What Should You Check When Revising a Contracted Nose?

Hello,

this is V&E Plastic Surgery.

No matter what type of plastic surgery you undergo, if you need a revision surgery,

there are many things to check.

In particular, when it comes to rhinoplasty, it is important to

accurately assess and understand the current condition of the nose.

Among these, if you have a contracted nose,

there are things to check

when deciding on revision surgery.

Today, let’s take a detailed look at this topic.

First, let’s talk about what

a contracted nose revision surgery is.

A contracted nose refers to a situation where the surrounding tissue becomes

firmly contracted due to an implant, causing the nose to become shorter or

look lifted.

At this point, the process of releasing the contracted tissue

and improving it into a natural, soft nose line

can be called contracted nose revision surgery.

To improve side effects and problems such as a contracted nose caused by a previous surgery

and return to your original,

natural nasal bridge, there are three important points.

1. A personalized surgical plan must be established.

2. Sufficient consultation and highly accurate diagnosis are necessary.

3. The design must take into account

your facial proportions.

The solution for improving contracted nose revision surgery,

considering these points,

can be divided into two methods as follows.

1. A method that extends all nasal tissues, including the skin, cartilage, and perichondrium,

through delicate dissection and removal of scar tissue

2. A method that improves the contracted nose by reconstructing a stable support structure of the nose

through cartilage grafting

Then, let’s look at when contracted nose revision surgery

should be performed to achieve highly satisfying results.

In general, it is appropriate

after 6 months to 1 year has passed since the first surgery.

The reason is that the surgical method differs depending on each person’s nasal condition,

so it is best to consult with a specialist and determine the optimal timing.

V&E’s contracted nose revision surgery, performed with a specialist who can determine the optimal timing,

has the know-how and skill to create a beautiful nose line

that suits many different cases.

Accordingly, it can improve a natural nose line

and functional issues,

and provides satisfying results

through customized nose revision surgery.

If you judge that your current nose condition is

close to a contracted nose,

we recommend undergoing treatment with a plastic surgery specialist at V&E,

and we would like to emphasize that we are always doing our best

to create the best possible results.
