Hello, I’m Kim Hyung-taek, the representative director of Kowon Plastic Surgery, who helps balance the impression of the face.

Today, this is a case of someone who injured their nose and underwent surgery. They said that even after surgery, the nose gradually seemed to droop, and they asked out of concern about whether they would need crooked nose revision surgery.

Q. Can crooked nose revision surgery with nasal bone osteotomy be performed as a functional nose surgery?

Twenty years ago, I fell from the monkey bars at a playground and ended up having nose plastic surgery.

Recently, my health has not been very good, so I’ve been putting it off with the thought of doing it later if possible, but in fact I was leaning toward not having functional nose surgery again if at all possible.

However, when I look in the mirror these days, I often feel that my nose is gradually drooping, which makes me feel upset.

So I’m wondering whether crooked nose revision surgery is possible even in my current situation.

At one place, I was told that if the nose is crooked, surgery is difficult and they cannot do it.

If the nose is crooked, it is a good idea to visit an otolaryngology clinic or a plastic surgery clinic for a consultation.

In general, the nose bone is corrected through osteotomy to make it as close as possible to its original shape.

Even if you are currently having difficulties due to spinal issues, crooked nose revision surgery itself is possible as long as you can lie on the operating table and your overall health condition is at a level that can withstand surgery.

However, surgery for a drooping or crooked nose is often not covered by health insurance, so you should also consider the cost of the procedure.

In most otolaryngology and plastic surgery clinics, surgery for a crooked nose is possible, and you should be able to find a clinic nearby that can perform it. I hope you get a good result.

I hope this consultation response was helpful.

Thank you.

This is a case of a man with a hump nose.

He had a severe hump and his nose was significantly crooked to one side.

The hump was removed, and tip cartilage suturing was performed.

Then cartilage was grafted to the glabella area to improve the low bridge between the eyebrows.

This person had both a crooked nose and a bulbous nose appearance.

Because the nasal bridge was high to begin with, we performed nose surgery without an implant, without using silicone.

The crooked appearance from the front was corrected, and through tip cartilage suturing, the nose changed into a more lifted and refined shape.

This is a case in which a spread-out nose was improved through nasal bridge osteotomy and alar reduction.

It had a typical bulbous nose shape and was a fairly low nose, giving the face a compressed appearance.

After surgery, you can see that the previously broad-looking nostrils became narrower.
