Hello, we are A+ Clinic, offering both breathing freedom and a beautiful nose shape at the same time.
As the changing seasons approach these days, inquiries about rhinitis rhinoplasty are increasing.
Especially during seasonal transitions, nasal congestion caused by rhinitis becomes more severe.
So today, we have prepared information about rhinitis treatment and rhinitis surgery.

What is rhinitis?
Rhinitis is broadly classified into allergic rhinitis and structural rhinitis caused by abnormalities in the internal structure of the nose.
Allergic rhinitis is a type of rhinitis that reacts to specific substances such as mites, pollen, food, and dust,
and it is related to an individual's constitution.
However, allergic rhinitis does not improve through surgery,
and steady medication treatment along with health management that can strengthen one’s immune system should come first.

What is rhinitis rhinoplasty at A+ Clinic?
It is a surgery that performs rhinitis surgery and rhinoplasty at the same time.
Using cartilage that is inevitably removed during rhinitis surgery, it can correct the height and shape of the nasal tip,
so it can be considered a two-in-one surgery.
Also, in the case of rhinitis rhinoplasty, for functional nasal surgery only,
out-of-pocket insurance reimbursement benefits may be available, which can reduce the financial burden.

What are rhinitis symptoms?
Primary symptoms - nasal congestion, runny nose, sneezing
Secondary symptoms - headache, chronic fatigue, loss of appetite, facial deformity.

Because rhinitis surgery is a high-difficulty procedure, it should be performed at a place with excellent skills and abundant experience,
only after examinations are conducted, so that rhinitis can be overcome and satisfaction with the nose’s appearance and shape can be improved.

Rhinitis surgery must be approached carefully because it requires a thorough evaluation of inflammation formed inside the nose, deviated septum, and nasal valve stenosis.
Also, many people tend to think that allergic rhinitis is only a temporary symptom,
but if the issue is caused by problems inside the nose as described above, prompt action is necessary.

A deviated septum that can be a cause of rhinitis
Accurate analysis and diagnosis are important.
A deviated septum refers to a condition in which the septum, the wall that divides the nostrils into two, is bent and causes functional abnormalities in the nose.
It occurs due to genetic factors, but is most often caused by trauma, and can lead to hypertrophic rhinitis and migraines due to nasal congestion.
Surgery to correct a deviated septum is a high-difficulty procedure, so it is important to have it performed by an experienced specialist who understands the structure of the nose well. To reduce the possibility of side effects,
it is important to minimize resection of the septal cartilage and to lower the risk of recurrence through abundant clinical experience and analysis of accumulated data.
At A+ Clinic, we can not only correct a deviated septum to resolve nasal congestion, but also use the removed septal cartilage
as material for rhinoplasty to create a beautiful nasal line.
A+ Clinic’s deviated septum surgery pursues both the health and beauty of the nose at the same time.

The main symptoms indicating the need for rhinitis surgery are a deviated septum and inferior turbinate hypertrophy.
A deviated septum means that the septal cartilage inside the nose is bent, causing nasal congestion, headaches, and breathing problems,
and inferior turbinate hypertrophy also causes nasal congestion as the inferior turbinates on both sides of the nose become enlarged.
In cases of rhinitis caused by inferior turbinate hypertrophy, laser surgery to adjust the width of the inferior turbinates and rhinoplasty should be performed,
whereas in cases of a deviated septum, the crooked septum should be corrected first, and then rhinoplasty should be performed.
If, during rhinitis rhinoplasty, the appropriate rhinitis surgery is not performed according to the symptoms, the rhinitis symptoms may not improve at all,
and you may even feel that they have worsened.
Therefore, at A+ Clinic, accurately identifying the symptoms and choosing only the appropriate surgical method for them
is the only way to minimize the possibility of rhinitis revision surgery.

A+ Clinic rhinitis rhinoplasty diagnostic system
At A+ Clinic, to perform rhinitis rhinoplasty that is appropriate for each patient, we conduct precise 3D-CT imaging before surgery and
internal endoscopic imaging, and then select and proceed only with the surgery that matches the resulting data.
