Where to Get Good Rhinoplasty?
<Selection Criteria> According to Director Lee Kyung-mook

Hello.
This is 오브제성형외과.
When looking for a place that is good at rhinoplasty,
there comes a moment when
you actually feel even more overwhelmed.
Every clinic says
that it is confident in its skills,
and every review tells a different story,
so the more you read,
the more confused you become.
Those of you who clicked on this title
are probably looking for a way
to identify a good clinic in the end.
So today,
I would like to tell you right away
how to identify a good clinic.
If you read to the end,
you will also have a clear list of the key points
you should обязательно check when visiting consultations.
To identify a place that is good at rhinoplasty,
check whether they advise you against surgery

It may sound a little strange, right?
You are looking for a place that performs surgery well,
but I am telling you to look for a place
that may advise you against surgery.
But there is a reason I say this.
A place that is good at rhinoplasty
does not recommend every procedure unconditionally.
Rather, a clinic that advises against surgery
or suggests changing the approach
is more trustworthy.
The reason is simple.
The nose is a structure
whose skin, cartilage, and bone
support one another to create its shape.
No matter how attractive the desired design may be,
if your current nasal structure cannot support it,
it may look fine immediately after surgery,
but its shape can become distorted over time.

That is why the more experienced the medical professional,
the more they consider first
not “How can we make it higher?”
but “What result is possible with this nose?”
When identifying a good clinic,
you should first check whether it explains in advance
which results are achievable and which are difficult.
Then, in what situations would surgery
actually be approached cautiously?
Let’s look at two representative cases.
Reduce a bulbous nose and raise only the tip?
Think twice about this combination!
There is a combination
we often encounter during consultations.

Some people want to improve a bulbous nose
and raise the tip,
but do not want an implant
or any work done on the bridge.
At first glance, this may seem like a reasonable request,
but satisfying all four conditions at the same time
is more difficult than you might think.
To refine a bulbous nose,
it is not enough simply to reduce the soft tissue at the tip;
the supporting column beneath the tip
also needs to be established.
The problem arises when only the tip is raised
while the bridge remains low.
The bridge stays low
while only the tip projects forward,
causing the proportions of the nose
to break down in profile.

For a natural profile,
the line from the bridge to the tip
must connect smoothly,
but raising only the tip can interrupt that connection
and create an awkward appearance.
That is why a clinic that is good at rhinoplasty
will explain to people seeking correction of a bulbous nose
that the bridge and tip should be designed together
in balance, rather than focusing only on the tip.
Compared with a place that simply accepts your requested conditions
and proceeds directly to surgery,
a place that brings up these proportions first
is more likely to produce a satisfactory result.
Give up because the septum is deviated?
Just change the “method”
The second case is when the nasal septum
is deviated.

The nasal septum is the cartilage column
in the center of the nose that divides the left and right nostrils
and supports the nose as a whole.
In terms of a building,
it is a pillar that keeps the structure centered.
If this pillar is bent,
anything built on top of it
will be affected.
If surgery strongly raises the tip
while the septum is significantly deviated,
the force exerted by the bent supporting column
can create a tendency for the tip
to turn in the opposite direction.

For example, if the column bends to the left,
the tip may be pushed toward the right.
There is an important point here.
A deviated septum does not mean
that rhinoplasty is impossible.
The key is how the method
for raising the tip is selected.
There are two main ways
to support the nasal tip.

One is the extension method,
which connects cartilage to the septum
to create a high and firmly supported tip.
It provides strong support and is advantageous
for raising the tip clearly,
but when applied to someone with a significantly deviated septum,
the possibility that the tip may be pushed to one side
also increases.

The other is the strut method,
which places a small support beneath the nasal tip
in the column area.
The degree of change is relatively subtle,
but it can help the tip settle stably
even when the septum is deviated.
Therefore, for people with a deviated septum,
choosing a natural change within the range
that the structure can support
may be more appropriate
than pursuing an unconditionally high and dramatic tip.
When identifying a place that is good at rhinoplasty,
the second point to examine is whether the clinic
first discusses this structural aspect during the consultation
and distinguishes between the available methods.
Today, we summarized two situations
that should be considered when evaluating a good clinic.
When the bridge is low and you want
correction of a bulbous nose and tip surgery without an implant,
or when the septum is significantly deviated,
the balance of the nasal structure
should be considered before the desired design
in order to achieve a satisfactory result.
Director Lee Kyung-mook of 오브제성형외과
analyzes the bridge, tip, and condition of the septum
together as a single structure before surgery,
explains which results are possible with the current nose
and which are difficult,
and then determines the surgical approach.

In addition to procedures such as correction of a bulbous nose,
where designing balance is important,
we also perform revision rhinoplasty
to rebuild noses whose structure has collapsed.
For this reason, we put particular effort
into designing the nose from the beginning
so that its structure can withstand the changes.
If you are looking for a place that is good at rhinoplasty,
rather than choosing a place that simply accepts
the shape you want,
we recommend checking whether it first explains
the structure and limitations of your nose.
