Korekcja czubka nosa
Nasal tip correction (tip plasty) is a procedure of modelling only the cartilaginous part of the nose - its tip - without touching the bony part. It is a solution for patients bothered by a drooping, wide, upturned or asymmetrical nasal tip, while the nasal bridge remains normal.

Nasal tip correction - what does the procedure involve?
Nasal tip correction (tip plasty) is a surgical procedure aimed at modelling and refining the shape of the end of the nose. At Luna Clinic we most often perform this procedure under local anaesthesia. The procedure allows subtle improvement of the nose’s proportions, reduction of its tip, correction of asymmetry or drooping. The result is a more harmonious facial profile while maintaining a natural appearance.
Limiting the scope to the tip means a shorter procedure, less swelling and faster recovery than a full rhinoplasty - with no plaster dressing or only a short period of it. We model the alar cartilages with shaping sutures and precise resection.
Indications for the procedure
Whether the procedure is advisable for you is ultimately decided by the doctor during the consultation.
- A wide, overly massive nasal tip
- Drooping of the tip (especially when smiling)
- Asymmetry of the nasal tip
- Disproportion of the end of the nose to the rest of the structures
- Improving the results of previous nose operations
Contraindications
How to prepare for the procedure?
The procedure is always preceded by a qualification consultation with a plastic surgeon - we discuss expectations, examine the area to be operated on and establish an individual treatment plan. As standard, we order a full set of tests (blood count, coagulation, electrolytes, ECG for general anaesthesia) and, if necessary, additional specialist consultations.
- Consultation with a plastic surgeon - discussing indications and expectations
- Laboratory tests
- Stopping anticoagulant medications at least 14 days before the operation (after consulting a doctor)
- Avoiding alcohol and smoking for a minimum of 14 days before the procedure - for better healing
- Thorough facial-skin hygiene on the day of the procedure (no make-up, creams or lotions)
The nasal-tip-correction procedure step by step
Recovery and post-procedure recommendations
- Swelling and bruising are natural and diminish within 2-4 weeks
- Sleeping with the head elevated is recommended for the first few days
- Dressings and sutures cared for according to the doctor’s recommendations
- Sutures are usually removed after 7-14 days
- Avoiding intense physical exertion and bending over for a minimum of 4-6 weeks
- No sunbathing or use of a solarium for a minimum of 6 months - SPF 50 protection is necessary
- After full healing, scar massages and products supporting their maturation may be introduced - according to the doctor’s recommendation
- Check-ups: about 1 month after the procedure, then after 3, 6 and 12 months
Treatment effects
The result of nasal tip correction is a neater, raised and symmetrical tip, harmoniously matched to the rest of the nose and face. The initial effect is visible after the tapes are removed, and the final one after the tip swelling subsides, which takes 6-12 months (the nasal tip heals the longest).
The procedure improves the proportions of the nose and gives the tip a more delicate, more defined appearance. The effect is permanent but natural - without being overdone. The results are best assessed after full healing and the subsiding of the swelling, usually after about 3-6 months.
Possible complications and risks
Like any surgical procedure, this one also carries a certain risk - at Luna Clinic we minimise it through careful qualification, operating in operating-block conditions and the team’s experience. Possible complications include:
- Haematoma or bleeding requiring drainage
- Infection requiring antibiotic therapy
- Temporary or rarely permanent sensory disturbances in the face or auricle
- Hypertrophic or discoloured scars - minimised thanks to precise suturing technique
- Asymmetry requiring correction
- Longer-lasting swelling or bruising
- An unsatisfactory aesthetic result requiring possible re-operation
Frequently asked questions
Is the procedure painful?
The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia - the patient feels no pain.
Will I have scars?
With the open technique the scar on the columella is minimal and usually almost invisible after healing.
How long does the swelling last?
The largest swelling passes in 2-3 weeks. Full results are visible after a few months.
Is the effect permanent?
Yes - the cartilage correction has a lasting effect, although the facial ageing process continues.
When can I return to work?
Office work - usually after a few days.
Can I drive after the procedure?
