No-Implant Rhinoplasty (Hump & Long Nose Correction) + Functional Rhinoplasty

* Basic Information

# Female in her teens

# Bulky 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 bulky appearance of the side profile caused by the hump.

3. Since the nasal bridge was already sufficiently high, we planned a no-implant rhinoplasty.

4. For the deviated septum, we decided to perform functional rhinoplasty to improve breathing.

* Surgical Plan

1. Nasal Bridge Surgery

- Hump correction

- Deviated nose correction

- No-implant technique

2. Nasal Tip Surgery

- Septal extension graft

- Correction of bulbous nose, long nose, and nasolabial angle

3. Functional Rhinoplasty

- Septoplasty (correction of deviated septum)

- Inferior turbinate resection

- Internal valve reconstruction

* Post-operative Progress

1. The post-operative results show a natural yet well-defined nasal tip.

2. Correcting the long and bulbous nose resulted in a feminine and sophisticated look, which was highly satisfying.

3. If the nasal bridge is high enough, a natural nasal line can be achieved without using artificial implants. The process of creating a smooth line using only autologous cartilage is highly technical, so I recommend seeking an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon.

4. If the septum is severely deviated, functional rhinoplasty can correct breathing difficulties. You can achieve both aesthetic and functional improvements simultaneously!

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