Hello. We are Merry Plastic Surgery Clinic, pursuing natural and beautiful changes.
Even if people have different perspectives and assign different meanings to things, the essence of seeking overall aesthetic satisfaction is the same.
That is why, these days, many people who want to pursue beauty often consider plastic surgery that changes their fundamental appearance.
Plastic surgery is focused particularly on the face and features that draw a lot of attention when meeting others, but it has also expanded to the chest and overall body lines, and even to the entire body.
Still, if we were to name the areas that remain popular and are continuously loved by many people who hope to undergo plastic surgery, the nose and eyes would undoubtedly come to mind.
Especially the nose sits at the center of the face, and depending on its angle, shape, and height, it can greatly change the image and is also a factor that makes the face appear larger or smaller.
However, since the nose is an area where capillaries and nerves are concentrated, careful consideration is needed before surgery.
Moreover, because the nose is the area that governs breathing and supplies the oxygen needed by the body, it is better to have surgery with its original function in mind.
Furthermore, did you know that if breathing is not smooth due to structural problems in the nose, you can correct the shape of the nose through rhinoplasty and also make breathing more comfortable?
Today, while introducing the types of functional rhinoplasty near Sinsa Station, we will also cover improvement methods for each type.
What Is Functional Rhinoplasty?

Functional rhinoplasty refers to improving functional discomfort at the same time as cosmetic surgery when the shape of the nose causes difficulty with its original function of breathing.
The main types of functional rhinoplasty near Sinsa Station include a deviated septum, nasal valve stenosis, and rhinitis.
These types of functional rhinoplasty near Sinsa Station can vary in shape and severity depending on the individual, and visible external problems may also stand out.
The problems associated with each type of functional rhinoplasty near Sinsa Station are as follows.

👃 Hypertrophic Rhinitis
This is an inflammatory disease that occurs in the mucous membrane covering the inside of the nose, and it may develop due to allergies or structural changes inside the nose, causing symptoms such as nasal congestion, itching, and sneezing.
To resolve structural problems inside the nose, surgery may be needed to reduce the enlarged mucosal tissue and improve nasal congestion, reduced sense of smell, headaches, and more.
👃 Deviated Septum
This refers to a case in which the septal cartilage, the wall that vertically divides the nostrils in the center of the nose, is curved into a C or S shape. In severe cases, various complications such as snoring, headaches, and sleep disorders may occur.
By straightening the deviated septum, removing excess cartilage, and then fixing it to the anterior nasal spine, septal correction and correction of the nasal line were possible.
👃 Nasal Valve Stenosis
The nasal valve, the passage located in the upper part of the empty space inside the nose, plays an important role in regulating breathing.
Narrowing of this space is called nasal valve stenosis, and it may be accompanied by nasal congestion, sleep disorders, and migraines.
What Are the Improvement Methods by Type of Functional Rhinoplasty Near Sinsa Station?
As explained earlier, these types of functional rhinoplasty near Sinsa Station can show different levels of symptoms depending on the individual.
Therefore, the key is to fully understand the symptoms and accompanying issues, carefully analyze the internal condition, and perform surgery for nasal disease together with rhinoplasty at the same time.
👃 Inferior Turbinate Reduction Surgery

When the inferior turbinate mucosa becomes thickened due to structural problems such as rhinitis or a deviated septum, improvement may be possible through inferior turbinate reduction surgery.
By osteotomizing the inferior turbinate outward to widen the airway and using radiofrequency to compress the mucosa, airflow can be made smoother.
👃 Septoplasty for Deviated Septum

In cases of a deviated septum where the septal cartilage is bent, the deviated septum can be properly corrected, and reinforcement grafting can help prevent the same problem from recurring.
Depending on the nose design, an implant may additionally be needed.
👃 Nasal Valve Stenosis

When breathing becomes difficult because the nasal valve passage has narrowed, surgery to widen the nasal valve is performed depending on the condition.
Depending on the situation, various areas of the nasal valve, such as the internal nasal valve and external nasal valve, can be widened.
