**Clinic Introduction:** Rhinoplasty Research Institute in Apgujeong is a premier facility specializing in advanced techniques and comprehensive procedures to enhance nasal aesthetics and function. Their expert team offers a variety of surgical and non-surgical options tailored to the unique needs of each patient. ### Surgical Procedures **Primary Rhinoplasty:** Primary rhinoplasty is a procedure designed to sculpt the nose for the first time, correcting aesthetic issues and enhancing facial harmony. It addresses the nose's shape, size, and proportion to complement the patient's other facial features. **Revision Rhinoplasty:** Revision rhinoplasty corrects issues from a previous nasal surgery, aiming to address functional or aesthetic concerns that were not resolved initially. This procedure requires highly specialized skills due to the complexity of the corrective work. **Septoplasty:** Septoplasty is performed to correct a deviated septum, which can improve breathing by straightening the nasal passage. This functional procedure often accompanies cosmetic nose surgeries. **Tip Plasty:** Tip plasty focuses on altering the nasal tip's shape, projection, and definition to enhance overall nasal appearance. It is ideal for patients who do not need full rhinoplasty but seek refinement of the nasal tip. **Alar Reduction:** Alar reduction surgery narrows wide nostrils by removing small wedges of skin, helping to achieve a more balanced and proportionate nose. This procedure can significantly change the nose's appearance with minimal alterations. ### Non-Surgical Procedures **Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty:** Non-surgical rhinoplasty uses dermal fillers to temporarily alter the shape of the nose without surgery. It involves minimal downtime and is an excellent option for patients seeking subtle improvements or those evaluating potential surgical results. ### Specialized Procedures **Functional Rhinoplasty:** Functional rhinoplasty encompasses procedures designed to improve nasal airflow and breathing, often combining septoplasty or other structural corrections. This approach addresses both functional impairments and aesthetic concerns. **Ethnic Rhinoplasty:** Ethnic rhinoplasty respects cultural and ethnic features while refining the nose's appearance to achieve harmony with other facial characteristics. The goal is to enhance the nose while preserving the patient's unique ethnic identity. ### Add-On Procedures **Nasal Valve Repair:** Nasal valve repair is targeted at strengthening or reconstructing the nasal valves to improve airflow and alleviate breathing difficulties. This procedure is vital for patients with collapsed nasal valves or chronic nasal obstruction. **Turbinoplasty:** Turbinoplasty reduces the size of the nasal turbinates to enhance breathing without compromising their essential function. It's often performed alongside other nasal surgeries to maximize overall results. --- These procedures showcase the Rhinoplasty Research Institute's commitment to blending aesthetic excellence with functional improvement, ensuring patients achieve both beauty and better breathing.
