Patient History and Presenting Problems

The patient presented with a persistent leftward nasal deviation and significant breathing difficulty following multiple prior nasal surgeries, including an upper lip lift and revision procedures.

Over-reduction and asymmetrical structural support resulted in both aesthetic imbalance and functional airway compromise, making Revision Rhinoplasty for Deviated Nose Korea essential for recovery.

Surgical Plan for Revision Rhinoplasty for Deviated Nose Korea

Lateral Osteotomy for Nasal Bone Realignment

Precise lateral osteotomy was performed to reposition deviated nasal bones back to the midline. This step is fundamental in revision cases to restore symmetry without destabilizing the nasal framework.

Nasolabial Angle Refinement

Excessive prior reduction had exaggerated the nasolabial angle, worsening the appearance of a protruding mouth. Controlled reshaping restored a natural transition between the nose and upper lip.

Nostril Expansion with Local Skin Graft

The narrowed left nostril caused airflow obstruction. A carefully planned local skin graft widened the airway safely while correcting nostril asymmetry.

Subtle Structural Augmentation

Minimal height adjustment using structural support enhanced overall facial proportion while preserving nasal function.

Surgeon’s Commentary on Revision Rhinoplasty for Deviated Nose Korea

Expert Insight

Revision rhinoplasty demands a dual focus on structure and function.

In deviated nose cases, simply straightening the bridge is insufficient—airway patency, nostril balance, and prior surgical damage must all be addressed simultaneously.

Overly aggressive lip or nostril reduction can compromise breathing. Restoring anatomy with conservative, anatomically sound techniques ensures long-term stability and patient satisfaction.

At NOSELAB, Revision Rhinoplasty for Deviated Nose Korea is approached with meticulous planning, prioritizing sustainable function alongside refined aesthetics.
