Hello~

💎your beauty universe! This is Uberrs Plastic Surgery :)💎

You've probably heard at least once that you can't make a "pig nose" (pushing the nose tip up) after rhinoplasty.

Those who are considering nose surgery often worry about this aspect.

​

However, making a pig nose may or may not be possible depending on the surgical method.

In the past, when performing rhinoplasty, an L-shaped silicone implant was inserted,

which actually reduced flexibility and made it impossible to push the nose tip up.

Nowadays, depending on the materials and surgical techniques used, making a pig nose is sometimes possible.

​

​

Is it sometimes possible to make a pig nose after rhinoplasty?

​

Usually, if the surgery is performed using a septal extension graft,

it is fixed to the firm septal cartilage

to extend the nose tip, making a pig nose impossible.

​

However, if the strut is not connected to the septum,

and the tip is elevated using only soft cartilage like ear cartilage, making a pig nose is possible.

Instead, there is a bit more of a limit to how much the nose tip can be elevated.

​

However, if you want a glamorous, high-profile nose, the nose tip needs to be sharply projected,

so making a pig nose might be difficult.

​

The flexibility of the nose after rhinoplasty can vary depending on the surgical method,

and it is important to tailor the surgery to the individual's characteristics and needs.
