This Functional Rhinoplasty Korea case at Dr.Kang’s NoseLab Seoul addressed multiple structural concerns including hump nose, deviation, nostril asymmetry, and upturned nasal tip.

Through a fully closed rhinoplasty, both functional and aesthetic balance were restored.


Functional Rhinoplasty Korea – Patient Background


The patient presented with a deviated and upturned nose, nostril asymmetry, and a visible hump.

The nasal tip appeared droopy when viewed from the side, creating imbalance in the facial profile.


Functional Rhinoplasty Korea – Surgical Plan


Dr. Kang performed a closed functional rhinoplasty focusing on structure and airflow improvement:

  • Corrected deviation and asymmetry

  • Smoothed dorsal hump for natural nasal line

  • Lowered upturned nasal tip

  • Adjusted nostril shape and height for symmetry

  • Improved breathing function while maintaining a scarless closed approach


Functional Rhinoplasty Korea – Postoperative Result


After surgery, the nasal bridge was aligned, the tip positioned naturally, and nostrils balanced.

The result achieved both aesthetic refinement and functional restoration.

Dr. Kang’s Comment


“This case required balancing multiple deformities while preserving function.

Through the closed functional rhinoplasty approach, we achieved a natural nasal shape with improved breathing.”


NoseLab performs all surgeries using the closed approach.

Postoperative precautions and possible complications after rhinoplasty – includes information on infection, bleeding, asymmetry, allergic reactions, and scarring.
