Correction of Deviated and Hump Nose & Functional Rhinoplasty
A case study of a female patient in her 20s who underwent no-implant rhinoplasty to correct a hump, a long drooping tip, and a deviated septum.
* Basic Information
# Female in her 20s
# Uneven nasal bridge due to a hump
# Long, drooping nasal tip
# Breathing discomfort caused by a severely deviated septum
* Consultation
1. The patient’s primary concern was the blunt and long, drooping shape of the nasal tip.
2. She also wanted to improve the uneven side profile caused by the hump.
3. Since the nasal bridge was already high enough, we planned a ‘no-implant’ surgery.
4. Regarding the deviated septum, we decided to improve breathing through functional rhinoplasty.
* Surgical Plan
1. Bridge Rhinoplasty
- Hump correction
- Deviated nose correction
- No-implant technique
2. Tip Rhinoplasty
- Septal extension graft
- Correction of bulbous tip, long tip, and nasolabial angle
* Post-operative Progress
1. The post-operative results show a natural yet well-defined nasal tip.
2. Correcting the long and bulbous tip resulted in a more feminine and sophisticated look, which was very satisfying.
3. If the nasal bridge is sufficiently high, a natural line can be achieved without using implants. The process of creating a smooth line using only autologous cartilage is highly technical, so it is recommended to be performed by an experienced plastic surgery specialist.
4. If the septum is severely deviated, functional rhinoplasty can correct breathing difficulties. Achieve both aesthetic and functional improvements at once!
Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a plastic surgery specialist!
