Hello, I'm Seo In-soo a plastic surgery specialist
from SOON Plastic Surgery
Today, we will take a look at cases of revision rhinoplasty
In the case of revision rhinoplasty
It can be broadly divided into two causes
The first is due to side effects
This is also the most worrisome situation for many people
Inflammation, protrusion of the implant through the skin or mucous membrane
Or nasal shortening and hardening due to scarring
You may wonder why these side effects occur
Silicone is the most commonly used implant material
Although its safety has been proven
Infections that occur before or after surgery, or lack of expertise
When it is not suitable for the skin type
Result in rejection reactions
Frequent revision surgeries or
Trauma can be the causes of possible side effects
The second is dissatisfaction with the shape
Many people consider revision surgeries
Because the result differs from what they thought before the surgery
So if one has got the surgery
by simply following the current trend
Or to imitate the noses of celebrities or YouTubers
There is a high possibility of being unsatisfied with the results after the surgery
If the center of the face, the nose were wrongly adjusted
The balance of the face can be disrupted
You have to always consider that
the nose that looks good on somebody might not suit your face
The most important thing
Is to create a nose that harmonizes with your face
Creating a nose shape that has a synergistic effect with other facial features is the most important
Recently, using 3D modeling materials
Nasal shaping materials are being widely used
Before the surgery, CT scans are taken
And based on the 3D CT scan
A custom-made shaping material can be created
Using a 3D custom-made shaping material
it can create a much smoother and more natural shape
There are also many advantages in terms of functionality
Because customized implants are made based on CT scans
They fit precisely to the individual's nasal cartilage
Compared to using conventional silicone or other implants
This minimizes potential issues that may arise
Like implants moving, bending, or not fixed properly
When it comes with rhinoplasty
Either implant, autologous tissue
Or bone osteotomy may be necessary
So the process is more complex and difficult than other surgeries
In addition to the surgeon's surgical skills
Other aesthetic senses are also required
In order to have effective result communication between patients and doctors are necessary
Even if the surgery didn't go wrong with
just the shape, patients may not be 100% satisfied
So therefore I recommend
getting consultations from doctors
with long experience and expertise in the area
We hope today's video was helpful
We'll see you again with useful information
Thank you
