Among nasal revision surgeries, the worst complication may be revision surgery for contracted nose.
AB Plastic Surgery will explain revision surgery for contracted nose in detail and also tell you how to avoid it.
We will go over this in detail through this post, so if you are considering nasal revision surgery, please read this carefully^^
What is contracted nose?
If, after rhinoplasty, the nose becomes stiff or lifts higher over time, and you have experienced this, that is what is commonly called a “contracted nose” symptom.
It mainly occurs when inflammation or excessive scar tissue forms around the implant,
and as time passes, not only appearance but also functional problems such as breathing may occur.

The photos after surgery may differ from the actual results due to the shooting environment, lighting, makeup, and other factors.
Results vary by individual, and through an accurate consultation, you can check the procedure results that are suitable for you.
Contracted nose: be cautious if you have these symptoms
※ A nose bridge that has sunk or is crooked
※ A nose tip that lifts up and looks like a pig nose
※ A nose that feels hard and stiff when pressed
※ A nose whose shape moves awkwardly when smiling
※ A nose that feels pulled tight and stuffy inside
If you have these symptoms, you may want to suspect the possibility of contracted nose rather than simple swelling.
At AB Plastic Surgery, we carefully assess your current condition through an accurate diagnosis and perform revision surgery when necessary.
AB Plastic Surgery nasal revision surgery POINT

AB Plastic Surgery uses 3D-CT to accurately diagnose the problems from the first surgery,
as well as the nose’s external appearance and internal functional issues, before performing surgery.

The photos after surgery may differ from the actual results due to the shooting environment, lighting, makeup, and other factors.
Results vary by individual, and through an accurate consultation, you can check the procedure results that are suitable for you.
We also identify each person’s different facial shape and volume to create a natural line.
In addition, we find your own ideal nasolabial angle and philtrum ratio to create a refined nose line that best suits your face.

Can contracted nose improve naturally?
If you have contracture symptoms, they do not naturally recover over time and may gradually worsen.
In particular, if the tissue around the implant becomes hardened and deformed, and even the cartilage is damaged, revision surgery for contracted nose is absolutely necessary.
At AB Plastic Surgery, we assess the degree of contracture progression and, as a rule, perform revision surgery for contracted nose safely at the appropriate time.
When is the right time for revision surgery for contracted nose?
※ If more than 6 months have passed since the first surgery and signs of contracture are visible
※ When inflammation has completely subsided and the nose shape has stabilized
※ If you feel not only aesthetic discomfort but also functional discomfort
At AB Plastic Surgery, we determine the timing of surgery while considering 충분한 recovery time,
and establish the optimal revision surgery plan for contracted nose through personalized consultation.

Contracted nose can become more complicated the longer it is left untreated.
If you are feeling discomfort now, before it gets worse, we hope you can restore a healthy and natural nose line
through AB Plastic Surgery’s revision surgery for contracted nose.
