Q. Broad Nasal Bridge After Rhinoplasty..

Hello. I am Kim Hyung-taek, the chief director of Kowon Plastic Surgery, pursuing healthy beauty. Today’s answer note is about a question from someone who had rhinoplasty at an otolaryngology clinic and is considering revision surgery.

Q. Broad Nasal Bridge After Rhinoplasty..

Hello. I had sinus endoscopic surgery, septoplasty, submucosal inferior turbinate resection, and surgery for a hump nose and arrow-shaped nose at an otolaryngology clinic.

After this rhinoplasty, the nasal congestion improved, but the broad nasal bridge did not improve and is the same as before surgery, and the hump on the nose also does not seem to have been completely resolved and remains slightly.

Before surgery, I was told that if the bridge of the nose were cut and brought together, over time the nasal bones would naturally join and the bridge would become narrower, so they would make it slightly wider and then let it settle. Is this explanation correct?

Even if only the bridge is improved, I am willing to overlook the slight hump that remains.

It has been about 5 days since my surgery, and if I ask the hospital for revision surgery, will they do it?

I do not know if it is just my feeling, but since it was an otolaryngology clinic, it seems like their rhinoplasty skills were not very good, and if I get revision surgery at another hospital, will they pay the rhinoplasty cost?

If it has only been about 5 days since the questioner’s rhinoplasty, I think it would be best to wait until the swelling from the rhinoplasty has gone down to some extent.

On the 5th day after rhinoplasty, there is still swelling in the nose, so it is difficult to make an accurate judgment.

I do not know exactly how the osteotomy was performed at the hospital, but it seems advisable to wait and recover for at least about 2 weeks, and then make a judgment after the swelling has gone down to some extent.

I hope you get a good result.
