Hello. We are Kowon Plastic Surgery Clinic, performing rhinoplasty with honest and delicate techniques.
Today’s question is from someone who had revision surgery twice after nose surgery and is worried because the nose silicone appears to have an unusual shape on the X-ray image.


Q. I had nose revision surgery twice, and the nose silicone shape looks strange.
Hello. I had my third nose surgery about 10 months ago.
The first revision surgery was done because the nose silicone had dropped a little, and the second revision surgery was to correct the silicone because it had bent to one side.
At the moment, it seems to have turned out well without any particular problems.
However, yesterday I injured the area around my eye and had an X-ray taken. When I looked at the image, there was no fracture, but the nose silicone also appeared, and I could see that it was not in a straight line; instead, it was bent downward from the bridge of the nose.
Is it normal for it to look like that? Or is the nose silicone bent strangely?
There are no visible problems, and I have no pain.
Isn’t nose silicone originally supposed to be a straight shape like / <-- this?
But when I look at the X-ray image, it is not a straight line... Do I really have to have another revision surgery? ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

In fact, many people find that after nose surgery, when they take an X-ray or CT scan, the nose silicone is slightly bent.
If the silicone is slightly bent due to the weight placed on it, there is no need to worry as long as there are no external appearance problems.
The bottom of the nose silicone is fixed to the hard bone in the upper part, and the lower part is in the cartilage area, so it may appear in a shape like the one in the photo.
If there are no particular appearance issues, you do not need to worry.
I hope this answer was helpful.
Thank you.
