People often say that the nose is flat, also called saddle nose. It can be divided into mild, moderate and severe. The collapsed nose is lower than the normal height, and the back of the nose is deformed to varying degrees, but the tip of the nose is saddle-shaped, hence the name. Most of them are caused by trauma, infection and congenital malformation.
Rhinoplasty includes:
1. Surgical rhinoplasty
At the beginning of rhinoplasty, the patient is first given general anesthesia or local anesthesia. Generally speaking, the plastic surgeon first separates the nasal skin from the subcutaneous soft tissue, puts it into the frame for' remodeling' action, sews up the incision, and fixes the nose just after surgery with adhesive tape to promote healing. According to the needs of different patients, autologous cartilage transplantation or general fillers are sometimes used to strengthen or change the nasal contour. Autograft tissue is usually taken from nasal septum, but it can also be taken from costal cartilage or auricular cartilage if it is not enough.
2. Non-surgical rhinoplasty
Non-surgical rhinoplasty is to inject fillers, such as collagen, hyaluronic acid and microcrystalline porcelain, to change and shape. Fill the flat part of the nose with fillers to create a sharp or smooth appearance. The whole process will not change the size of the nose, but it can still be used to correct some birth defects.
