rhinoplasty (Silicone prosthesis / Gore-Tex)

Insertion of silicon prosthesis or Gore-Tex into the nasal bridge to raise the nasal bridge.
When the bridge of the nose is straight, the eyes are emphasized and the entire face looks much more well-rounded. It is effective when you want to make the nose as a whole higher in shape.

Recommended for this type of person

Those who want to have height and thickness in the bridge of the nose.
Those who want to change the line of the nose
For those who want to have a clear nose.
Those who want to have a three-dimensional face.
Those who wish to make continuous changes.

Features of this hospital

At our clinic, we use the 3D simulation software "vectra" before surgery to determine the ideal height of the silicone prosthesis and Gore-Tex during the consultation with the patient by viewing a 3D image of the postoperative result.
We can also create custom-made prostheses to fit the patient.

Postoperative course and follow-up

Treatment Time: 30 min.

Postoperative hospital visit: Required 1 week after surgery No stitches

Postoperative swelling: 1-3 weeks (depending on the individual)

plaster cast: 3 days; can be removed from the 4th day. Can be removed by yourself. (In some cases, removal may take up to 1 week)

Treatment on the day of counseling: possible

anesthesia: Cream anesthesia, combined with local anesthesia
*Combined use of laughing gas and intravenous anesthesia is possible upon request.
(Additional fees apply.)

shower: Possible from the day of the surgery, but the nose is in a cast, so the face cannot get wet. (3 days)

make: Possible from the next day except for the nose

face-washing: Not available for 3 days; available from the 4th day.

Postoperative risks and side effects

-Philadelphia infection: If there is prolonged "heat," "redness," "severe pain," or "severe swelling" in the treated area after surgery, infection is suspected.
If left untreated, symptoms such as skin breakage and pus, protrusion of the prosthesis/goatex, nostril plugging, and indentation of the nasal surface may occur, so treatment is always necessary.

-Dr. Nasal curvature/displacement: The inserted prosthesis Gore-Tex is immobilized in a cast for 3 days after surgery to prevent it from moving, but bending or misalignment may still occur.

-David Contour of the prosthesis is raised.: If calcification (bone grains) occurs in the capsular capsule bag that forms around the prosthesis, or if the skin becomes thinner, the shape of the prosthesis will show through the skin.
