Nasal Surgery for Rhinitis Review, with a Clear Diagnosis

Hello. We are OjiKO Plastic Surgery & Nplus, a clinic that has spent the past 16 years thinking only about your beautiful and healthy nose.

The content prepared this time is about a review of nasal surgery for rhinitis carried out with a clear diagnosis.

As winter approaches, many people visit hospitals because nasal congestion caused by rhinitis makes daily life uncomfortable. In some cases, these symptoms improve temporarily, but even with medication, there are many cases where the symptoms do not improve at all and keep recurring. In such cases, you can learn more about nasal surgery for rhinitis as a way to improve nasal congestion.

First, what is rhinitis that causes nasal congestion? It is a common condition affecting more than 70% of adults in Korea and is typically characterized by nasal congestion. Rhinitis is divided into allergic rhinitis and structural rhinitis caused by abnormalities in the internal structure. Usually, people take the symptoms lightly and mistake them for allergic rhinitis or a cold, which often leads to chronic rhinitis. However, since it is difficult to tell with the naked eye whether it is allergic rhinitis or structural rhinitis, a diagnosis can only be made after checking the inside of the nose using equipment.

In the case of allergic rhinitis, symptoms appear in response to specific substances or seasonal changes, and because they are caused by an allergic reaction, a complete cure is difficult. Therefore, medication or improved immunity may provide temporary relief of symptoms. On the other hand, structural rhinitis has causes such as a deviated septum, inferior turbinate hypertrophy, and nasal valve stenosis, and in such cases, surgery can cure the condition completely, which is why many people are increasingly interested in reviews of nasal surgery for rhinitis.

Usually, people looking into nose surgery prioritize aesthetic standards and want a smooth, full nose line with silicone for the bridge and autologous cartilage for the tip. However, the nose is located at the center of the face and is the most three-dimensional feature. Because of this, its external appearance is also important and plays a major role in improving one’s image. At the same time, it is a functional structure responsible for breathing and smelling, making it an important part of the entire body. Therefore, if surgery is performed only from a cosmetic approach, it may lead to functional problems after surgery. It can be very helpful to check the inside of the nose accurately before proceeding, so it is a good idea to refer to information about nose plastic surgery along with reviews of nasal surgery for rhinitis.

Interest in reviews of nasal surgery for rhinitis has increased because, with seasonal changes and the transitional period between seasons, the temperature difference becomes greater and nasal congestion becomes more severe, increasing discomfort in daily life and making this a more sought-after way to improve it. In addition, changes in the shape of the nose can be performed at the same time as rhinitis surgery, so as one of the more popular types of plastic surgery, it can help reduce concerns about both function and appearance. However, because the two surgeries are performed at the same time, choosing carefully after thorough review and consultation can lead to greater satisfaction after the surgery.

At OjiKO Plastic Surgery & Nplus, in order to ensure safe and satisfying nasal surgery for rhinitis, we accurately assess each individual's condition before surgery through various allergy tests, internal nasal function tests, 3D-CT scans, and internal endoscopy, and then establish and carry out a surgical plan based on the extracted data.

If you look into reviews of nasal surgery for rhinitis, you will see that the materials and methods differ from person to person. Broadly speaking, surgery is carried out in a way that suits each individual by separating symptoms such as a deviated septum, nasal valve stenosis, and inferior turbinate hypertrophy, and in cases with complex symptoms, additional procedures and surgeries are applied. Nasal surgery for rhinitis can be described as an operation that corrects the airflow entering the nose smoothly, depending on different causes.

The materials used in cosmetic nose surgery performed additionally after nasal surgery for rhinitis include silicone for the bridge and autologous cartilage for the tip. Autologous cartilage includes ear cartilage, septal cartilage, and rib cartilage, and the materials are also selected based on the individual's condition through preoperative testing before surgery.

For silicone, the implant used for the bridge of the nose, we do not use commercially available silicone as is. To minimize an artificial look after nose surgery, it is carefully hand-shaped before use, taking into account various aspects such as the individual's overall appearance, as well as the width, length, breadth, and height of the nasal bridge.

Therefore, for those looking into information about reviews of nasal surgery for rhinitis, it is important to refer to the images and content of the reviews, but in addition, you should more carefully check whether the medical staff have strong anatomical knowledge of the nose, whether they have abundant experience and expertise related to nasal surgery for rhinitis, whether they are equipped with devices that can accurately check the condition of your nose, and whether aftercare is firmly guaranteed. Proceeding after checking these points carefully can lead to a more satisfying review of nasal surgery for rhinitis.

At OjiKO Plastic Surgery & Nplus, Director Yoon Hyun-cheol personally handles everything one-on-one, from consultation related to nasal surgery for rhinitis to surgical planning, the procedure itself, treatment, and follow-up visits, allowing you to receive high-level medical services throughout the entire process before and after surgery.

For aftercare as well, we issue an Nplus membership card and operate an A/S system that guarantees support for one year after surgery, as well as a surgical responsibility guarantee system that covers all situations that may arise, such as postoperative pain, inflammation, or dissatisfaction with the result, ensuring a safe review of nasal surgery for rhinitis.
