Hello, I’m Dr. Cha-Young Kang, Director of Nose Lab Clinic.

Today, I’d like to share a case of Crooked Nose Correction combined with the treatment of a sunken nasal bridge. This case demonstrates how a customized rhinoplasty approach can effectively solve both functional and aesthetic concerns.

1. Patient Background for Crooked Nose Correction

The patient was a 31-year-old male with a history of hump nose correction in 2017. His main concerns included:

Crooked Nose Correction for improved symmetry
Elevating the sunken nasal bridge
Correcting nostril asymmetry
Improving chronic rhinitis symptoms
Resolving nasal obstruction

2. Surgical Plan and Approach for Crooked Nose Correction

Our surgical plan focused on both functional and aesthetic improvement. Key procedures included:

Septoplasty for nasal obstruction correction.
Septal Extension with Autologous Rib Cartilage to stabilize and support the nasal tip.
Crooked Nose Correction with Lateral Osteotomy for realignment of nasal bones.
Silicone Implant to elevate the nasal bridge and smooth the contour.
Submucosal Reduction with Radiofrequency for chronic rhinitis treatment.
