Rhinitis Surgery Review Based on an Accurate Diagnosis

Hello. Oziko Plastic Surgery & N Plus has spent the past 16 years thinking only about your beautiful and healthy nose.

What we have prepared this time is a review of rhinitis surgery performed with an accurate diagnosis.

In modern times, interest in plastic surgery is increasing as a way to make up for parts of one’s appearance. Among facial features, even a small change to the nose, which is the center of the face, can be very effective in improving an image that may have felt lacking, so many people seek information about nose surgery.

Accordingly, many people want to improve the shape of the nose so that it becomes straight and balanced, whether it is low, drooping, upturned, humped, or crooked. The nose plays an important role not only in appearance but also as a functional organ responsible for breathing and smell, and it plays an important role throughout our body. As a result, functional concerns can also be improved through nose surgery. In cases where functional rhinoplasty is performed, the most common symptom is nasal congestion caused by rhinitis. Therefore, those who feel functional discomfort may want to look into rhinitis surgery reviews in more detail.

As mentioned earlier, rhinitis is described as a condition whose functional discomfort can be improved through surgery. Rhinitis is a common condition affecting more than 70% of adults in Korea, and it causes nasal congestion, sneezing, and a runny nose. Of these, 20% are allergic rhinitis, while the remaining 80% are structural rhinitis caused by abnormalities in the internal structure. In the case of allergic rhinitis, because it is affected by specific substances and weather conditions, a cure is difficult, and continued efforts to strengthen immunity and medication treatment can be helpful. In the case of structural rhinitis, a cure is possible through surgery. The causes of structural rhinitis include a deviated septum, inferior turbinate hypertrophy, and nasal valve stenosis. Therefore, for those looking into rhinitis surgery reviews, it may be helpful to consider not only the images in the reviews but also the details.

However, since it is difficult to determine with the naked eye whether rhinitis is allergic rhinitis or structural rhinitis, accurate diagnosis using various devices is necessary so that surgery tailored to each individual can be performed, helping prevent symptoms from recurring after surgery.

Also, if you look at rhinitis surgery reviews, there are many cases in which functional nose surgery is performed together with cosmetic nose surgery. Therefore, to accurately diagnose your nose, it is helpful to consult after checking whether the medical team has a high level of anatomical knowledge of the nose, whether they have sufficient experience and expertise, whether they have equipment that can accurately assess the condition of your nose, and whether aftercare can be firmly guaranteed, along with rhinitis surgery reviews. This can lead to a more satisfying rhinitis surgery experience.

At Oziko Plastic Surgery & N Plus, to ensure a safe and satisfying rhinitis surgery experience, we accurately identify the cause of rhinitis through preoperative 3D-CT scans, internal endoscopic imaging, various allergy tests, and internal nasal function tests. Based on the extracted data, we establish a plan and select the method and materials so that surgery tailored to the individual is performed.

If you look at rhinitis surgery reviews, the surgical methods are broadly divided according to symptoms such as a deviated septum, inferior turbinate hypertrophy, and nasal valve stenosis. A deviated septum refers to a condition in which the septum, which acts as the partition dividing the nostrils into two, is bent. Surgery is performed to straighten the septum. Inferior turbinate hypertrophy refers to a condition in which the inferior turbinates, the tissue inside the nose, become enlarged, and their size is adjusted using a laser. Nasal valve stenosis refers to a condition in which the nasal valve, which serves as the roof of the nose, narrows and becomes constricted, and this valve is treated using one of four methods. Although these are different forms of structural rhinitis, they all commonly obstruct the flow of air entering through the nose and cause nasal congestion. Therefore, the surgical method must be selected according to the symptoms so that airflow into the nose becomes smooth and nasal congestion can be corrected. In the case of structural rhinitis, symptoms may occur on their own, but in complex cases, correction is performed through additional surgery and procedures.

In addition, if you look at rhinitis surgery reviews, you can see that it is often not performed as a standalone rhinitis surgery, but rather that areas the patient felt were lacking are corrected through cosmetic nose surgery. In cosmetic nose surgery performed after rhinitis surgery, the bridge is corrected with silicone and the tip is corrected with autologous cartilage.

As you can see in rhinitis surgery reviews, the autologous cartilage used for the nasal tip varies from person to person. This may differ depending on the size and shape of the cartilage, and surgery is performed using materials suited to the individual through preoperative examinations. Autologous cartilage includes ear cartilage, septal cartilage, and autologous rib cartilage.

In the case of silicone used for the bridge of the nose, rather than using commercially available silicone as is, the silicone is carefully shaped and used after being custom-designed for each individual, taking into account various aspects such as the person’s overall image and the width, length, breadth, and height of the nasal bridge. This allows for a more satisfying rhinitis surgery experience.

At Oziko Plastic Surgery & N Plus, Director Yoon Hyun-cheol is exclusively responsible for each patient and personally handles the entire process, from consultation regarding rhinitis surgery to establishing the surgical plan, performing the surgery, treatment, and follow-up care, allowing you to receive a high level of medical service from before surgery through aftercare.

Aftercare is also provided through an A/S system that guarantees support for one year after surgery, as well as a surgical responsibility guarantee system that prepares for all possible situations, including postoperative pain, inflammation, and dissatisfaction with the shape. Those who have an N Plus membership card can receive aftercare benefits at any time.

This concludes the information we shared about a rhinitis surgery review performed with an accurate diagnosis at Oziko Plastic Surgery & N Plus. We hope this post is very helpful for those who are currently experiencing inconvenience in daily life due to nasal congestion caused by rhinitis. Thank you.
