Abstract

|
The correction of deviated nose is the most challenging step among various procedures of rhinoplasty. Many effective surgical methods for correction of bony and cartilaginous deviation have been developed since the beginning of rhinoplasty, however it is not easy to choose appropriate surgical method for each patients. Surgical procedure should be personalized depending on patients¡¯ characteristics of nasal framework and covering skin, therefore same method cannot be applied to all patients. Size, strength and thickness of bony and cartilaginous structure, thickness of skin, existence of nasal hump are the essential components which should be considered. Surgical method for correction of deviated nose cannot be applied uniformly to patients, and should be tailored to individual patient. For this reason, rhinoplasty surgeon should be skilled at various techniques of corrective rhinoplasty.
