Q. Nasal surgery necrosis? Nasal surgery inflammation?? Please see if this is a side effect..

Hello, I am Kim Hyung-taek, CEO and lead doctor of Kowon Plastic Surgery, a clinic specializing in noses.

Today’s note is an answer to a question from someone who is worried about nasal surgery necrosis and nasal surgery inflammation after rhinoplasty.

Q. Nasal surgery necrosis? Nasal surgery inflammation?? Please see if this is a side effect.

As you can see in the photo, there is a red area.

This photo was taken on the second day after surgery, and I’m worried whether it is nasal surgery necrosis or nasal surgery inflammation.

I went to the hospital and asked, and the doctor said it was bruising, but when I looked closely, it didn’t seem like a bruise.

It looks like something got pressed and blood pooled there? It looks like that, but is this a bruise?

I searched a lot online, but no matter how much I looked, I couldn’t find anyone who looked like this after rhinoplasty.. Isn’t this nasal surgery necrosis or nasal surgery inflammation?

The area you are currently concerned about, wondering whether it is nasal surgery necrosis or nasal surgery inflammation after rhinoplasty, is called the columella.

Everyone is affected by gravity when standing or sitting, and even when lying down.

Because of this, after surgery, it is completely natural for blood to collect in the lowest area due to gravity.

Since you had rhinoplasty, the blood gathers in the lowest part of the nose, and that lowest area is the columella.

So it may look like a bruise, but over time it will naturally return to its original color, so there seems to be no need to worry too much.

I hope you get a good result.

Thank you.
