Nose
Sleep tall and straight without implants!
What is non-implant rhinoplasty?
Create a beautiful nose line without implants
By reducing the wide nostrils to fit the face and making them slimmer, you can create a soft and slim line, giving you a sophisticated image.
Based on a deep understanding of cartilage anatomy and structural stability, we use nasal septal cartilage, ear cartilage, autologous costal cartilage, autologous dermis, etc. By precisely combining only autologous tissues that are suitable for the individual's condition, a natural and harmonious nose height and line are completed without prosthetics.

Specialty
The special features of Du Ja-ryehan's rhinoplasty
Specialty
- 01
- Precision diagnosis based on 3D-CT and
Customized surgical design
After accurately diagnosing the individual's internal nasal structure and cartilage condition using cutting-edge 3D-CT equipment, a thorough surgical plan is established to enhance safety and complete surgical results.
Specialty
- 02
- A natural nose line that takes into account the harmony of the entire face
Based on aesthetic sense and anatomical understanding, we design a natural nose tip and line in a sophisticated straight-legged form that is not artificial.
Specialty
- 03
- Considering movement and touch
High-difficulty surgery
By using only autologous tissue, not implants, it achieves natural movement and a comfortable feel like a real nose.
Specialty
- 04
- By utilizing self-organization
Minimizing side effects and foreign body sensation
By precisely using the individual's septal cartilage, ear cartilage, and autologous costal cartilage, we minimize concerns about side effects such as foreign body sensation, inflammation, and contracture caused by the prosthesis.
Specialty
- 05
- DU Safe Core system
A robust nose tip structure design utilizing
DU's unique Safe Core system (dual pillar structure, triple fixation, 2-way support) creates a strong nose tip that will not collapse even after a long time through self-organization alone.
Specialty
- 06
- Systematic and thorough aftercare system
Our post-surgical care program provides continuous monitoring and meticulous aftercare to help you maintain long-term, stable beauty.
DU non-implant rhinoplasty Types of self-organization
DU Plastic Surgery performs non-implant rhinoplasty according to the patient's anatomical structure and surgical purpose.
By customizing various self-organizations,
Designing a safe and natural nose line.
ear cartilage
The cartilage of the ear has a curved structure and elasticity that makes it ideal for shaping the tip of the nose. Its thin structure allows for a natural, smooth shaping of the tip. Scars are virtually invisible, and the ear shape remains unchanged.
Septal cartilage
The nasal septum is a cartilage located in the center of the nose. It is the most commonly used autologous tissue to support or angle the nasal tip. Its structural stability and ease of access make it a preferred choice for primary surgery.
costal cartilage
Costal cartilage is used when autologous cartilage is insufficient or when a large amount of cartilage is needed for revision surgery. Costal cartilage possesses strong support and excellent shape retention, making it useful for high-difficulty procedures such as nasal column reinforcement, nasal tip reconstruction, and restoration of deformed structures. It is usually harvested from the 6th to 8th costal cartilage, and a thorough understanding of anatomy is essential for safe harvesting.
Autologous dermis
This procedure is used when the skin has become thin due to previous surgery or when there is a risk of direct exposure of cartilage. The dermis adds natural thickness and acts as a protective layer, resulting in stable, natural-looking results for patients with thin skin.
temporalis fascia
Fascia harvested from the temporal region is thin and flexible, and is often used to wrap over cartilage. It is particularly effective in softening the tissue's borders and preventing bleed-through, especially in cases where the skin is thin and the cartilage is likely to be visible.
autologous fat
It is used to supplement thinning skin or create a smooth contour. Injected in small amounts into the tip or bridge of the nose, it acts as a stabilizing supportive tissue between the cartilage and skin.
When non-implant rhinoplasty is needed
Target
- If your nose bridge isn't low to begin with
- If reoperation is required due to construction
- If you want a natural nose line while correcting your beak nose
- If you want natural movement and feel
- If you are very concerned about side effects
- If you feel aversion to artificial prosthetics
- In cases where it is difficult to use artificial prosthetics
Non-implant rhinoplasty surgery method
Step 01
Step 01
3D CT-based precision analysis and surgical planning
Precise analysis of nasal bone, cartilage, soft tissue, and skin thickness using 3D CT. Determining the type of autologous tissue to be used (nasal septum, ear cartilage, autologous rib, dermis, fascia, etc.)
Step 02
Step 02
Autologous tissue harvesting and processing
Septal cartilage, ear cartilage, costal cartilage, autologous dermis/temporal fascia/autologous fat
Step 03
Step 03
Nose tip support structure design
(DU SafeCore System applied)
A dual-column structure utilizing autologous tissue forms a central support structure. The nasal tip is triple-fixed and supports in four directions, maintaining a stable shape without sagging.
Step 04
Step 04
Nose line creation
(autologous tissue only, without prosthesis)
If necessary, autologous dermis, cartilage slices, fat, etc. are inserted thinly to form a natural line on the bridge of the nose.
In case of thin skin, fascia covering is applied in parallel to prevent penetration.
Step 05
Step 05
Adjusting the non-perpendicular angle, non-perpendicular position, and overall line organization
Set the nasolabial angle (95-105° for women, 90-95° for men) in harmony with the facial bone structure.
Finish with a smooth line from the beginning of the nose to the tip of the nose
Effect
Post-operative effects of non-implant rhinoplasty
- No worries about foreign body sensation or inflammation from the implant
- Complete a three-dimensional and sophisticated face
- No worries about side effects such as build-up
- Relatively quick recovery possible
- Completing a natural, soft and straight nose tip
After DU non-implant rhinoplasty
Postoperative Care
- To minimize swelling and bruising, we recommend using cold compresses for three days. Apply for 3 to 15 minutes, then rest for five minutes.
- You must sleep in an upright position for 7 days.
- Bruising, swelling, and pain may occur for a few days after surgery. These will disappear after about a week, depending on individual differences.
- Do not remove any bandages, plasters, or cotton after surgery.
- Accessories such as glasses and sunglasses may be worn after 4 weeks.
- You may experience symptoms such as tingling, pulling, tingling, and numbness for about a month, but this is normal.
- If you suddenly experience pain, swelling, or redness, please visit a hospital.
- Avoid contact with water around the stitches until the stitches are removed.
- You should refrain from exercising, saunas, steam rooms, drinking, and smoking for one month.
