Correction of nasal appearance and valve problems (Improve breathing)

Introduction

• رینوپلاستی (Rhinoplasty) One of the most common cosmetic and functional surgeries is to modify the appearance of the nose and improve respiratory function.. In many cases, respiratory problems caused by nasal obstruction due to structural abnormalities such as nasal blade deviation (سپتوم), The size of the nose's tentacles (Turbines) Or problems related to nasal valves. In such circumstances, in addition to rhinoplasty, valloplasty (Valve Surgery) It is also performed as a supplement to improve respiratory function. In this article from the site of Dr. Behnam Khorrami (Isfahan nose surgeon _ Jaw surgeon of Isfahan), Follow these two surgical methods, applications, techniques and expected results.

1.. Anatomy

(A)) The overall nose structure

The nose consists of three main parts:

• Bone section: Includes the nasal bones and the upper part of the septum
• The cartilage section: Includes upper and lower lateral cartilage
• Soft section: Includes the skin, mucosa and soft tissue

(B)) Nasal valves

Nasal valves are divided into two parts:

Inner valve (Internal Nasal Valve):

The crossing of the upper lateral cartilage and the nasal septum

The thinnest part of the airflow in the nose

Key role in adjusting airflow

External valve (External Nasal Valve):

Communication Tip of the nose And nose blades

Its function depends on the strength and position of the lower lateral cartilage

Any defects or weaknesses in these structures will cause air route blocking, reduced air flow and respiratory problems..

2.. رینوپلاستی (Rhinoplasty)

(A)) Definition and application

Rhinoplasty is a surgery aimed at modifying the form and function of the nose. This surgery can include nasal resize, nasal remedies, nasal tip correction, narrowing nose width, and improving it with other facial components..

(B)) Types of rhinoplasty

Open rhinoplasty (Open Rhinoplasty):

Creating a cut in the clomella area (Tissue)

Suitable for sophisticated reforms

The possibility of direct viewing of the internal structures of the nose

Closed rhinoplasty (Closed Rhinoplasty):

Creating internal cuts without external cuts

The shorter recovery period

Suitable for minor reforms to average

ج) Rhinoplasty surgery

Anesthesia: Commonly used in general anesthesia.

Cutting: Depending on the type of surgery, appropriate incisions occur.

Structure correction:

Shaving or strengthening the bone and cartilage

Reconstruction or change of position of nasal valves

Close cutting: The cuts are closed with delicate sutures.

Plastering or splint: To fix the new nose structure

د) Rhinoplasty goals

Improving the appearance of the nose
The removal of the horses
Nostril
Correction of the tip of the nose
Improve respiratory function

۳. Varotolasty (Valve Surgery)

(A)) Definition and application

Valoplasty is a surgery to regenerate and enhance the structure of nasal valves. This is usually performed as part of rhinoplasty or independently to treat nasal obstruction..

(B)) The common problems of the nasal valve

Reduce the strength of the upper side cartilage

Tailgate

Weakness at the tip of the nose and its drooping

Granular stenosis or acquired

ج) Valoplasty surgical techniques

Graft Sprider (Spreader Graft):

Putting the cartilage between the upper side cartilage and the septum

Increased angle of the inner valve

Improvement of nasal air flow

Graf the Allar Baton (Alar Batten Graft):

The use of cartilage (Usually of septum or ear)

Reinforce the outer wall of the nose

Prevent the external valve collapse

Suture the lateral cartilage:

Deformity and position of lateral cartilage

Improve the strength of the valves

Strengthening nasal blades with cartilage:

The use of nasal or earblage cartilage

Increased valve resistance

4.. Rhinoplasty and valloplasty

In many cases, rhinoplasty and valloplasty are performed simultaneously. This will improve both the appearance of the nose and its functional problems..

✳️ Suitable for combining these two surgeries:

Chronic nasal obstruction

Structural problems of internal and external valves

Deviated septum (سپتوم)

Congenital abnormalities or previous impacts

Nose

The Benefits of Rhinoplasty and Valoplasty.:

Improvement of breathing through aerial modification
Increase the beauty and proportion of the nose
Prevent the need for subsequent restorative surgeries
Improves long -term performance of nasal valves

5. Post-surgery care

✅ Primary care:

Use cold compresses to reduce swelling

Avoid hitting the nose

Abstaining from severe drainage

Keeping the head up while sleeping

✅ Long -term care:

Avoid heavy exercise for up to 6 weeks

The use of nasal salt sprays

Avoid glasses for up to 1-2 weeks

Follow the surgeon's examination sessions by the surgeon

۶. Outcomes and possible complications

✅ Expected results:

Improving the beauty of the nose
Increase the ability of breathing through the nose
increasing the self confiedence

ب possible complications:

Bleeding

The infection

Temporary or permanent anesthesia

Beauty problems (Asymmetry)

Respiratory obstruction in case of incorrect correction

۷. Conclusion

Rhinoplasty and Valoplasty as two supplement surgery methods play an important role in improving nasal function and cosmetic. Correction of nasal valves through valloplasty increases nasal air flow and reduces respiratory problems.. The combination of these two methods ensures simultaneous improvement of function and nasal form and helps the patient achieve the desired result both appearance and functionality..
