When the tip of the nose lifts after nose surgery,
the nose may look like a pig’s nose.
This is called a contracted nose.
If you have looked into side effects of nose surgery,
you may have heard of this condition at least once.
If a contracted nose occurs and is left untreated,
it can cause problems with both the appearance of the nose
and its function,
so revision surgery should be performed
as soon as possible.

There are cases where revision surgery is performed multiple times.
To avoid repeating revision surgery like this,
you should look into a place that is good at revision surgery for contracted noses,
and check the skills of the doctor stationed there,
whether they can accurately identify the cause and condition of the revision nose surgery, and so on
before proceeding.

At April 31 Plastic Surgery,
before revision surgery for a contracted nose,
we make an accurate assessment through consultation with the doctor
as well as a 3D-CT device.
Through soft-tissue linkage and ultra-low-dose
3D-CT imaging, we can analyze the cause more accurately and precisely.
And Dr. Kim Jae-hoon, the head doctor and board-certified plastic surgeon with 30 years of experience,
creates a surgery schedule tailored to each person’s nasal condition,
and performs surgery through customized design
so that a beautiful nose can be maintained even 10 years later.

Why does a contracted nose happen?
Among the causes of a contracted nose,
a representative one is that it can occur because of artificial implants.
During the original surgery, if artificial implants are used,
foreign body reactions or infection may cause inflammation,
which can lead to a contracted nose.
At April 31 Plastic Surgery,
in revision surgery for a contracted nose,
to prevent recurrence,
we safely use your own tissue or autologous dermis.

Revision surgery for a contracted nose,
how can it be done safely
without recurrence?
As mentioned earlier, a contracted nose is
mostly caused by foreign body reactions or infection from implants,
so using your own tissue or autologous dermis
can help minimize recurrence.
The autologous tissue rhinoplasty mentioned here refers to a method
of creating the shape without inserting implants,
by using your own tissue on the bridge or tip of the nose.
The autologous tissues used include various materials such as ear cartilage,
costal cartilage, autologous dermal tissue, and ear cartilage.

Contracted nose surgery,
please consider it if the following applies to you.
If your nose is lifted and your nostrils are very visible,
if your nose feels hard and does not move,
if your nose turns red and is accompanied by warmth,
if there is a strong smell inside the nose and discomfort,
and so on—if any of the above apply to you,
we recommend visiting a place that is good at revision surgery for contracted noses
for a consultation.
Contracted nose surgery is the most difficult
among various revision nose surgery cases.
Therefore, we recommend receiving a customized consultation
and having surgery with a specialist medical team that has extensive experience
in contracted nose surgery.
Do not worry any longer about contracted nose symptoms,
and visit April 31 Plastic Surgery, where Dr. Kim Jae-hoon,
a plastic surgery specialist with 30 years of experience,
is on site, and we hope you can meet an even more beautiful nose.
Thank you!
