Winter and Rhinoplasty

It is the heart of winter right now and many people wonder about how this can affect surgery. Its summer and spring a better time than fall and winter? How does the cold affect the nose post-rhinoplasty? I'm sure many of you had these questions, but they were such mundane questions so you probably didn't think much of it at the same time. The key to rhinoplasty in the winter is actually not the cold, but rather the dryness. As you all know the nose is used as a filter for your body. However, in the winter people tend to stay indoors with the heat on. This causes extreme levels of dryness that are comparable to the Sahara Desert in Africa. Therefore, it is not the winter cold that is harmful, but the everyday habits of most people in the winter that affect the results of surgery. Today I would like to help all of you make sure that you stay warm, but inform you of how to set the atmosphere for post-surgery rhinoplasty.

Humidifier. 

A Humidifier is a must in the winter. Heat rises in the room and causes the room to be stuffy because the hot air never leaves the room. As a result heat from the heater only dries out the room without replenishing the room with new liquids in the air. Not only is this bad for your skin, but it is detrimental to your nose. Your nose will get dried up and crusty. When your nose is healing from operation, you should be able to make sure that the inside of your nose is moist for optimal conditions. That is why we highly recommend having a humidifier in your house in order to make sure the air is not so dry.

Drink A LOT of Fluids

We cannot stress  this enough. Your nose thrives off of the abundance of bodily fluids. However, while people drink a lot in the summer because they are hot, many of us tend to drink less in the winter. You can fill up on humidifiers and different types of lotions, but many people don't realize that the main reason why they have dry skin discomfort in their nose is because they don't hydrate their body well enough. It is actually imperative that one drinks a lot of water during the winter because of the dryness of the environment. Don't forget it!

Saline Spray or Gel and Salt Water

Post surgery, it takes time for the mucus production to return to normal levels. The functionality of the nose is hindered because of the surgery performed on it. Therefore the use of saline spray or gel will help keep the nose moist and maintain levels that are ideal for the nose to recover from surgery. This is not only for the winter time, but for the summertime as well.

What Implants Would Be the Best for Rhinoplasty?





Not sure about what implants would be the best for your nose? We got you! 

There are some options for rhinoplasty, and each one of them has their own advantages.





1.     Silicone


Silicon is the most commonly used material in rhinoplasty especially for female rhinoplasty. It is used for adding height on the bridge, and good for making a sophisticated, defined shape.

When silicone is used for the nose bridge, the possibility of the shape changing is fairly low.

GNG adopts Ultra-Soft Silicone, which is the most soft and elastic material among silicones. It is less likely to have reflection through the skin than the original silicone.

Also, if any problem situation happens, it can be easily removed.


2.     Gore-tex



Gore-tex has a tendency to be attached to body tissue,
 so it is used for male rhinoplasty since they are more active and it’s strong against shock, or for those who has very thin skin. 
Usually male patients prefer gore-tex because it creates a natural line.


 3.     Cartilage (Donated or Your Own Rib Cartilage)

If you are against any kind of implants or have any complications after rhinoplasty using implants, you can consider rib cartilage! Either donated cartilage or your own rib cartilage. Your rib cartilage is the safest and strongest material for rhinoplasty. So it’s used for complicated revision rhinoplasty, or for those who live abroad and cannot visit Korea often, or for those who just wants to trim down the bridge. 

GNG makes the cartilage into the finely diced powder and wrap it in a fascia. With this technique, the absorption rate decreases compared to just using dermis. 



According to the individual’s conditions, our highly experienced rhinoplasty specialist will recommend you the most suitable material for your case during a face-to-face consultation. Do not hesitate to contact and visit us! J

GNG Rhinoplasty for a Long/Arrow Nose


GNG Hospital identifies the exact problem with a thorough examination, finding the best solution of your case.

What is a Rhinoplasty for a Long/Arrow Nose?
: A long/arrow nose covers a philtrum with the droopy tip. It is caused by the wrong position of the alar cartilage and the excessive development of septal cartilage.
  GNG performs a cartilage reposition and septoplasty at the same time, shortening and elevating the tip of your nose.


Self-Diagnosis for a Long/Arrow Nose
: When looked from the side, a long/arrow nose  has a shorter nasolabial angle than a normal nose. The nose especially looks longer when you smile. Also, the tip is quite droopy, covering a philtrum.



The Benefits of GNG Rhinoplasty for a Long/Arrow Nose

  Point 1 - Provides the best solution of your case
   : A rhinoplasty for a long/arrow nose requires the fully experienced specialists, who can provide all the solutions with a thorough examination. GNG specialists analyse the cause of your case and perform the best operation that suits you.

            
   

  Point 2 - Implants for the Strong Support on the Tip, Preventing a Recurrence
   : After correcting a long/arrow nose with an alar cartilage reposition and septoplasty, implants such as your own cartilage can be used on the tip to prevent a recurrence.



  Point 3 - Correcting a Long/Arrow Nose with a Hump, Deviation, Nasal Congestion all at once!
   : A long/arrow nose might accompany a deviation, a hump, and nasal congestion. GNG analyses your nasal structure thoroughly with 3D-CT prior to operation and corrects the aesthetical and functional issues of your case, which can only be done by a fully experienced specialist.

