When it comes to achieving facial harmony, the nose plays a pivotal role. However, complex nasal issues such as a deviated septum, a prominent dorsal hump, and a hanging nasal tip require a highly specialized approach. At Noselab Plastic Surgery in Seoul, South Korea, Dr. Chayoung Kang specializes in addressing these intricate concerns using advanced closed rhinoplasty techniques.
In this case study, we explore the journey of a patient who sought to correct a visibly deviated nose, smooth out a dorsal hump, and lift a drooping, hanging tip—all without external scarring.
Understanding the Patient’s Concerns
During the initial consultation, Dr. Kang identified three primary structural issues that needed to be addressed to achieve the patient’s aesthetic and functional goals:
- Deviated Nose: The nasal bridge was visibly crooked, disrupting the overall symmetry of the face and potentially causing functional breathing issues.
- Dorsal Hump: A noticeable bump on the nasal bridge created an uneven, harsh side profile.
- Hanging Tip (Drooping Columella): The nasal tip pointed downward, making the nose appear longer and older than it actually was.
The Noselab Solution: Advanced Closed Rhinoplasty
As a renowned closed rhinoplasty specialist, Dr. Chayoung Kang designed a comprehensive surgical plan that addressed all three concerns entirely through incisions made inside the nostrils. This means the patient would experience zero visible external scarring on the columella.
1. Straightening the Deviated Nose
To correct the deviation, Dr. Kang performed a precise osteotomy and septoplasty. By realigning the nasal bones and the septum, he restored a straight, symmetrical frontal appearance while simultaneously improving the patient’s nasal airway.
2. Smoothing the Dorsal Hump
The prominent hump was carefully shaved down and contoured. Dr. Kang’s meticulous technique ensures that the bridge remains smooth and natural-looking, avoiding the “scooped” or overly operated look that can sometimes occur with hump removal.
3. Elevating the Hanging Tip
To fix the drooping tip, the lower lateral cartilages were repositioned and supported. By lifting the columella and refining the tip angle, Dr. Kang created a youthful, elegant profile that perfectly complements the patient’s facial features.
The Results: A Harmonious, Natural Profile
The post-operative results speak for themselves. The patient now enjoys a beautifully straight nasal bridge, a smooth side profile free of any humps, and a lifted, refined nasal tip. Thanks to the closed rhinoplasty approach, the recovery was smoother, swelling was minimized, and there are absolutely no visible scars.
