-looking nose?

Since this patient's glabella height was already fine,

​

1. I didn't touch the glabella,

2. Set the position of the nasolabial angle,

3. Set the position of the nose tip,

4. And finally, connected the nose tip and the glabella.

​

It became a much smoother nose shape than before the initial retouching,

and a slightly more natural-looking nose shape.

This is because the length of the columella

did not become too long.

As the previously buried nasolabial angle is brought out,

the mouth appears less protruding, and designing it this way completes a nice-looking nose.

​

In actual surgeries, I also look at the patient's photo

and determine where the starting point of the glabella should be.

​

What I mean by looking at the starting point of the glabella is

deciding whether to start the nose above the eyebrows, above the eyelashes,

between the eyelashes and the pupils,

or around the pupils,

and I also determine the front-to-back dimensionality to set the starting point,

and decide how far the position of the nasolabial angle should go.

​

Then, as I mentioned in Part 1,

I draw a triangle.

When drawing the triangle,

depending on which angle looks the prettiest and how it is drawn,

the upper, middle, and lower proportions of the face will change.

So, I have to decide whether to set the nasolabial angle point

here, or here, and then here, or here,

or here.

And similarly, I decide whether to bring the nasolabial angle

further forward than its original position, lower it a bit,

or bring it forward again.

​

After setting these points, I set the position of the nose tip

and connect them in this manner.

​

At this time, when connecting them, based on this patient's nose,

if it becomes too straight, it might look like an upturned nose.

If it's smooth, it will give a straight-yet-curved line feel.

​

If you try designing it this way,

even when you do the Photoshop yourself,

I think you'll be able to understand much better what a more natural nose looks like.

​

The important key point here🔑

You must ★not think that you are only designing the nose★.

Because they think they are only designing the nose,

many people keep moving only the nose tip and the starting point of the nose bridge,

and barely touch the nasolabial angle area.

​

Ultimately, the most important thing is

that the nasolabial angle point must be properly corrected.

​

Depending on where the nasolabial angle point is set, both the dimensionality of the face and the naturalness of the nose can be determined.​

After that, whether to make the nose bridge curved

or make the nose tip a bit sharper

is a matter to consider after the nasolabial angle point has been set.
