A drooping tip is not simply a nasal tip that points downward.

The line from bridge to tip bends sharply, creating a sharp, cold impression, and the tip often looks even lower when you smile or talk.

Bonita's drooping tip correction does not only raise the tip. It considers the angle between bridge and tip and the nasolabial angle together, giving the nose a natural, soft flow.

For You

If these concerns sound familiar

  • If the tip points downward in profile
  • If the tip droops further when you smile
  • If your face looks strong or cold
  • If a narrow nasolabial angle makes the face look closed in
  • If you want a natural change

BONITA NOSE

The finishing point of the profile, found in the harmony of the whole face

Rather than a few millimetres of height, we design the angles unique to you, flowing from forehead to nasal tip and jawline.

Why

Why is a drooping tip not simple tip surgery?

01

A drooping tip is a matter of angle

Only raising the tip can actually make the result look unnatural or artificial.

02

The balance of the nasolabial angle matters

A drooping tip often comes with a narrow nasolabial angle (the angle between nose and upper lip), so the bridge and tip must be considered together to complete a natural profile.

03

Changes with facial expression must be considered too

Even with the same drooping tip, the design can differ depending on how much the tip drops when you smile and on skin thickness.

Process

How drooping tip correction proceeds

01

Analysis of anatomical causes and proportions

Nose design begins with accurate analysis

  • Check of how far the tip droops
  • Analysis of nasolabial angle and bridge line
  • Check of tip cartilage structure
  • Analysis of tip movement when your expression changes
  • Tailored surgical plan
02

Tailored correction centred on cartilage and structure

Angle matters more than simply lifting the tip

  • Repositioning the tip cartilage
  • Planning the angle between bridge and tip
  • Creating a smooth line
  • Design in harmony with the face
03

Tissue stabilisation and stage-by-stage recovery care

Results are completed during recovery

Recovery

  1. Right after treatment

    There is swelling and bruising; the nasal splint stays on and cold compresses are used.

  2. During recovery

    The splint and stitches are removed. While the main swelling subsides, avoid pressure on the nose such as from glasses.

  3. As it settles

    As residual swelling in the tip subsides, the final shape appears.

Recovery time and follow-up visits vary with the extent of treatment and your individual condition.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Can't I just lift the tip?
Raising only the nasal tip can actually give an unnatural look. A drooping tip often comes with a narrow nasolabial angle (the angle between the nose and upper lip), so we set the angle by looking at the bridge and tip together.
Do you also look at a tip that droops when I smile?
Yes. The nasal tip can drop further when smiling, so we plan by looking at both your resting and smiling appearance.
Where will the scar be?
For the nose, scars are mostly inside the nostrils or on the columella, and we manage them so they fade over time.

※ Bleeding, infection, inflammation and other side effects may occur after surgery or treatment. Please decide after a full consultation with your doctor.
