The collapse of the bridge of the nose is called saddle nose deformity in medicine, which mainly shows that the bridge of the nose is obviously sunken and collapses into a saddle shape, thus affecting the function and beauty, especially for young people, and it will also bring psychological burden, which should be corrected by surgery. Due to the progress of modern medicine and plastic surgery, many hospitals can do surgery to correct saddle nose deformity. The operation is not complicated, but it must be designed accurately, disinfected thoroughly and operated carefully to achieve good results. It is worth noting that many local private "beauticians" are also doing this kind of surgery to repair the collapsed nose. They lack professional study and formal training, and only aim at making profits. Therefore, the success rate of surgery is not high, and it is easy to cause adverse consequences. So for this kind of orthopedic surgery, they should go to a bigger specialized hospital or a general hospital in a big city.

Nasal collapse is mainly treated by filling, which can be prosthetic material, artificial material, autologous material or other foreign bodies. Prosthesis includes silica gel and swelling; Artificial materials include hyaluronic acid, collagen and hydroxyapatite, but hydroxyapatite is not desirable; Autologous materials include ear cartilage, nasal septum cartilage, costal cartilage, fascia, fat, dermis and so on. Foreign substances include foreign cartilage or bone.

The collapse of the bridge of the nose is generally that the part from the root of the nose to the back of the nose is too depressed, which will make the facial features look extremely flat, the distance between the eyes is too large, and it looks dull and lacks aesthetic feeling, and the middle part of the face is flat and has no three-dimensional sense. Usually, due to the support of the nasal bone, a prosthesis will be used to cushion the bridge of the nose. Buffering the bridge of the nose will enhance the three-dimensional sense of the nose and face, make the eye distance look closer, enlarge the eyes visually and make the eyes more vivid.

What is the ideal bridge of the nose? The height of the bridge of the nose is about 1.2cm for males and 1. 1cm for females. The nasal frontal angle is about 1.20- 1.30 degrees, the nasal tip angle is about 85-90 degrees, and the nasolabial angle is about 90-95 degrees.

How to improve nose collapse surgery?

Most of the corrective methods for nasal collapse are to implant a prosthesis in the bridge of the nose to improve the height, because the prosthesis has nasal bone support and can be used safely. Generally, the nasal tissue is separated by nostril margin incision, the prosthesis is opened and implanted into the tunnel cavity, the carved prosthesis is put in and stitched, and the nasal tip is shaped with auricular cartilage and nasal septum cartilage. Types of rhinoplasty The common types of rhinoplasty can be divided into three categories: prosthetic rhinoplasty (silicone rhinoplasty and rhinoplasty), autologous cartilage rhinoplasty and injection rhinoplasty.

1. Prosthetic rhinoplasty: The swollen body has small pores and is compatible with the human body, but if the doctor's skills are not good enough or the operating environment is not good, it is prone to infection; Silica gel has a wide range of uses and is easy to carve and shape. If there is rejection, it is easier to produce capsule and capsule contracture.

2. Autologous cartilage rhinoplasty: Cartilage rhinoplasty will be absorbed more or less. The main advantage is that it adopts its own cartilage. The problems of rejection and infection are much lower for silica gel and swelling, and it is quite suitable for some patients who do not accept prostheses. Cartilage is generally used at the tip of the nose.

3. Hyaluronic acid injection rhinoplasty: The doctor will knead and shape the nose according to the preoperative design. Its advantages are convenience and less trauma. After the operation, the nose is stiff, the bridge of the nose and the alar are more stereoscopic, but the relative effect is not lasting. After long-term injection, the diffusion of hyaluronic acid will gradually widen the bridge of the nose.
