Rhinoplasty: with surgery vs. without surgery
The decision for a Rhinoplasty depends on individual wishes and needs. Basically, we differentiate between surgical rhinoplasty (with surgery) and minimally invasive methods (without surgery). While nose surgery enables permanent changes, such as improved breathing after nasal septum surgery or aesthetic treatment of a hooked nose, non-surgical rhinoplasty, such as hyaluronic acid, offers a gentle alternative with temporary results.
The most important differences and facts at a glance can be found here:
Rhinoplasty in Frankfurt
Rhinosurgery (including rhinoplasty) optimizes nose shape, improves breathing and creates harmonious proportions — individually, precisely and with the latest, gentle techniques.
Nose surgery is one of the most demanding and individual procedures in plastic-aesthetic surgery. It is not only used by aesthetic improvement of nose shape, but can also cause functional problems such as restricted nasal breathing correct. Every nose is unique, so successful rhinoplasty requires a precise analysis, many years of experience and a distinctive aesthetic sensitivity. The aim of the procedure is to provide a harmonious balance between nose and facial features to create and at the same time maintain or restore natural functionality.
Today, modern surgical techniques make it possible, in particular gentle and individually adjusted corrections that are tailored to the needs and wishes of patients. Careful advice, realistic expectations and detailed planning are essential for an optimal result.
Whether it's refining the tip of the nose, straightening a hump or improving breathing — rhinoplasty offers a wide range of options for sustainably improving well-being and quality of life.
Facts about nose surgery
Transparent and informed about your desired nose.
Which nose do you have?
A crooked nose is a nose shape in which the nose asymmetrical Is or a lateral curvature has. This irregularity can be caused by various factors, including genetic predisposition, accidents, or traumatic events. A crooked nose is also often associated with functional disabilities How are respiratory problems associated with the quality of life.
Depending on the type of misalignment, the aesthetics and function of the nose are determined by Straightening the cartilaginous part of the nasal septum or Adjustment of the asymmetrical bony nasal pyramid improved. In doing so, the Removing a hump be necessary to open the roof of the nose to achieve a repositioning of the nasal axis.
A hump nose is a common nose shape characterized by a increased outward curvature of the bridge of the nose Distinguishes. The visible curvature is usually excess cartilage or protruding bone, which can be felt under the skin.
To correct a hump nose, the removes excess cartilage and bone and reshaped the bridge of the nose to achieve a harmonious nose shape. In the case of a cartilaginous hump nose, the cartilaginous portion of the nasal septum is straightened with positional sutures and “spreader grafts”, small cartilage splints to open the inner nasal valve. In the case of a bony hump nose, bone is removed and the bridge of the nose is reconstructed.
A saddle nose is through a sharp lowering of the bridge of the nose recognizable, which mainly occurs after accidents or operations. There is usually a hole in the nasal septum, which causes the sinking.
To restore a straight nose bridge, a saddle nose is used nasal septum surgery performed, during which the bridge of the nose is reshaped. To compensate for the missing material on the bridge of the nose, own cartilage used as a transplant and thus reconstructs the bridge of the nose.
A pseudo-crooked nose is a Asymmetry of the two halves of the face. The center between the eyes does not correspond to the middle between the upper lips; the face does not look straight. This is usually one that appears on almost every face Widening one half of the face and the nose is crooked on the face, although it starts centrally between the eyes and runs centrally towards the upper lip.
Here, it must be decided whether a bony-cartilaginous axis correction should be performed or whether a straightening should be carried out by augmenting (building up) the concave side with septal or ear cartilage.
Enlarged nasal conchae, known as mussel hypertrophy, are common in patients with long-lasting allergies and lead to ventilation disorders. Nasal conchae are bones covered with mucous membrane that increase the surface area of the nasal cavity. They lie on the outer wall of each nostril, with the lower nasal concha usually being the largest and often causing airway blockages. Enlarged medium-sized mussels can cause respiratory obstructions due to concha bullosa. Partially reducing the size of the nasal concha improves nasal ventilation, making recovery quick and painless. Allergy sufferers may need a reduction of the mucous membrane again after 1-2 years.
Nasal septum surgery (deviated septum)
When a nasal septum warped is (nasal septal abnormalities), this can cause significant discomfort and surgical correction may be necessary. Dr. med. Berkei, renowned specialist in plastic and aesthetic surgery, performs this procedure with maximum precision and taking aesthetic aspects into account. The aim of nasal septum surgery is to straighten the nasal septum to allow uniform air circulation through both nostrils. Studies show that symptoms often improve after surgery.
Before an operational decision is made, a comprehensive investigation and advice is carried out by Dr. med. Berkei to take patients' individual needs and expectations into account in the best possible way. She attaches great importance to finding a tailor-made solution and discussing all benefits and potential risks in detail. In some cases, it may also be useful to obtain a second medical opinion.
Impaired nasal breathing can significantly reduce the quality of life — especially if it causes symptoms such as:
- headaches
- weariness
- Common sinus infections
- nosebleed
- olfactory disorder
- Snoring with shortness of breath (sleep apnea).
If the cause of these problems is a misalignment or curvature of the nasal septum, surgical correction (septoplasty) can help.
Causes of nasal septum curvature
One curved nasal septum can either be congenital or develop during growth, particularly during adolescence. In this phase, the deviated septum come under pressure and deform as a result of the growth of the facial skull and upper jaw. It is therefore recommended that a Nasal septum surgery only after growth is complete, i.e. from around the age of 17.
Also external influences such as Accidents, blows, or bumps to the nose may cause a curvature of the nasal septum and impair nasal breathing.
Is nasal septum surgery useful?
Not every deviated septum requires surgical correction. First of all, often decongestant or cortisone nasal sprays used to alleviate the symptoms. If these measures are not sufficient and respiratory restrictions remain significant, a Straightening of the nasal septum (septoplasty) be a sensible solution.
Before an operation, it is carried out at Dr. med. Berkei a comprehensive examination to ensure that the symptoms are actually caused by the curvature of the nasal septum and that surgery is the right treatment option.
