In Barbie nose, also known as baby-doll nose rhinoplasty, either closed or open rhinoplasty techniques can be used. During the procedure, the tip of the nose is lifted within natural limits, creating a slightly upturned, small, and delicately curved appearance. This technique is often preferred by individuals who desire a graceful nasal curve—especially younger women. While performing the procedure, the patient’s facial structure must be carefully evaluated. The nostrils are shaped according to the new nasal form, and the dorsal curve is adjusted to harmonize with the face.
In recent years, Barbie nose rhinoplasty has become one of the most requested techniques among young women and increasingly among young men as well. Whether performed using an open or closed approach, the main goal is to create a subtle curve and gently lift the nasal tip in a way that best suits the patient’s facial proportions. Although commonly chosen by women, it is now frequently performed on suitable male patients too.
Who is suitable for Barbie nose rhinoplasty?
This technique is ideal for patients who will maintain a natural-looking nose after surgery. For this reason, a detailed examination is performed—from nostril shape to facial structure, mouth profile, and nasal tip condition. If the evaluation indicates that a lifted, curved nose will look natural, the procedure can be performed safely. In patients where this shape would not create a natural appearance, I inform them that the preference may not be ideal.
This operation is relatively short, with minimal bruising and swelling.
