What is Dorsal Hump Reduction (Reduction Rhinoplasty)?
For patients with a dorsal hump, this surgery smooths the bump in the bridge. The hump may be shaved or a silicone implant may be inserted to balance the nasal profile.
The procedure uses a closed method, approaching from inside the nose so no visible scars remain.

What is Augmentation Rhinoplasty?
To raise the nose bridge, there are two options:
1. Inserting a silicone implant into the nasal bridge.
2. Using crushed autologous rib cartilage coated with PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) to form a firm shape similar to an implant.
-Silicone Implant Method
A small incision is made inside the nostril to create minimal space for the implant, which is carefully inserted and sutured with dissolvable stitches.
Since the implant is inserted from inside the nostril, there is no visible scarring. This is ideal for those wanting a sharper nasal line.
-PRF Method
Uses the patient’s rib cartilage and PRF (a component extracted from the patient’s blood rich in growth factors and cytokines) to create a strong, implant-like structure without artificial materials.
The key feature is a natural-looking result using only autologous tissue.

Septoplasty
-
Downtime after Septoplasty
Dissection under the perichondrium and periosteum minimizes damage to vessels and tissue, reducing downtime.
Post-op, we place a silicone splint inside the nose and apply a nasal cast externally for compression.
Depending on the case, the cast may be removed after 1 week, with swelling so minimal that it is barely noticeable to others.

What is Septoplasty?
We harvest septal cartilage necessary for septal extension.
For patients requiring hump reduction, we remove the protruding septal cartilage.
With a special suction dissector (used in ENT surgery), we can collect adequate septal cartilage for grafting.

What is Osteotomy?
We use the Pushdown Technique, a special osteotomy method I presented at PRS KOREA 2021.
This narrows the nasal width and reduces any hump while preserving nasal bone structure.
Using pre-op CT scans, we perform delicate bone work to achieve a narrow and sharp nasal bridge.

What is Septal Extension & Tip Plasty?
Following Cakir's polygon concept, we lift the nasal tip with septal extension and tip plasty.
We remove excess cartilage and use suture techniques to sculpt the tip into polygons.
The optimal nasal tip angle is determined through septal extension for an ideal result.

FAQ
- Q How long do the effects of rhinoplasty and hump reduction last?
-
A
The effects are generally long-lasting. Since the procedure directly reshapes the bone and cartilage, the nose rarely reverts to its original form. However, changes in nasal shape may occur due to aging or injury. Please feel free to consult us anytime if you have any concerns.
- Q Will the scar be noticeable after a nasal septum extension procedure?
-
A
Since the open technique is used, which involves incisions inside the nasal cavity and along the columella, a scar will form between the nostrils. However, it will become almost unnoticeable over time.
- Q Who is Preservation Rhinoplasty suitable for?
-
A
It is ideal for those who wish to achieve a beautiful, refined nose while preserving its natural shape. Compared to traditional excision methods, it involves less burden and has a relatively shorter downtime.
- Q How long does post-operative swelling and bruising typically subside?
-
A
While individual results vary, swelling and bruising typically subside within 1 to 2 weeks. The final results are generally visible after 3 to 6 months.
- Q Can Preservation Rhinoplasty be combined with other procedures (like hyaluronic acid injections or thread lifts)?
-
A
Yes, it is possible. However, if performed on the same day, there are restrictions based on the combination and order of procedures. Please discuss this during your consultation.
- Q Is revision surgery possible?
-
A
Revision surgery is generally possible. However, suitability varies depending on the previous procedure and the current state of the nose, so a detailed examination is necessary.
