The purpose of rhinoplasty surgery is to alter or correct the appearance of the nose. A nose job is one common name for this operation. Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that reshapes the nose by modifying its bone structure, cartilage, or skin. The terms cosmetic surgery and plastic surgery are commonly used interchangeably, although they are not the same. Cosmetic surgery aims to enhance a patient’s appearance, while plastic surgery is performed to correct or enhance physical flaws.
The American Society of Plastic Surgeons reported in 2017 that rhinoplasty (nose job) is the third most common cosmetic operation. Nevertheless, there are other reasons besides cosmetics that people seek out rhinoplasty. When a patient has been suffering from a health problem for a long time, doctors often suggest nasal surgery as a means of permanent relief. Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) is one option for those who suffer from chronic sinusitis. How many type of Nose Surgery (การ เสริม จมูก มี กี่ แบบ, which is the term in Thai) are there:
Reduction Rhinoplasty
The goal of a nose job called a “reduction rhinoplasty” is, as the name implies, to make the nose smaller. Patients who choose rhinoplasty can have their entire noses shrunk, or just the tip, a hump, or another problem area. Reduction in size is typically accomplished by removing cartilage and/or bone from the nose during this procedure.
Augmentation Rhinoplasty
Bone or tissue grafts may be used to augment the nasal tip and/or bridge during this procedure. The surgeon will often use cartilage from another area of the nose, most commonly the nasal septum. If the rhinoplastic surgeon determines that there is not enough tissue here, he or she can use any of a variety of materials to create an artificial nose. Allografts are obtained from living donors, allogeneic materials are taken from deceased donors, and autologous implants are taken from the patient themselves.
Post-Traumatic Rhinoplasty
People whose noses have been broken in an accident or via injury are the intended recipients of this particular type of rhinoplasty. Broken bones, damaged cartilage, external nose alterations, a deviated septum, and difficulty breathing are just some of the possible outcomes.
Corrective Rhinoplasty
Reconstructive rhinoplasty is the procedure surgeons turn to when the outcomes of a previous cosmetic nose job have fallen short of expectations. Either a smaller nose or a larger nose can be the result of this.
