Nasal Base Implant
Prosthesis Surgery to Correct the Nasal Root and Nasal Base
Recommended for
- Those concerned about depression or flatness at the nasal root (nasal base)
- Those who want to enhance the three-dimensional definition around the mouth and nose area
- Those with insufficient volume in the subnose area (nasal base/paranasal region)
- Those who want to improve the base along with other nasal surgeries (full nose surgery/alarplasty)
What is Nasal Base Implant?
Nasal base implant is a surgical procedure in which a small silicone prosthesis is inserted under the skin at the nasal root (nasal base/area around the piriform aperture) to enhance the volume and three-dimensional definition of this area. Since the implant is inserted through a small incision made inside the nostril, there is virtually no visible scarring on the outside.
What changes can be expected?
By filling in the depression or lack of volume at the nasal base, the three-dimensional definition around the nose increases and the lateral profile line becomes more refined. Additionally, by supplementing the nasal base, the balance of the nasolabial angle (the transition area between the nose base and upper lip) may be improved (individual variation applies). The changes from this procedure alone are often limited, and it is frequently combined with other nasal surgeries.
Surgical Overview
A small incision is made inside the nostril, and a pocket is created either under the periosteum (beneath the bone surface) or on the periosteum, in which the prosthesis is inserted. After insertion, suturing completes the procedure. The surgery takes a relatively short time and is performed as a same-day outpatient procedure under local anesthesia.
Downtime Guidelines
After surgery, swelling and discomfort around the nose will persist for approximately 1-2 weeks. There is virtually no external scarring, and in most cases visible swelling subsides within about one week (individual variation applies). The final result can be expected around 1-3 months post-surgery.
Features
Virtually no visible external scarring
Since the incision is limited to the nasal cavity, no scarring remains on the outside of the face.
Can be performed simultaneously with other nasal surgeries
Simultaneous surgery is possible with procedures such as septal extension, nasal tip refinement, and alarplasty. Multiple areas can be improved in a single downtime period.

FAQ
Will the prosthesis look natural?
Since insertion at the nasal base has limited direction of change, the main effect is adding natural three-dimensional definition rather than creating excessive changes. The larger the prosthesis inserted, the greater the change, but the possibility of appearing unnatural also increases. Please consult with us during your examination, including simulation (individual variation applies).
Ask ZetithAI about this →Can the prosthesis be removed later?
The prosthesis can be removed or exchanged if needed. A capsule (scar tissue) may form after insertion, but in most cases removal is possible.
Ask ZetithAI about this →Can it be performed simultaneously with alarplasty?
Simultaneous surgery is possible, and we perform combined procedures at our clinic. By performing reduction and base reinforcement at the same time, it becomes easier to balance the entire nose.
