Rhinoplasty Before and After Photos

Rhinoplasty (Augmentation)

Firstly, before you take the surgery, it is important for the surgeon to know the existing problems on your nose. They could be that your nose is too flat, too big, too small or too distorted. The surgery will be done exactly as you wish.

The nose can be separated into 3 parts. The first is the bridge of the nose . The second part is the alar (nose wing) , some people have too much skin in this area which  is not good for personality and the surgery can fix this problem and nose will be more in shape and more attractive. And the third part is the nose tip, you can see many actors and actresses in Thailand have their nose tip fixed into the shape of water drop. But all of these are dependent on your wish or you can fix all parts of your nose with us at once.

The Nose Surgery Procedure (Augmentation)

The nose is an important part of our face and this can help us to look more attractive as well as helping to improve our personality and self-confidence. Mostly in Thailand, the nose surgery implants can also be categorized into 3 types: Cartilage, Silicone, and Filler.

The cartilage used in the nose surgery comes from different parts of our body such as from ears for cosmetic purpose or from our rib which is for the medical purpose to fix the disability.  And secondly, the silicone both instant and hand-made can be used for surgery too but they have different advantages. We use the hand-made silicone from our clinic in order to fit with your nose shape. The silicone surgery can be divided into 2 types, the first is to cover the wound inside the nose, this type helps patient to conceal their surgery wound and another type is the open wound surgery. The last material is the filler which will be injected in the nose to fix and alter nose shape; this method is not expensive and takes only a few days for recovery.