Yes - if there was no sedation and you feel comfortable.
How long do I have to avoid sports?
A minimum of 2-3 weeks, then gradual introduction of activity.
Is the procedure only for women?
No - we also perform nasal tip correction on men.
Can it be combined with another procedure?
Yes - e.g. with eyelid surgery or a facelift.
Can I go home the same day?
Yes - most patients go home on the day of the procedure.
Does nasal tip correction require breaking bones?
No - the procedure concerns only the cartilages. This is precisely what distinguishes tip plasty from a full rhinoplasty and results in an easier recovery.
Do I wear a plaster after the procedure?
Usually modelling tapes for about 7 days are enough; a plaster is not needed, because the bony part of the nose remains intact.

What does nasal tip correction involve?
Nasal tip correction is a procedure in the field of plastic surgery. At Luna Clinic, every treatment plan is created individually - we start with a thorough consultation and qualification, during which the doctor discusses expectations, assesses the starting situation and selects the scope and technique of the procedure. Thanks to this, nasal tip correction is safe, predictable and tailored to the anatomy and real needs of the specific person. We focus on a natural rather than artificial effect - so that the result emphasises individual beauty and remains in harmony with the rest of the figure or facial features. You will find a full, detailed description of the method in the upper part of this page.
nasal tip correction - who is it for? Indications and qualification
The best way to answer whether nasal tip correction is advisable in your case is during a consultation. The doctor always decides on qualification after an examination - we take into account the state of health, expectations and the real possibilities of the given method. If the procedure is not needed or safe at the moment, we will say so directly and suggest a sensible alternative. Such an honest conversation is the basis of a good decision and satisfaction with the result - which is why we never persuade anyone into unnecessary procedures.
How does the procedure go?
The course is planned to take maximum care of your comfort and safety. We work in comfortable conditions that meet all standards, and an experienced team oversees the process. All recommendations - preparation, contraindications and post-procedure conduct - are discussed individually and also provided in writing, so that nasal tip correction proceeds calmly, predictably and without surprises.
Effects and durability - nasal tip correction before and after
The effects that nasal tip correction provides are always assessed individually. A natural, harmonious refreshment of appearance or an improvement of proportions is the goal we strive for with every patient. “Before and after” transformations are best viewed in our results gallery - they show the real outcomes of our work. Remember that the durability and quality of the effect are also influenced by lifestyle, care and consistent adherence to post-procedure recommendations.
Recovery and post-procedure recommendations
Recovery goes most smoothly when you follow the recommendations closely. After the procedure you remain under the clinic’s care - in the first days, contact with a doctor is available, and we schedule follow-up visits until full healing and assessment of the effect. You receive clear instructions on care, activity and any supporting products in writing, so you know exactly what to expect at each stage of returning to form.
Safety, experience and trust
Safety is an absolute priority for us. Nasal tip correction is performed by Dr Aleksandra Łuniewska - a plastic surgery specialist, with care for safety and an individual approach to the patient. Careful qualification, work in appropriate conditions and the team’s experience allow us to minimise risk and achieve repeatable, aesthetic results. In the field of plastic surgery, not only technique matters, but also aesthetic sense and trust between patient and doctor - and that is exactly what we build Luna Clinic on every day.
Why Luna Clinic?
Luna Clinic is an intimate, boutique clinic where not only the result matters, but also comfort, discretion and a sense of safety. We carry out nasal tip correction with attention to every detail - from the first conversation, through the procedure itself, to post-procedure care. Patients choose us for the experience of our specialists, the individual approach and the natural, harmonious results. It matters to us that every person feels heard and well informed, which is why we present the real possibilities and limitations of the given method and choose the best solution together.
How to prepare for the procedure?
Good preparation translates directly into the course and the effect. Before nasal tip correction we conduct a qualification consultation, order tests if necessary and discuss the recommendations in detail - including which agents, stimulants or activities to avoid in the days preceding the procedure. You receive all the guidance clearly and in writing, and our team remains available should any additional questions arise. We always tailor the preparation plan individually, because every situation and every patient is different.
