Today, I would like to share about a few things that came into my mind when doing a rhinoplasty. First, I would like to share a though, “curved line (known as barbie doll nose job) nose job is similar to wearing high heels.”

Why do you wear high heels?
 "High heel was invented by a woman who got kissed on her forehead.” (Christopher Molley)???
 


Very common answers to why women wear high heels could be that they want to look taller, or they want to have their legs look pretty. A body changes according to whether the woman wears high heels or not.

Second might be because of pride. All women want to look arrogant and proud. All women try high heels at least once. It is difficult to express exactly, but women have sense of superiority when wearing high heels.

The bottom layer of the high heel that touches the ground is very little, and people want to be at a higher place than others. There is a little danger when wearing high heels, but women feel beauty from the heels as well.

Third is that the curves on the high heels attract women. High heels look most sophisticated from all the products that are laid out in the shopping malls.




There is another reason to why women choose high heels. People do not know this but there is one important reason.

Other women, too, wear high heels!

For example, if your friend wears 10cm high heels and your wear flats, do you think you can walk side by side with that friend? (ㅠ_ㅠ)

In Korea, where sociality is strong, you might not want to be the only one wearing flats. This is virtually impossible.

Anyway, high heels can be a source of pride to those women who want to look edgy.
 



Then why curved line nose?

Now, let’s talk about nose (high nose). If we refer to beauty surgery textbooks, most women want to escape from psychological stress by having a nose job done.
Why do you want curved line(barbie doll) nose? The answer to this question is the same as those for the high heels.

First, high nose makes the face look smaller and solid. This solid looking nose makes the face look thinner although you have a wide face. This is same as when a woman wears 10cm high heels and looks like she has long legs and good body.

Second, high nose makes you look arrogant and proud. The part of the high heel that touches the ground is very small, and so does the curved line nose that points up high. Historians say that if Cleopatra had smaller nose, the history would be changed. Also, when we say that someone has much pride, we say that the person is “hard (high) nosed.”
Curved line nose can be an expression of a woman’s pride as well.

Third, it is figuratively most beautiful. The curves on the nose makes a woman look beautiful.




But, Rhinoplasty is supposed to solve problem on the nose, and is a high technique measure to make the nose high or low so that it is in harmony with the rest of the face.

“Curved line or barbie doll nose” is a simple term to express the shape of the nose and cannot be an answer to everything.

If you are wearing shoes and if your feet feel pain or uncomfortable, you can take off your shoes, but this is not the case for the nose.
Curved line nose just refer to the nose tip. It does not define what a beautiful looking nose is.
This, too, is not the answer for pretty looking nose.


All these are important. A nose is a three dimensional figure and can look natural or unnatural on your face.

There was a Korean drama, “On-Air”, televised few years ago, and the main actor said the following to the main actress;
"You think you are popular since many people recognize you, right? You think that you are highly popular. But the only thing that is high is your high feels.”

The main actress in the drama has a character that is in danger, and is really excited. The author must have compared the character to high heels.

I have compared high and proud looking nose to high heels. Although curved line nose is popular, I do not recommend this to everyone. Just like any other beauty surgery, rhinoplasty procedure is applied according to different type of noses.


This is all for today. Take care and thank you for reading.

How to get a pretty nose  - asian rhinoplasty Korea

I am sure that there are many ladies who want to make their nose look pretty.
I would like to discuss about the “Mona Lisa line (Dorsal aesthetic line)” of the nose.

How to get a pretty nose job - asian rhinoplasty Korea

There are few questions that a lot of the patients ask.
How big silicone do I need?
Do you use septum, ear, or costal, here?

It is difficult to plan out the nose surgery while answering the questions above. Our nose is 3D therefore, it is difficult to answer one dimensional questions such as how high should the nose be or if it is Barbie doll(Curved line) nose job?
One must look at the nose in 3 dimension and design accordingly. Silicone and cartilage are used, and one must consider the side line and other dimensions as well.

Before and after nose job - asian rhinoplasty Korea

People look at the nose from 45 degree angle, from the front and from other various angles. Barbie doll(Curved line) nose job does not give full explanation in 3 dimensional aspect.

As I have stated below, I refer to the Mona Lisa line (Dorsal aesthetic line) at first. The core purpose of the nose surgery is to make the nose contour or line very clear and smooth.

Ideal dorsal aesthetic lines run smoothly from the brow to the tip of the nose

If you want a pretty looking nose, then you need the Mona Lisa line. All pretty people have this Mona Lisa line (Dorsal aesthetic line) on the noses.




But there is one thing that you need to remember. The nose starts from the eyebrows and downwards. Also, the nose tip needs to be aligned with the lips

If I have low forehead, then I cannot make the bridge thick.
If I have protruded lip then I need to have my nose higher than it is.

Therefore, I personally think that the nose surgery needs to “balance all the dimension of the face.” Many think that the nose job surgery is something artistic like sculpture or something similar, but I see it as something similar to architecture instead.

There must be a balance, harmony with the surrounding environment, and it cannot lose its structure. These all seem more like architecture.
