Thank you Plastic Surgery Clinic
There are a lot of patients who would
get both eye and nose procedure together
THANK YOU PLASTIC SURGERY
Hello, this is Dr. Kim Hyung-seok from Thank You Plastic Surgery
Today, we'll have a look at some of the
cases regarding eye and nose procedures
In this case,
the patient visited us to improve
her asymmetric eye folds, hooked nose
and the blunt tip of her nose
The patient originally had high eye folds
so she wanted a slightly higher double eyelid crease
So with a slight in-out fold
by slightly lifting the corner of the eye
we could create the crease extending out
and improved the symmetry of both crease
And this patient has a history of previous injury to the nose
And I believe when her nose was broken
bone fragments were sticking out giving that hooked nose appearance
(A hooked beak that got worse due to trauma) There was a protrusion in the injured area
And when you see it, you can also see a wound on the bridge of her nose
So for those who have experienced such injuries
their skin may have become thinner
So when using implants or undergoing surgery
in terms of exposing that area
a more cautious approach is needed
Also, it is necessary to check to see if the bone condition
is maintaining accurate support before the procedure
Therefore for this patient, we proceeded with a CT scan before the surgery
When performing most nose surgeries
Nasal endoscopy and CT scan are performed together
When performing a nasal endoscopy, you can check the condition of the inside of the nose
while CT scans can detect asymmetry of the bones or changes in facial tissues
which cannot be determined by nasal endoscopy or examination
And it can also help
being aware and handling of issues inside the nose
before the procedure
This photo was taken when she was getting her stitches removed
The swelling is not as severe
With some bruises around the eyes
You can see a clear defined crease
By the 7th day, there was some swelling on the bridge of the nose
and might also appear as if the top of the nose is slightly lifted
If we look at it from the side, it looks more prominent
On the 7th day after surgery, the original hooked nose
and upon closer inspection, these bone fragments are quite prominent
while the tip of her nose dropped like this
On the 7th day, the tip of the nose remains slightly lifted
and the bridge of the nose is in a even line
This photo was taken about 3 weeks after the surgery
Compared to how much the tip of the nose was lifted on the 7th day
(3 weeks later) You can see that the tip of the nose is slightly lowering
The tip does not continue to drop
After 3 months, once it settles in place
the position of the tip of the nose is maintained to some extent
So once the tip of the nose is well settled to some extent,
and the appearance of the hooked beak subsides the tip of the nose
will also maintain its shape
So here, you can see a smooth bridge with a nice lift to the tip
is achieved just like the way the patient wanted
And, also
The scarring on the incision area is not very visible
Even with a columella incision
There comes a point where you don’t have to worry too much about scars
So, the crooked area and
areas where the cartilage was spread out has improved
while the nostrils are well spread out with nicely defined lines
We will closely check until the end of 6 months
but it is expected that it will go well
Like this, there are a lot of patients who undergo eye and nose procedure together
The eyes and nose are very closely related to each other
Your eyes are dramatic but if the nose is too plain, there may be a sense of incongruity
On the other hand, if both the eyes and nose are dramatic
It may give a slightly overwhelming impression
In some ways, it may be a little overwhelming to have both eye and nose surgery at the same time
But you can also fix the concerned areas
at one go
so please consider the desired direction you want to achieve
And I hope you can achieve a nice natural-looking results
