A Beautiful and Natural Look After Rhinoplasty

These days, more and more people are trying to enhance their own competitiveness through various forms of care. In particular, when someone judges that their appearance does not meet their own standards, they may look into cosmetic surgery as a way to improve it. However, indiscriminate plastic surgery can cause side effects, so it is important to think more carefully. Today’s plastic surgery trend is to naturally complement the image while bringing out each person’s individuality, so it is important to accurately understand a person’s needs and apply only the surgeries that are truly necessary.

Among the many types of plastic surgery, the nose is especially popular because it is located at the center of the face and is the most three-dimensional feature. Even a small change to the shape of the nose can have a major effect on improving one’s image, so you can learn more detailed information about rhinoplasty experiences from many people.

Therefore, for those looking into rhinoplasty experiences, the types of noses they may be considering include noses that are too low, a low tip, a crooked nose, a bumpy hump, a drooping nose, an upturned nose, or a saddle nose. These types can be considered as a means of changing the overall facial image.

When most people look into rhinoplasty experiences, the primary concern is appearance. The nose plays a very important role in outward appearance, but at the same time it is a functional organ responsible for breathing and smelling. Before rhinoplasty is performed, the internal functions of the nose must also be checked. Only then can surgery proceed, helping prevent the need for revision surgery due to functional problems after the operation.

When the functional aspects of the nose are improved through surgery, the most representative symptom is nasal congestion caused by rhinitis. Rhinitis is a common condition that more than 70% of adults in Korea have, and it is divided into structural rhinitis and allergic rhinitis. Allergic rhinitis is difficult to improve through surgery, and temporary improvement can be achieved primarily through medication or boosting immunity.

On the other hand, structural rhinitis can be cured through surgery. Structural rhinitis may have causes such as a deviated septum, inferior turbinate hypertrophy, and nasal valve stenosis, and these symptoms may appear in combination. Although the causes of structural rhinitis differ, they commonly interfere with the flow of air entering through the nose, resulting in nasal congestion. To resolve this nasal congestion, an accurate diagnosis must be made and the appropriate surgery performed.

At Ojico Hospital N+Plus, to ensure safe and satisfying rhinoplasty experiences, we first identify the current external and internal issues each individual has through preoperative 3D-CT scans, internal endoscopy, various allergy tests, and nasal function tests, then establish and carry out a surgical plan based on the collected data.

In the case of the average cosmetic rhinoplasty, silicone is inserted into the bridge of the nose, and the tip is corrected using autologous cartilage to refine the overall nasal line.

If only the bridge is low, customized silicone is inserted into the bridge to add volume, and the overall nose line is designed to connect naturally with the tip.

If only the tip is low, the tip is corrected with autologous cartilage, and the overall nose line is designed so that it does not break away from the bridge.

When it comes to the autologous cartilage used in rhinoplasty, you can see from rhinoplasty experiences that it is applied differently for each individual. Through preoperative tests, the appropriate material is selected for each person. Autologous cartilage includes ear cartilage, autologous rib cartilage, and septal cartilage.

Silicone can be inserted into the bridge of the nose to add volume. In the case of silicone used for the nasal bridge, rather than using a mass-produced implant as is, a customized implant is designed by considering various aspects such as the person’s overall image and the bridge’s width, length, and breadth, in order to minimize an artificial look after surgery.

Therefore, for those who are looking into rhinoplasty experiences and considering rhinoplasty, it is important to choose a place that can check both the external aspects of the nose and its internal function. In addition, it may be helpful to carefully check whether the medical staff have strong anatomical knowledge of the nose, whether they have abundant relevant experience, whether they are equipped with devices that can accurately assess the condition of your nose, and whether aftercare is firmly guaranteed.

To help ensure safe and satisfying rhinoplasty experiences, at Ojico Hospital N+Plus, Director Yoon Hyun-cheol personally handles every step one-on-one, from consultation about rhinoplasty to surgical planning, procedure, treatment, and follow-up care, so you can visit with peace of mind from before surgery through after.

The aftercare provided after surgery is also more reassuring, as an N+Plus membership card is issued and an A/S system guaranteeing one year after surgery is in place. In addition, the hospital operates a surgical responsibility guarantee system to prepare for any situations that may occur after surgery, such as pain, inflammation, or dissatisfaction with the appearance, making the rhinoplasty experience even safer and more satisfying.

This concludes the explanation of the rhinoplasty experiences at Ojico Hospital N+Plus. I hope this article is very helpful for those who are unhappy with the current shape of their nose or are considering rhinoplasty because of nasal congestion caused by rhinitis. Thank you.
