0 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.920 Thank You Plastic Surgery 1 00:00:02.920 --> 00:00:05.330 Oh! It feels so fresh!! 2 00:00:05.330 --> 00:00:07.050 I can breath so much better! 3 00:00:10.263 --> 00:00:12.013 Thank You Plastic Surgery 4 00:00:12.380 --> 00:00:15.480 Hello, this is plastic surgery specialist Dr. Kim Hyung-seok 5 00:00:15.480 --> 00:00:19.200 (Today's topic will be regarding functional nasal surgery (for allergic rhinitis) Today we'll look into functional nasal surgery 6 00:00:19.200 --> 00:00:22.720 You may have heard that most patients will consider functional rhinoplasty 7 00:00:22.720 --> 00:00:25.200 when they are getting their cosmetic procedures 8 00:00:25.200 --> 00:00:28.560 There are three typical types of functional nasal surgery 9 00:00:28.560 --> 00:00:31.520 The first functional nasal surgery that can be done during surgery 10 00:00:31.520 --> 00:00:34.400 (Septoplasty) There is a cartilage between the nostrils 11 00:00:34.400 --> 00:00:37.480 called the nasal septum 12 00:00:37.480 --> 00:00:39.600 And by straightening this part, 13 00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:41.760 we can correct this crooked area 14 00:00:41.760 --> 00:00:44.600 When the deviated septum causes difficulty in breathing, 15 00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:46.960 or worsen allergic rhinitis 16 00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:49.910 We perform this procedure called septoplasty to straighten the septum 17 00:00:49.910 --> 00:00:51.960 Also, centered around the nasal septum 18 00:00:51.960 --> 00:00:54.440 (Inferior turbinate reduction surgery) descending on either side, 19 00:00:54.440 --> 00:00:57.000 there is a tissue called the inferior turbinate 20 00:00:57.000 --> 00:00:59.320 This tissue is centered around the septum 21 00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:02.320 and occupies the walls of both sides of the nose 22 00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:06.330 (Nasal Septum/ Inferior Turbinate) If you look at this nasal endoscopy, you can see a little bit better 23 00:01:06.330 --> 00:01:08.680 The nasal septum is in the center like this 24 00:01:08.680 --> 00:01:11.160 and the part called the inferior turbinate is down here like this 25 00:01:11.160 --> 00:01:14.010 Even if the nasal septum is crooked, it could touch the inferior turbinate 26 00:01:14.010 --> 00:01:16.800 (Nasal Septum/ Inferior Turbinate) and cause difficulty in breathing , and even if the nasal septum is straight, 27 00:01:16.800 --> 00:01:20.400 a large inferior turbinate can cause difficulty in breathing 28 00:01:20.400 --> 00:01:23.600 Like this case, the left turbinate is so large 29 00:01:23.600 --> 00:01:26.800 and you can see the nasal septum is curved to match it 30 00:01:26.800 --> 00:01:31.280 In these cases, we often perform surgery to reduce the size of the inferior turbinate 31 00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:35.160 (Inferior turbinate surgery = Rhinitis Surgery) People usually call this the Rhinitis surgery 32 00:01:35.160 --> 00:01:38.840 (But!) Depending on the cause, rhinitis can also take a form of allergic rhinitis, and 33 00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:41.320 various reasons cause rhinitis 34 00:01:41.320 --> 00:01:44.160 For example, seasonal hay fever 35 00:01:44.160 --> 00:01:47.400 and house dust mites, rhinitis with these causes 36 00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:49.640 are hard to treat with surgeries 37 00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:51.920 So because of this, after rhinitis surgeries, 38 00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:54.480 There is a misconception that there are a lot of recurrences 39 00:01:54.480 --> 00:01:56.480 Surgically treated rhinitis can treat 40 00:01:56.480 --> 00:02:01.120 enlarged turbinates causing difficulty breathing, 41 00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:04.760 and runny nose due to overly reactive mucous membranes 42 00:02:04.760 --> 00:02:07.680 It can treat these cases physically 43 00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:10.720 But when my constitution itself is when exposed to an allergen, 44 00:02:10.720 --> 00:02:13.820 the mucous membranes react, and I get a runny nose, and sneeze 45 00:02:13.820 --> 00:02:15.970 things like that cannot be solved 46 00:02:15.970 --> 00:02:19.080 So functional nasal surgeries straighten up the nasal septum 47 00:02:19.080 --> 00:02:22.720 and reduce the size of the inferior turbinate, and these are things called functional nasal surgeries 48 00:02:22.720 --> 00:02:26.120 A thing called nasal valve reconstruction can be included in functional nasal surgeries 49 00:02:26.120 --> 00:02:27.960 This concept can be a bit difficult, 50 00:02:27.960 --> 00:02:30.440 But if nostril reduction was overdone 51 00:02:30.440 --> 00:02:33.320 or if the skin itself is very thin, and the cartilage is weak, 52 00:02:33.320 --> 00:02:35.760 when you breathe in, the airway is blocked 53 00:02:35.760 --> 00:02:37.210 and if it's difficult to inhale 54 00:02:37.210 --> 00:02:39.680 We would express that as blocked nasal valve 55 00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:40.920 It retreats like this 56 00:02:40.920 --> 00:02:43.520 Like this for example 57 00:02:43.520 --> 00:02:47.780 (Normal nasal valve/ Narrow nasal valve) The valve called the nasal valve is supposed to stand like a tent, 58 00:02:47.780 --> 00:02:49.880 but when it gets sucked inside 59 00:02:49.880 --> 00:02:51.840 it causes the blocking 60 00:02:51.840 --> 00:02:53.940 (Stuffed narrow nasal valve/ widened nasal valve after surgery) So after surgery, when breathing in, 61 00:02:53.940 --> 00:02:56.140 if you experience nasal congestion 62 00:02:56.140 --> 00:02:58.580 we often perform a nasal valve reconstruction surgery 63 00:02:58.580 --> 00:03:01.720 I too actually have rhinitis 64 00:03:01.720 --> 00:03:03.320 because of seasonal hay fever 65 00:03:03.320 --> 00:03:06.080 I have used nose sprays when it feels really congested 66 00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:08.480 and endured one or two weeks 67 00:03:08.480 --> 00:03:11.480 Speaking of functional rhinoplasty and rhinitis treatment, 68 00:03:11.480 --> 00:03:13.320 I was thinking of getting a rhinitis treatment 69 00:03:13.320 --> 00:03:16.330 You can check out the video a bit later 70 00:03:16.330 --> 00:03:18.580 Experiencing rhinitis surgery 71 00:03:18.580 --> 00:03:20.580 We will get help from Dr. Hwang Soong-oh 72 00:03:20.580 --> 00:03:22.600 (Dr. Hwang Soong-oh, Plastic Surgery Specialist) who does a lot of nasal surgery in our clinic 73 00:03:22.640 --> 00:03:24.520 (I believe in you) 74 00:03:24.520 --> 00:03:26.988 Through the nasal endoscope, we will see Dr. Kim 75 00:03:26.988 --> 00:03:30.280 inner nostril and proceed 76 00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:32.460 My nose is quite congested right now 77 00:03:32.460 --> 00:03:35.240 so I expect the turbinates to be very large 78 00:03:35.240 --> 00:03:35.990 Shall we see? 79 00:03:35.990 --> 00:03:37.480 Yes, let's 80 00:03:37.533 --> 00:03:42.233 Checking the insides of the nostril with a nasal endoscope 81 00:03:42.280 --> 00:03:44.800 (Right Nostril) (Septum/ Inferior Turbinate) We can see the septum on the left, 82 00:03:44.800 --> 00:03:47.950 and the enlarged inferior turbinate on the right side 83 00:03:47.950 --> 00:03:50.260 Today, we will make the structure on the right 84 00:03:50.280 --> 00:03:53.040 shrink using coblation 85 00:03:53.040 --> 00:03:55.200 That we'll be out goal for today's procedure 86 00:03:55.200 --> 00:03:57.800 We will see the other side, so breathe 87 00:04:01.160 --> 00:04:04.710 (Left nostril) (Inferior Turbinate/ Septum) You can also see the Septum on the right as well 88 00:04:04.710 --> 00:04:07.640 and the enlarged inferior turbinate on the left 89 00:04:07.746 --> 00:04:13.746 Starting the procedure 90 00:04:14.060 --> 00:04:16.480 Now, the coblation is done 91 00:04:16.480 --> 00:04:19.480 A nosebleed can often happen after coblation, so 92 00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:23.120 I will stuff the nose for a while 93 00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:27.040 (Q. Does it hurt?) This is a numbing spray with lidocaine 94 00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:31.600 If you numb the area using this, there is no pain in the mucus membrane 95 00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:33.370 We'll spray this before going any further 96 00:04:33.670 --> 00:04:36.180 Self-numbing 97 00:04:36.180 --> 00:04:42.580 Dr. Choi Yo-an is performing the procedure on the right side 98 00:04:43.203 --> 00:04:46.953 Three minutes after the procedure 99 00:04:47.330 --> 00:04:49.480 Oh!
