Functional Nose Rhinoplasty

Nose conditions eligible for insurance coverage
Nasal Septal Deviation / Hypertrophic Rhinitis / Nasal Valve Stenosis

The nose is a part of the body that has a connection to the respiratory system.
If there is a problem related to the function of the nose such as nasal congestion, rhinitis, sinusitis, etc., it can also be corrected when cosmetic surgery is performed such as nose pillar, hook nose, and warped nose.

Types of Functional Nose Rhinoplasty

If symptoms such as nasal congestion, rhinitis, and sinusitis appear even if the nose pillar is visibly in the correct position, nose surgery is performed at the same time as the insurance-applicable nose condition surgery by using a precise diagnosis to judge whether there is a nose condition.

Types of Functional Nose Surgery

What is nasal septal deviation?

Nasal septal deviation occurs when the nasal septal cartilage, which is located at the center of the nose and serves to hold the center, is curved to one side. Severe nasal septal deviation can cause functional disorders such as nasal congestion, rhinitis, and sinusitis.

Treatment for Nasal Septal Deviation

We improve nasal congestion and prevent recurrence by partially resecting and correcting the septum.

What is hypertrophic rhinitis?

It is an inflammatory disease that occurs in the mucous membrane that covers the inside of the nose. It is caused by allergies or structural deformations inside the nose, and is accompanied by various symptoms such as stuffy nose, sneezing, and itching.

A high frequency machine is used to constrict the enlarged mucous membrane to improve nasal congestion, issues with smelling, and headaches.

What is nasal valve stenosis?

A nasal valve is a space located on the roof inside the nose and is an important part that controls breathing. Nasal valve stenosis, which narrows this area, makes breathing difficult. It makes the nose feel stuffed, making you feel stuffy in your daily life.

Warped Nose Rhinoplasty

It straightens the line to create an elegant impression.

A curved nose can lead to issues with aesthetics and functionality. It can lead to nasal diseases such as clogging of the nose. Depending on the degree of the curve, a custom silicone implant is inserted or the warped bone is cut and corrected.

Types of Warped Nose Rhinoplasty

A warped nose is classified into three types according to the curve of each shape: c-shape, s-shape, and slope.
In most cases, both the bones and cartilage are bent, and each must be operated on in the correct way.
