Middle Eastern Rhinoplasty in Seoul, Korea
Middle Eastern rhinoplasty in Gangnam, Seoul at Marble Plastic Surgery: hump reduction and tip support for a balanced profile that stays natural.

Typical ranges for middle eastern rhinoplasty; your surgeon confirms the details at consultation.
What is Middle Eastern rhinoplasty?
Middle Eastern rhinoplasty is ethnic rhinoplasty that typically reduces a dorsal hump, lifts a drooping tip and refines a strong nose while keeping it in character with the face. At Marble Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, Seoul, it is planned with 3D-CT and performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon.
Typical features include a high bridge with a hump, a long or downward-pointing tip and sometimes thick skin. A conservative reduction with strong tip support avoids an over-reduced or pinched result and maintains the airway.
Who is Middle Eastern rhinoplasty for?
Suitability is decided at a 1:1 consultation with your surgeon.
- A prominent dorsal hump
- A tip that droops, especially when smiling
- A nose that looks long or large for the face
- People who want a natural, not over-reduced, profile
How Middle Eastern rhinoplasty is performed at Marble
- Consultation and planning Your surgeon reviews your profile and airway on 3D-CT and agrees how much hump reduction and tip rotation will look balanced.
- Anesthesia and monitoring A board-certified anesthesiologist selects the anesthesia with your surgeon, administers it, and monitors you continuously throughout the procedure.
- Hump reduction and tip support The hump is lowered, the nasal bones are narrowed by osteotomy, and the tip is lifted and stabilized with septal cartilage.
- Recovery and discharge You rest in a private recovery room under monitoring. Before you leave, the team explains wound care, medication and your follow-up schedule.
Recovery and aftercare
Most patients go home the same day. A splint is usually worn for about a week, and visible swelling settles over roughly two weeks, with the tip continuing to refine for months. Aftercare visits are scheduled on days 2, 7 and 14.
- Swelling injection on day 2
- Regenerative laser on days 7 and 14
- 1:1 progress checks with your surgeon
- Unlimited scar care

Frequently asked questions
Will my nose look over-operated?
A conservative reduction that leaves a straight, strong bridge is planned to avoid an artificial or scooped look.
Can breathing be improved at the same time?
Yes. A deviated septum or narrowed valves can be corrected during the same surgery.
Is the result permanent?
Bone and cartilage changes are permanent once healed, although the nose, like the rest of the face, changes subtly with age.
