Q. After nose surgery, I have a runny nose and removed nasal flakes—is it a nasal surgery infection?

Hello. I’m Kim Hyung-taek, CEO and chief surgeon of CoOne Plastic Surgery, here to awaken the hidden potential within your face.

This time, we received a question from someone who had undergone nose surgery and was concerned that a runny nose after the operation might be a sign of inflammation after rhinoplasty.

Q. After nose surgery, I have a runny nose and removed nasal flakes—is it a nasal surgery infection?

Hello. On November 14, 2013, I had surgery to place silicone in the bridge of my nose and ear cartilage in the tip.

1. It’s not a big deal, but a little after the 2-week mark, I had no swelling, so I was bored staying at home.

So I went to PC bangs, and I think I was unintentionally exposed to secondhand smoke, so I’m worried. Could that have been a problem?

2. You know how the weather can be cold sometimes? I’m not sure when it started, but I kept sneezing, and after nose surgery, clear water-like mucus runs from my nose.

So I kept wiping it, but when I stay still or breathe, the inside of my nostrils keeps feeling itchy.

Is this also one of the symptoms of inflammation?

3. Because of work, after 2 weeks I removed nasal flakes and wore makeup. Was that okay?

I did it almost every day.

-> If there are no current issues, there is nothing to worry about.

2. You know how the weather can be cold sometimes? I’m not sure when it started, but I kept sneezing, and after nose surgery, clear water-like mucus runs from my nose.

So I kept wiping it, but when I stay still or breathe, the inside of my nostrils keeps feeling itchy.

Is this also one of the symptoms of inflammation?

-> This is a normal symptom. It is simply a runny nose and an itchy feeling after nose surgery, not a symptom of rhinoplasty inflammation.

3. Because of work, after 2 weeks I removed nasal flakes and wore makeup. Was that okay?

I did it almost every day.

-> It’s fine, so there’s no need to worry too much.

I hope this consultation answer was helpful.

Thank you.

This is a revision surgery case using autologous rib cartilage and autologous rib bone fragments, along with donor rib cartilage.

It was a fairly complex case, involving reconstructive surgery after nose surgery.

In the end, the patient was not satisfied, so they underwent surgery again at CoOne.

To create a more striking line, osteotomy of the nasal bridge and hump was performed.

This patient had the typical appearance of a bulbous nose and a low nose.

Silicone and septal cartilage were used as the basic materials, and osteotomy was also performed to narrow the nasal bridge.

After surgery, you can see that the nose, which looked low from the front, changed into a higher and more refined shape.

This is a case of a patient who underwent septal deviation surgery due to a bent and short nose.

A support structure was placed at the tip of the nose and the cartilage was tied together.

You can see that it was improved into a natural-looking nose line rather than an artificial one.
