Make a Careful and Informed Decision About Male Plastic Surgery

Recently, more and more men have been showing a great deal of interest in male plastic surgery and looking for information. In particular, interest is even higher in rhinoplasty, which is centered in the face and is one of the most three-dimensional features. The reason is that even a small change in the shape of the nose can have a major effect on improving one’s image, making it one of the more popular types of cosmetic surgery. In particular, many men are seeking image improvement through rhinoplasty.

Therefore, for those looking into male plastic surgery, common characteristics of the nose include a low nose, a wide nose, a hump nose, a crooked nose, an upturned nose, a drooping nose, or a hooked nose. They want to correct a nose shape that does not match the standard they have in mind and improve their image by making it straight and well-balanced.

As such, people looking into male plastic surgery mainly proceed based on appearance, but in the case of rhinoplasty, it is not only an important aesthetic feature but also a functional organ responsible for breathing and smell. Surgery must be performed while considering these functional aspects as well, so that revision surgery due to postoperative functional problems can be prevented. For this reason, it is important to choose a place that can accurately diagnose both the external and functional aspects of the nose.

When it comes to improving the functional aspects of the nose through surgery in male plastic surgery, the most representative symptom is nasal congestion caused by rhinitis. Rhinitis is a common condition affecting more than 70% of adults in Korea and is divided into allergic rhinitis and structural rhinitis. In the case of allergic rhinitis, it reacts to specific substances or environments, making it difficult to cure through surgery alone. Improving immunity and medication treatment should be prioritized.

In the case of structural rhinitis, unlike allergic rhinitis, a complete recovery can be expected through surgery. Causes of structural rhinitis are divided into deviated septum, inferior turbinate hypertrophy, nasal valve stenosis, or a combination of symptoms, each of which interferes with the flow of air entering through the nose and commonly causes nasal congestion. In particular, when undergoing male plastic surgery, there are many cases in which trauma has caused functional problems due to leisure activities or intense exercise compared with women, so it can be helpful to look into it more carefully.

Therefore, for those looking into male plastic surgery, it is important to check the aesthetic aspects, but it is also recommended that you carefully check whether the medical team has a high level of anatomical knowledge of the nose, whether their relevant experience and expertise are extensive, whether the necessary equipment is available to accurately examine the condition of your nose, and whether aftercare can be reliably guaranteed before proceeding with surgery.

At OJICO Hospital & N Plus Clinic, when performing male plastic surgery, various allergy tests, internal nasal function tests, 3D-CT scans, and internal endoscopic imaging are conducted before surgery to identify the nose’s external and internal conditions, and the surgery is planned and carried out based on the extracted data.

The materials commonly used in male rhinoplasty are silicone for the bridge and autologous cartilage for the tip. Autologous cartilage includes septal cartilage, ear cartilage, and autologous rib cartilage, and the material is selected based on preoperative tests to suit each individual.

The silicone used for the bridge is not simply a pre-made commercial silicone product. Instead, it is carefully trimmed by hand after considering the individual’s overall image as well as various aspects of the nasal bridge such as width, length, breadth, and height, allowing for a more satisfying male plastic surgery result.

Also, in the case of male plastic surgery, the operation is performed with a clearly different line from female rhinoplasty. Men tend to prefer a masculine and higher nasal bridge line, while women prefer a semi-curved or straight semi-curved line for a more feminine image, so it is important to differentiate the lines.

At OJICO Hospital & N Plus, Director Yoon Hyun-cheol personally handles everything one-on-one, from consultation for male plastic surgery, to establishing the surgical plan, performing the procedure, treatment, and follow-up care, so you can receive high-level medical services from before surgery through recovery.

For aftercare, they issue an N Plus membership card and provide an A/S system that guarantees support for one year after surgery. In addition, they operate a surgery responsibility guarantee system that prepares for every possible situation after surgery, such as postoperative pain, inflammation, or dissatisfaction with the result, so you can visit with greater peace of mind.
