Achieving a smooth, natural shape without implants actually requires a higher level of skill. Gangnam Seoyon has an extensive clinical background to select the right material for each nose type, as well as the expertise to harvest autologous tissue safely.
Our board-certified plastic surgeon and Chief Director handles all consultations personally and decides the material selection tailored to each nose type.
A comprehensive evaluation of nasal height, shape, and skin thickness guides us to recommend the most suitable autologous tissue.
Because the pros and cons differ by tissue type, the material must be chosen carefully after thorough diagnosis and consultation.
More elastic than septal cartilage and naturally curved, making it ideal for creating a natural nasal tip shape.
A flat, board-like cartilage standing upright within the partition between the two nostrils. Widely used as it is well suited for building nasal bridge height.
Harvested when ear or septal cartilage is insufficient; primarily used when the nose is small or very short, or when side effects from a previous surgery are severe.
Located beneath the outermost epidermis layer, between the fat layer; it moves softly to the touch, further enhancing naturalness. Particularly recommended for those who have had inflammation caused by implants.
From a customized design based on the nasal condition to completing a natural nose line
The surgical method and materials used vary depending on nasal height, shape, and current condition. When autologous tissue is used, it is especially important to understand the characteristics of each tissue type and choose accordingly. Gangnam Seoyon establishes a thorough pre-operative plan to deliver safe and satisfying results.
