After surgery
Before surgery
Rhinoplasty offers a transformative opportunity as the surgeon reshapes both the nasal bridge and tip, crafting a beautifully enhanced nasal profile.
This procedure is particularly effective in addressing concerns such as a low or flat nasal bridge, ensuring it harmonizes seamlessly with your facial contours.
Experience a remarkable transformation, unveiling a more refined and aesthetically pleasing version of yourself through rhinoplasty.

who
1. Your nose bridge is too low, making your face look flat
2. You want to improve your hooked or curved nose
3. The overall length of your nose is too short or too long
4. Your nose bridge is wide and low.
A nose suitable to your face - sophisticated and natural rhinoplasty
Silicone Implant (Nose bridge) + Cartilage (Tip of nose)
In case both your nose bridge and tip of your nose require correction
STEP 1
Depending on the design, either an open or closed incision is used
STEP 2
Space is secured right above the nasal bone to insert the silicone implant. Cartilage is used to modify the tip of the nose.
STEP 3
Rhinoplasty is completed and incision is sutured after checking if the new design of the nose looks good together with the rest of your face (forehead, jaw).
When would the doctor only use cartilage and not any silicone implants?
- Cases where it is difficult to use implants
- Cases where patients do not want to get any silicone implants and prefer the usage of cartilage only.
Both cartilage and dermofat can be used
(surgery is performed by selecting the material most suitable for the patient’s nose condition)
Cartilage: ear cartilage, septal cartilage, rib cartilage
Dermofat: autologous dermal harvesting.
Nose bridge material
If sufficient results cannot be achieved by repositioning the nasal tip cartilage only, the doctor will use cartilage
(if the skin is very thin, the doctor uses dermofat or fascia)
Nose tip material
Surgical Materials Utilized in Rhinoplasty
HIVOM PLASTIC SURGERY
Silicone
Silicone stands as the predominant implant material in rhinoplasty, renowned for its long-term safety profile within the human body. Its widespread use is attributed to its minimal allergenicity and its malleability, allowing for precise shaping to suit individual preferences. Notably, our surgeons predominantly employ high-soft silicone, notably Bistool silicone, prized for its tactile softness akin to Gore-Tex and its non-translucent properties.
Septal cartilage
Ear cartilage
Donated costal cartilage
(rib cartilage)
Dermofat
Utilization of Autologous Tissue as Implants
In our practice, we prioritize the use of soft autologous tissue over silicone implants for nasal tip augmentation.
Primarily, we rely on autologous tissue sources such as ear cartilage and septal cartilage. Additional options include utilizing other autologous tissues like skin, fat, and temporal fascia to achieve a remarkably natural contour.
In cases where patient-specific cartilage is unavailable, donated costal (rib) cartilage is utilized. This approach ensures compatibility with your body's own tissues, thereby enhancing safety and minimizing the risk of rejection.
HIVOM Plastic Surgery's Core Competitiveness
HIVOM PLASTIC SURGERY
1:1 Custom rhinoplasty
You will decide together with your surgeon on a specific design for your nose after
sufficient consultation, considering the overall harmony and balance of your facial features.
After that, the surgeon will perform a customised rhinoplasty using the best surgical method.
Precise facial analysis
The doctor will not only identify the external size and shape of the nose, but will also examine the anatomical structure within the nose. This way, both aesthetic and functional factors can be improved at the same time.
Safety-first Anesthesia System
We put safety first. We use dedicated anaesthesia and condition checks throughout
the entire surgical process, from pre-surgery to post-surgery recovery.
Aftercare Program
Benefit from our top-tier aftercare program designed to expedite your recovery process to the fullest extent. By proactively minimizing swelling, bruising, and managing wounds with precision, we ensure your swift recuperation.
