For those who want shape correction, such as for a hooked nose or a deviated nose
For those who want to solve functional problems such as nasal congestion together

Things to Consider

It takes 3 to 6 months to complete the final shape.
Factors requiring revision surgery, such as implant contracture and inflammation, exist.
The burden of surgery and the cost are quite high.

Side Effects & Precautions

If you experience signs of inflammation (persistent pain or redness), please visit the hospital immediately.
Smoking hinders recovery and tissue engraftment, so quitting smoking is necessary.
