Revision Rhinoplasty

What is Revision Rhinoplasty ?

The surgery for those who already had previous rhinoplasty but haven’t satisfied with the result aesthetically or functionally.

In most cases, people get revision nose surgery for various reasons such as different shape and inflammation. However, revision surgery requires much more advanced techniques and experience than rhinoplasty, which is why it’s important, so you are advised to get revision rhinoplasty from our well-experienced surgeons.

For those who are considering to receive revision rhinoplasty:

The majority of individuals who have received primary rhinoplasty forgo getting revision rhinoplasty because they think it is too risky to try. More likely, they don’t trust revision rhinoplasty itself due to the disappointment and distrust about nose surgery that they developed from the failure of their primary surgery. However, we strongly recommend you to rid yourself from this mindset and to regain confidence and trust in revision rhinoplasty.

At JW Korea Anesthetic Hospital, we have specialists with enriched experience in nose job surgery field, which will provide you with a satisfactory result of the operation.

We recommend Nose Revision (Revision Rhinoplasty) to:

• Those whose implant is slanted, shifting or visible.
• Those whose tip or bridge turns red.
• Those who have extremely operated looks.
• Those whose nose is inflamed.
• Those whose nose turns into a snub nose or the length of nose is shortened.

JW’s Revision Rhinoplasty Cases:

1. Tilted nose implant

Surgical method: We will remove the slant implant, which doesn’t fit to your nasal base, and the readjusted implant will be inserted into your nose. However, if your nasal skin became thin, then we will operate by returning your nasal skin to its original thickness. The thin skin will be augmented with dermis, corium or fascia.

2. Nose ridge too high

Surgical method: In this case, the silicon is removed, and the height of nose ridge is adjusted lower with a new implant. Also, the wide nose bone is cut and the width of nose ridge is narrowed, which gives a sharper look even with a lower ridge.

3. Skin turns red or white

Surgical method: The skin turning red or white is due to poor blood circulation that is caused by skin thinning. If this condition is not corrected quickly, the skin will get thinner and the silicone inside can penetrate the skin. We would remove the silicone or cartilage causing this problem and correct the thin skin of dorsum and tip by reinforcing it with artificial or autologous dermis.

4. Low nose tip

Surgical method: The nasal septum cartilage inside the nose is used to give a support to the nose tip. After making it stabled, cartilage is transplanted to keep it from getting lower again.

5. Contracted nose (upturned nose)

Surgical method: For upturned nose surgery, using either cartilage grafting techniques of nasal septum or rib cartilage grafting techniques can bring a very positive result. This surgery releases the agglutination between all scarred tissues and separates the capsular tissues, pulls the cartilage of the nasal tip downwards to a proportional length and position, and fixes the tip through use of nasal cartilage or rib cartilage.
