A Clear and Thorough Revision Rhinoplasty Review

Hello. Ogijo Hospital & Plus has spent the past 16 years focusing only on your beautiful and healthy nose.

The topic prepared this time is about revision rhinoplasty reviews.

Many people try exercise, massage, dieting, procedures, and other methods to improve their appearance. However, some changes are still difficult to achieve, so people may try to address them through plastic surgery. Among the various types of plastic surgery, nose surgery is especially popular. The reason is that the nose is located at the center of the face and is the most three-dimensional feature, so even a change in the shape of the nose can have a major effect on changing one’s image.

However, while there are relatively many cases where people are satisfied with their first surgery, there may also be people who do not get the shape they expected or who develop functional problems inside the nose, leading them to consider revision rhinoplasty. At this time, it can be helpful to look more closely at information on revision rhinoplasty reviews.

People looking into revision rhinoplasty reviews can be divided into various types. In cases where they are dissatisfied after the first surgery, or when there are problems with nasal function, inflammation, or contracture, they begin looking into revision rhinoplasty. Since the causes of revision rhinoplasty vary widely and the surgical methods and materials can differ greatly, it is important to first make an accurate diagnosis of the condition of the nose and then proceed with surgery tailored to each individual.

For those looking into revision rhinoplasty reviews, many cases of failed nose surgery are relatively common because cosmetic considerations are prioritized. However, the nose plays a very important cosmetic role while also serving as a functional organ responsible for breathing and the sense of smell. Therefore, when surgery is performed, these functional aspects must be carefully considered to help prevent the need for revision surgery due to postoperative functional problems.

Therefore, when checking revision rhinoplasty reviews, additional points to consider include whether the medical team has a high level of anatomical knowledge of the nose, whether they have sufficient experience and expertise, whether equipment is available to accurately assess the condition of your nose, and whether aftercare is reliably guaranteed. Carefully checking these details before proceeding may be helpful.

As mentioned above, among the functional problems that can occur during nose surgery, the one that can be addressed at the same time as plastic surgery is nasal congestion caused by rhinitis. Rhinitis is a condition affecting more than 70% of Korean adults and is divided into allergic rhinitis and structural rhinitis caused by abnormalities in the internal nasal structure. Allergic rhinitis accounts for 20%, while structural rhinitis accounts for 80%. In the case of allergic rhinitis, it is difficult to cure completely, and only temporary improvement is possible through ongoing immune support and medication treatment. In the case of structural rhinitis, conditions include deviated septum, nasal valve stenosis, and inferior turbinate hypertrophy. Each of these conditions obstructs the flow of air entering through the nose and causes nasal congestion. Structural rhinitis can be expected to be cured through surgery, and because the symptoms may be the same even when the causes differ, surgery based on an accurate diagnosis is necessary for satisfactory nose surgery.

At Ogijo Hospital & Plus, to ensure a safe and satisfying revision rhinoplasty review, the team accurately identifies the cause of the revision surgery through preoperative 3D-CT scans, internal endoscopy, various allergy tests, and nasal function tests, then establishes a surgical plan based on the extracted data.

Revision rhinoplasty methods can vary depending on the individual’s condition. Cases are broadly divided into issues caused by artificial implants, a crooked nose, deformed implants, a drooping nasal tip after surgery, an upturned nasal tip after surgery, recurrence of a hump, and more.

The materials used in revision rhinoplasty are typically silicone for the bridge of the nose and autologous cartilage for the tip correction. The autologous cartilage used for the nasal tip includes septal cartilage, ear cartilage, and autologous rib cartilage. If the use of autologous cartilage is unavoidably difficult, donated rib cartilage approved by the U.S. FDA is used for correction.

Also, for the silicone used in the bridge of the nose, the clinic does not simply use a pre-manufactured silicone product as is. Instead, it is carefully shaped by hand while considering the individual’s overall appearance, as well as the width, length, breadth, and height of the bridge. After revision rhinoplasty, the result is designed to create a beautiful nasal line that suits the individual rather than looking artificial, leading to a more satisfying revision rhinoplasty review.

At Ogijo & Plus, the cause of the first surgery’s failure is identified through accurate analysis, and the revision method is refined accordingly. Through a systematic system, detailed care is also provided for scars and swelling that may worsen after revision rhinoplasty. To ensure a safe and satisfying revision rhinoplasty review, Director Yoon Hyun-cheol personally handles every step one-on-one—from consultation and surgical planning to the procedure, treatment, and follow-up visits—so you can receive high-level medical care from before the surgery through aftercare.

Aftercare is also supported through the issuance of an A+S system guaranteed for one year after surgery with an AN+PLUS membership card, and a surgery responsibility guarantee system is in place to prepare for any situation that may arise after surgery, such as postoperative pain, inflammation, or dissatisfaction with the result, making for an even more satisfying revision rhinoplasty review.
