I’ve heard about the Korean nose lifting stick for quite some time. Doctor, could you please explain what this tool actually is and whether it truly works? Should I buy one to use at home, or is surgery the only effective option?

Hello there, recently I’ve noticed quite a lot of advertisements circulating about the so-called Korean nose lifting stick or Korean nose lifting device, often promoted with promises like “instant nose lift, no surgery, completely safe.” However, in reality, the effectiveness and safety of these products are far from what those advertisements claim, so you need to understand them clearly to avoid being misled.

What Is the Korean Nose Lifting Stick?

The Korean nose lifting stick, also known as a Korean nose lifting device, is a small plastic or metal tool, usually shaped like a rod or a curved stick. It’s advertised as something that can be inserted into the nostrils to create internal pressure, supposedly lifting the nasal bridge to make it appear higher.

The common issue with all these products is that there is no clinical research proving their effectiveness. Medically speaking, the nasal bridge is a complex structure made up of bone, cartilage, and soft tissue. Simply using mechanical pressure from a nose lifting stick cannot permanently change the shape, height, or structure of the nose. On the contrary, incorrect usage may lead to nasal mucosa abrasions, infections, or airway damage.

Is the Korean Nose Lifting Device Effective?

To be clear — the Korean nose lifting device does not produce long-lasting results. If you use it temporarily, your nose might look slightly higher due to short-term compression, but once removed, it will return to its original shape. This is merely a temporary visual effect and has no actual reshaping or structural improvement benefits.

Moreover, overusing such mechanical lifting tools can pose several risks:

  • Damage to nasal mucosa: Frequent friction can cause bleeding and pain.
  • Infection risk: The nasal cavity is a moist environment, and if the device is not sterile, bacteria can easily multiply.
  • Airway obstruction: It may cause discomfort, nasal congestion, or chronic sinus inflammation.

Therefore, you should be cautious and not place your trust in exaggerated claims about these Korean nose lifting devices.

Effective and Long-Lasting Surgical Rhinoplasty Methods

To achieve a naturally beautiful, safe, and long-lasting nose shape, only medically performed aesthetic rhinoplasty procedures can provide true results:

  • Rhinoplasty using artificial implants (silicone, Gore-Tex): Helps define a higher and slimmer nasal bridge.
  • Autologous cartilage rhinoplasty: Uses ear or rib cartilage for shaping, minimizing complications and ensuring natural results.
  • 4D Structural Rhinoplasty: Reconstructs the nasal bridge, tip, and columella comprehensively, correcting all defects and maintaining stability over time.

These techniques are performed in a modern medical environment by qualified plastic surgeons, ensuring both safety and superior aesthetic outcomes.

Hopefully, after this explanation, you now better understand the true nature of the Korean nose lifting stick and why it doesn’t deliver real results.
