If You’ve Had Filler, Nose Revision Surgery at Sinsa Station Is Even More Difficult.

Among the many types of plastic surgery,

rhinoplasty is one of the most popular procedures.

Perhaps that is why many people visit

April 31 Plastic Surgery Clinic, which specializes in rhinoplasty,

to receive rhinoplasty consultations.

Although they share the common point

of seeking rhinoplasty consultation,

patients come in with different cases.

Some are having surgery for the first time,

while others are seeking revision surgery.

Among them, there are also quite a few

people who have had filler procedures

and then come in considering rhinoplasty.

In such cases, although it may be the first time

having nose surgery,

they have already had filler procedures,

so it falls under revision surgery

and can be considered a difficult procedure.

That is why, for a highly satisfactory result,

we recommend seeing Director Kim Jae-hoon,

who is known for doing nose revision surgery well

at Sinsa Station.

Q1. What is filler nose revision surgery? Filler nose revision surgery refers to cases in which rhinoplasty is performed after receiving filler treatments multiple times. In such cases, the remaining filler is dissolved before proceeding, but it often does not fully dissolve, so a high-level technique is required that removes both the filler and scar tissue together. In some cases, dermis-fat grafting is performed as well to reinforce thin skin and maintain volume.

Q2. Is nose surgery after filler considered a first-time rhinoplasty? If someone who has previously received filler treatment undergoes rhinoplasty, we can say it is revision surgery. Compared with a nose that has not received filler, a nose with filler requires work to dissolve and scrape out the remaining filler. This process is difficult and highly technical, so it must be performed by experienced medical staff with extensive surgical experience.

Why is filler rhinoplasty difficult?

Removing filler that remains in the nose is not an easy task. It may not be limited to just one area, and can remain deeply between the bridge of the nose and the tissue inside the glabella area, so this is a highly advanced and delicate procedure.

In addition, each patient has a different case, such as those who received an excessive amount beyond the appropriate dose, those who have undergone multiple filler re-injections, or those whose filler was placed a long time ago. Therefore, customized surgery suited to each case must be performed.

These days, some people raise the nose with filler, and others use threads, such as the Hi-Nose method, to increase height.

In such cases, even if the material dissolves, threads may remain embedded between structures, so they must be checked and removed. If nose surgery is performed without finding the thread, an inflammatory reaction may occur later, making revision surgery unavoidable.

Because the procedure requires checking for filler, tissue, mucosa, and spaces between structures, we recommend receiving treatment from medical staff with a high level of skill and extensive experience.

We will show results with more than 30 years of experience.

As it is even more delicate than the first surgery, please thoroughly look into clinics that are good at nose revision surgery at Sinsa Station, make a careful decision after visiting for consultation, and proceed cautiously.

Just as eye surgery is commonly done these days, nose surgery is also common and may seem simple, but it is one of the procedures that requires skill. Moreover, if you have had filler treatment, don’t simply choose a clinic based on price or convenience of location. Please receive treatment at a hospital where medical staff specializing in nose revision surgery are available.
