Functional Rhinoplasty: Improving Rhinitis and Achieving a Sophisticated Male Profile

* Basic Information

• Male in his 20s
• Has experienced significant breathing discomfort due to rhinitis since childhood.
• Concerned about an uneven nasal bridge caused by a dorsal hump and a lack of facial dimension.

* Consultation

• The patient expressed concerns regarding a low nasal bridge and an uneven appearance caused by a hump.
• In addition to aesthetic improvements, we decided to address the functional breathing difficulties caused by rhinitis.

* Surgical Plan

• Bridge Rhinoplasty (Hump reduction, Augmentation)
• Tip Rhinoplasty (Bulbous tip correction)
• Functional Rhinoplasty (Septoplasty, Turbinate reduction, Internal valve reconstruction)

* Post-operative Progress

• The dorsal hump was corrected, and an implant was used to raise the bridge, creating a slim and sophisticated look.
• As the nose became more defined, the overall facial line transformed into a more masculine and refined appearance. This was a highly satisfying case where both aesthetic goals and functional rhinitis relief were achieved.
• When undergoing nose surgery, functional aspects must always be considered. If you experience discomfort while breathing, address it together with the aesthetic changes!

Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!
