Male Deviated Nose & Functional Rhinoplasty (Rhinitis Surgery)
A case study of a male patient in his 20s who underwent functional and aesthetic rhinoplasty to correct a deviated, bulbous nose and chronic nasal congestion.
* Basic Information
# Male in his 20s
# I want to improve my bulbous and deviated nose. I also feel uncomfortable breathing and my nose is often blocked; can we fix that together?
* Consultation
# The patient was stressed due to a low nasal bridge and a blunt, bulbous tip. We decided to create a masculine, straight-line profile.
# Since the axis of the nose itself was tilted diagonally, the patient hoped to improve this as much as possible. While it is impossible to perfectly correct a tilted axis, we planned to align it as closely as possible.
# In addition to aesthetic improvements, we decided to address the breathing difficulties through functional rhinoplasty.
* Plan
# Bridge Rhinoplasty (Hump reduction, silicone implant, osteotomy)
# Tip Rhinoplasty (Septal extension graft, bulbous tip correction)
# Functional Rhinoplasty (Rhinitis surgery)
* Post-operative Progress
1. In the post-operative results, the bulbous tip was corrected, resulting in a natural yet sharp nose.
2. Although the deviation was not 100% corrected, the axis was improved to a very satisfying degree.
3. In cases where the septum is severely deviated, breathing discomfort can be corrected through functional rhinoplasty. Achieve both aesthetic and functional goals at once!
Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!

Frequently Asked Questions
Can male crooked nose surgery completely correct the degree of crookedness of the nose?
No, if the axis of the nose itself is severely crooked, it may be difficult to achieve 100% complete correction. However, in the case study, the axis was straightened as much as possible, resulting in a satisfactory improvement.
Can both aesthetic and functional aspects be improved simultaneously during crooked nose surgery?
Yes, it is possible. As in the case study, both aesthetic nose shape improvement and functional nose surgery to alleviate rhinitis symptoms that cause difficulty breathing can be performed simultaneously to improve both aspects.
How is male crooked nose surgery performed?
In the case study, bridge of the nose surgery (hump reduction, silicone implant, osteotomy), nasal tip surgery (septal extension graft, bulbous nose correction), and functional nose surgery (rhinitis surgery) were planned.
How does the nose shape change after surgery?
In the case study, two months after surgery, the bulbous nose was corrected, resulting in a natural yet sharp nose, and the crooked part was also satisfactorily improved.
Can functional nose surgery also improve rhinitis symptoms?
Yes, it is possible. If the nasal septum is severely deviated, functional nose surgery can correct the difficulty in breathing, which can help improve rhinitis symptoms.
