Male Rhinoplasty Revision (Columella & Deviated Nose Correction) and Functional Rhinoplasty
A case study of a male patient in his 30s undergoing rhinoplasty revision to correct a deviated nose, drooping columella, and nasal congestion.
* Basic Information
- Male in his 30s
- History of rhinoplasty several years ago (+)
- Face appears aged due to a deviated nasal tip and drooping columella
* Consultation
# We planned to improve the aged impression caused by the drooping columella and deviated nasal tip.
# We also decided to address breathing difficulties caused by rhinitis.
* Surgical Plan
- Dorsal augmentation
- Nasal tip surgery (Deviated nose correction, drooping columella correction)
- Functional rhinoplasty (Septoplasty, inferior turbinate resection, internal nasal valve reconstruction)
* Post-operative Progress
# The aged appearance caused by the deviated nasal tip and drooping columella has been improved.
# With the nose corrected, the overall facial line has become more masculine and sophisticated. This was a highly satisfying case as it addressed both aesthetic concerns and functional rhinitis issues.
