If you're 고민 about which plastic surgery clinic in Gangnam is best for revision rhinoplasty

Sometimes people misunderstand. They think that the reason other people, excluding themselves, style their appearance is to look good to others. But in fact, as with yourself, the main reason everyone styles their appearance is self-satisfaction. When you look in the mirror and see a beautiful face, your self-esteem goes up.

Especially recently, thanks to the development of medical technology, becoming beautiful has become more accessible than before, so many more people are considering aesthetic procedures.

Among plastic surgery procedures, the areas most people choose are the eyes and the nose. That is because they are the most important parts in determining a person’s impression. In particular, the nose is the most three-dimensional area of the face, and although we may not think much of it, even a small change can greatly improve the overall image, which is why many people decide to undergo rhinoplasty.

  But did you know that rhinoplasty is one of the procedures with a relatively high revision rate among plastic surgeries?

Because the overall surgery rate is high and the surgical method and aesthetic sense of the medical team determine the outcome,

it is common for secondary problems to arise, such as the tip of the nose becoming upturned or the implant moving excessively,

even if the first surgery seemed successful.

This is especially because the nose often involves inserting an external material.

For those considering revision rhinoplasty, there are likely many who worry about failing again,

and the cost can also feel burdensome.

In addition, if you look up various reviews, you may have seen people repeatedly searching for a Gangnam clinic that is good at revision rhinoplasty not just once, but after several failed attempts,

and I think it is natural to feel fear when seeing those stories.

The nose is, of course, important in terms of appearance, but it also plays an important functional role.

That is why, when looking for a clinic in Gangnam that is good at revision rhinoplasty, it is important to identify the cause of the revision and find a place where both function and aesthetics can be satisfied.

  For those looking for a clinic in Gangnam that is good at revision rhinoplasty,

there are patients who visit with a variety of causes.

And only when the appropriate method is applied according to each cause can the desired results be expected.

First, if the space for the implant is偏 to one side or was made in a way that does not match the shape of the bridge, so the nasal bridge is crooked,

we create equal space on both sides for the implant and insert it.

A slight movement of an implant placed in the nose is not necessarily a problem, but when the silicone is not fixed in the correct position,

and the implant moves significantly,

we place the implant precisely under the periosteum and secure it.

If the skin is naturally thin or has become thinner after surgery and the implant shows through,

we improve it by wrapping the implant once with the temporal fascia before inserting it, and in severe cases, we also raise it using only autologous dermis or cartilage.

If the implant height was designed incorrectly without considering facial balance, so the nasal bridge is too low or too high,

it can be simply improved by raising or lowering the height of the implant used, considering the overall facial proportions.

If the implant used does not match the base of the bone or the skin has become thinner, there can be visible implant edges on both sides of the nose. In this case, if it is caused by not matching the base of the bone, we carve the implant to match the base and make both sides smooth before inserting a new one. If the skin has become thin, we perform a corrective procedure to reinforce the thin skin.

If the implant is extended too far to the tip of the nose or the tip becomes upturned due to contracture, the tip may become stiff and unable to move. In such cases, before the tip turns red and deforms, we adjust the length of the implant or lower the upturned tip with dynamic tip rhinoplasty.

  In particular, among the various cases, if you are planning another surgery because the tip became upturned after nose surgery, simply lowering the tip with autologous cartilage may allow it to rise again over time.

At 4월31일, dynamic tip surgery lowers the tip using autologous cartilage and firmly fixes it to the lower lateral cartilage, preventing it from rising again over time and improving the tip smoothly.

Since an upturned tip is a case with a high chance of recurrence, there may be cases where cartilage is insufficient due to multiple revision surgeries. In such cases, rib cartilage can be used to raise the nasal bridge and extend the length of the tip. 

More than anything else, to properly identify the cause, it is necessary to perform a proper examination of the inside of the nose.

At our clinic, we use advanced 3D-CT to understand the current condition of the nose and the structure of the bone and soft tissue at the same time, so we can provide an accurate diagnosis and plan an appropriate surgical plan.