        Aesthetical Surgery                                 Functional Surgery      
         Long/Arrow Nose                                      Nasal Valve Reconstruction
         Deviated Nose       Correct all at once!           Septoplasty
         Hump Nose


GNG Thorough Diagnosis

: GNG performs a thorough examination prior to surgery with a nasal endoscope, a full body examination, and 3D-CT to make sure our patients' safety.
   1. Nasal Endoscope
   - Observe the nasal cavity and check if you have nasal disorder or inflammation, etc.  
  2. Full Body Examination
   - Make the safest surgery plan with up to 50 body examinations.
 3. 3D-CT Scan
   - Identify the condition of your nostril structure and find the exact cause of your case.


The cases for GNG's Long/Arrow Nose rhinoplasty.
1. In case your nose looks longer when you smile
  2. In case the length of your nose ruins the ratio of the face
  3. In case the length of your nose makes you look older
  4. In case you want to fix the aesthetic and functional issues at once

Functional Surgery at GNG Hospital along with rhinoplasty at once!


When you have deviated nose or difficulty of breathing, it is highly likely you would have nasal obstruction(deviated septum/enlarged turbinates/narrow nasal valve). It can be inborn or acquired. 

* Symptoms of deviated septum, chronic hypertrophic rhinitis and nasal valve stenosis: A deviated septum is a condition in which the nasal septum composed of the bone and cartilage is significantly off center, leading to enlargement of the middle or inferior turbinates. It causes nasal congestion in most cases, but if it gets worse, it is accompanied by several symptoms requiring surgical correction.

There are 3 types of functional surgery to fix deviated nose and inner structure.

1. Septoplasty: The nasal septum is opened to expose the septum cartilage and bones, then the deviated part is straightened, fixed in place, and the incision is sutured.
2. Turbinoplasty: After the nasal mucosa is incised, turbinate bones and the nasal mucosa are removed as much as necessary.
3. Nasal Valve Reconstruction: Autologous or donated cartilage is used to widen the narrow nasal valve.

Our rhinoplasty and ENT specialists consider not only outer shape but also function and inner structure so patient can get the aesthetic surgery and functional surgery at the same time at GNG Hospital! :)

Nasal Cleaning After Rhinoplasty !



 Nasal Cleansing After Rhinoplasty

[Purpose]
It takes 3~4 weeks for mucous to be regenerated. Until then, nasal mucous membrane is swollen which creates excessive bleeding and mucous in the first few weeks which can cause nasal congestion and hinder regeneration of mucous. After care is just as important as surgery, itself. When patients clean the nasal passage after surgery by themselves, it is helpful for mucous to be regenerated quickly.

[Preparation supplies] 50cc syringe, saline solution 0.9% (you can buy it in any pharmacy for the purpose of nasal cleansing), scar cream (you can start applying this cream from the 3rd week post-op/you can purchase this from any pharmacy)
**The ointment our hospital provided is not scar cream.

[Method]
1.     Tilt your face downwards and insert the syringe in one side of nose.
2.     Open your mouth and make ‘Ah~’ sound and slowly inject saline solution into your nose.
3.     Saline solution and nasal discharge can come out with some blood when the scabs fall off. If blood comes out from the nose, you can gently put a bit of tissue in the nose to stop the bleeding.
4.     If the blood doesn’t stop, drink ice water for 30 mins after putting tissue in the nose. If it doesn’t work, contact us and come to our hospital or go to a nearby emergency room. 
5.     Do this 3~4 times a day up to 1 month.

6.     Use 100cc of saline solution per side each time.

Friends' Recommendation,GNG Hopspital!

#V-line #Genioplasty #crooked nose #noplant rhinoplasty #nasal valve surgery

Before surgery

I had an insecurity about protruded cheek bone and angular jaw which made my face look bigger ,compare to my skinny and small body size.
And my crooked nose made my face even more angular and protruded :(
Even though, I am early 20s but look so old...
One of the staffs in GNG Hospital who is also my friend recommended me to get rhinoplasty.
I didn't want to use any foreign implants so decided to get Noplant surgery which is GNG Hospital's specialty.

Right after being discharged

I was discharged 1 day after my surgery.
I got facial contouring as well so had more swelling which caused difficulty of breathing.
I could be patient imaging my beautiful face after full recovery. 
When I was discharged, GNG Hospital gave me some more gauze, gargle and ice pack, ect.
7th day post-op

Swelling went down to my lower face so my face looks fat but I could see protruded cheek bone and angular jaws are improved after the surgery.
I was so happy :)
I think time will heal everything especially my bruise.

14th day post-op

I thought it would be perfect once my swelling disappears!
I don't have protruded side cheek bone anymore and this is exactly what I wanted.
Yeah!!!

21st day post-op

From the side, my nose bridge looks too high but it's only for now and eventually it will get lower and natural.

1 month post-op
I have seen the doctor for 3rd week follow up.
And I went to Europe for a month~
I recovered in Europe hahaha
I was worried but I walked around a lot in Europe which reduced my swelling faster!
And I could enjoy food without any discomfort :)

2 months post-op

This is me in the return flight.
Swelling went down a lot but I gained weight Oops....
3 months post-op
It's been 3 months post-op!!
I had a professional photo shoot.
 Thanks GNG Hospital for giving me a new life and especially Dr.Choi and Dr.Hong who performed my surgery~^^
