Many patients seek rhinoplasty to improve the overall appearance and balance of their nose. Nasal contracture, a condition where the nose appears shortened or upturned due to scarring or previous surgery, can be a challenging issue to address.
Problem / Baseline
This patient presented with concerns about nasal contracture, likely resulting from prior surgery or other factors. The specific details of their medical history and initial nasal structure are important factors when planning any surgical intervention.
Surgical Approach
In this case, a closed rhinoplasty approach was chosen. This technique involves making all incisions inside the nose, minimizing visible scarring. Dr. Kan Chaeyong individualized the surgical plan to address the patient’s specific needs and the underlying causes of the contracture. The choice of a closed approach, or any other surgical technique, is always based on a comprehensive evaluation of the patient’s anatomy and goals.
Outcome / Improvement
The result demonstrates a noticeable improvement in the patient’s nasal appearance. The contracture has been addressed, leading to a more natural and balanced nasal profile. As with any surgical procedure, individual results may vary.
Disclaimer: Results may vary. Consult with Dr. Kan Chaeyong to determine the best course of treatment for your individual needs.
