Prologue

A crooked nose refers to asymmetry of the nasal bone or cartilage caused congenitally or by trauma. A deviated nose throws off facial balance and raises the likelihood of ENT conditions such as rhinitis or sinusitis. Because crooked nose surgery takes the internal structure into account as well as appearance, it improves both the function and the shape of the nose for a highly satisfying result.

Types of crooked nose

Let's look at the types of crooked nose.

A severely crooked nose involves the upper nasal bone, the lower lateral cartilage, the alar cartilage and the internal structure supporting them,

septal cartilage — when these components are deviated at the same time, surgery to straighten them

is required. In most cases the nasal bone is misaligned, so osteotomy realigns the position, and

and the crooked cartilage must also be corrected.

A crooked nose involves several problems at once, so a systematic approach with a specialist medical team is essential

It is important to build a precise surgical plan through consultation.

Surgery

APEX crooked nose surgery method

How is APEX crooked nose surgery performed?

When the nasal bone is deviated

Performing osteotomies on both sides of the deviated nasal bone and straightening it can create a symmetrical, straight nose.

If the surface of the nasal bone is uneven, additional osteotomy can straighten it more evenly.

When the septal cartilage is deviated

Part of the deviated septal cartilage is trimmed and straightened, and cartilage is grafted onto the bent area for proper correction.
