Many beauty seekers choose rhinoplasty in order to improve the flat nose shape and make the face three-dimensional and beautiful. But the beauty of the nose is multi-dimensional, if the nose shape is not only flat but also short, how to improve?
Noses that meet aesthetic standards, simple summaries should take into account the three aspects of height, length and straightness. In general, the nose accounts for about one-third of the length of the face, about 6.0 to 75 cm. If it accounts for less than one-third of the face, it belongs to the short nose, and a nose that is too short or too long can greatly affect the beauty of the face.

In East Asian populations, short nose is a very common congenital feature, which is characterized by a decrease in the defining point of the tip of the nose, an enlarged corner of the nose, exposed nostrils, etc., and most of them are accompanied by a lack of subcutaneous tissue at the tip of the nose. The entire nostril can be seen from the front view, that is, the nose is not long enough. Side view, the corners of the nose and lips are too large.
According to the degree of short nose, there are three main ways to improve short nose:
1. Raise the end of the nose: You can visually change the three-dimensional feeling of the root of the nose, but it is only suitable for beauty seekers with a lighter degree and a good nasal foundation. Because if you put it too high, it will look extremely unnatural.
2. Nasal base filling: After the nasal base is full, it will change the direction angle of the nose tip to a certain extent. It is also a way to visually improve the short nose, and the surgery can generally be performed at the same time as rhinoplasty.
3. Nasal septum prolongation: autologous cartilage is taken to support the nasal septum cartilage in the posterior, and the cartilage of the great wing is moved forward, driving the adjacent soft structure to expand at the same time, so that the nasal column and the nose head are extended at the same time. It is a short nose improvement surgery with wide applicability.

From the characteristics of the short nose, we often say that the "heavenly nose" is a typical short nose, mainly caused by dysplasia of nasal bone and nasal cartilage. Facing the sky nose is a relatively common nasal deformity, the appearance of the front view can see the entire nostril, that is, the length of the nose is not enough; the side view is that the corner of the nose is too large.
Chaotian nose is basically divided into two categories, including: primary chaotian nose, that is, congenital factors or acquired cartilage dysplasia caused; secondary chaotian nose, usually caused by contractures of tissues after rhinoplasty surgery or nasal trauma.
For a primary nose, the bridge of the nose is first raised by a prosthesis or rib cartilage. Select the appropriate material to lengthen the nasal column, shape the tip of the nose and lengthen the nose head appropriately. More serious beauty seekers may also need to extend the nasal wing cartilage, improve the problem of nasal wing contraction, and cooperate with the reduction of the nose wing.
Secondary nose as a result of trauma requires nasal correction, nasal bone, nasal cartilage correction according to severity. If the failure of rhinoplasty causes a scar contracture of the nose, etc., it is necessary to remove the previous prosthesis or cartilage, and then undergo nasal repair surgery according to the situation.
In addition to the upward nose, there is a common nasal deformity that gives people the illusion of a short nose, that is, the saddle nose. Saddle nose refers to the depression of the back of the nose and the saddle shape of the nose. This nose type, because the middle of the nose is short and lacks three-dimensionality, is easy to appear clumsy, cowardly, and not beautiful enough.
Saddle nose can be divided into light, medium and severe. Saddle nose is mostly caused by trauma, infection with tuberculosis, etc., and is also common in congenital developmental malformations. Traumatic saddle nose is most likely caused by nasal bone depression fractures that have not been properly managed or due to excessive removal of cartilage from nasal septum surgery. In China, congenital saddle nose deformities are the most common.
Depending on whether the nasal function is perfect, the saddle nose can be divided into simplicity and complexity. The simple saddle nose only shows a flat or concave nasal bridge, the support of the tip of the nose can be or slightly flat, and the physiological function of the nasal cavity is normal. It is usually desirable to complete the correction of simple saddle nose by raising the bridge of the nose.
In addition to the above problems, the complex saddle nose is often accompanied by perforation of the nasal septum or nasal dysfunction. Correction is usually done using scar excision and release of skin grafts or flap transfers, or embedded skin graft prosthesis support methods.
To sum up, most of the noses with multiple problems such as flat collapse and shortness can be improved by comprehensive nasal surgery. Professional doctors will also adjust the specific plan according to the different nasal foundations of the beauty seeker and the degree of nasal problems.
