Hello~

💎your beauty universe! This is Dr. Shim Jung-hwan, Head Director of Weverse Plastic Surgery :)💎

Because Asian noses typically have a low bridge and a bulbous tip,

many people choose to improve them through rhinoplasty.

​

Rhinoplasty usually shapes the nose using an implant for the bridge and autologous cartilage for the tip.

​

It would be ideal if every surgery is perfectly successful, but sometimes side effects occur,

such as the cartilage showing through the tip of the nose after raising the bridge.

​

Cartilage show-through refers to the phenomenon where ear cartilage or septal cartilage inserted under the skin

becomes visible through the skin over time.

​

Today, let's find out why this cartilage show-through occurs.

Why does cartilage show through the nasal tip?

Whether the skin on the nasal tip is thin or not, it has a tendency to maintain its original shape.

Therefore, if cartilage is inserted into a shallow layer or if the length of the nasal tip is excessively extended,

it will gradually press against the skin over time, causing the skin to thin further

and leading to cartilage show-through.
