Nose Surgery
Aesthetic and Functional Rhinoplasty Led by Dr. Sihyun Park
Nose surgery at Dojagi Clinic is designed for patients seeking improvement in nasal shape, function, or both. Common concerns evaluated and treated include:
A low or flat nasal bridge that reduces facial dimension
Irregular or prominent nasal humps
A short or upturned nasal tip
A wide or unbalanced nasal tip
Crooked or deviated nasal structure
Breathing discomfort caused by internal nasal structure issues
Unsatisfactory results from previous nose surgery
Functional concerns such as nasal congestion or airflow obstruction
Each patient undergoes a structured consultation to assess facial proportions, nasal anatomy, and breathing function before determining the most appropriate surgical plan.

Aesthetic rhinoplasty focuses on improving the external appearance of the nose while maintaining harmony with the overall facial structure. At Dojagi Clinic, cosmetic nose surgery may address concerns such as:
Low or flat nasal bridge
Dorsal humps
Upturned or drooping nasal tips
Wide or asymmetrical nasal features
Surgical planning emphasizes natural-looking refinement rather than exaggerated changes, with careful attention to proportion, balance, and facial expression.
Functional rhinoplasty addresses internal nasal issues that may interfere with comfortable breathing. These procedures may involve correction of structures such as the nasal septum or nasal valve while also considering aesthetic balance.
At Dojagi Clinic, functional nose surgery is performed with the understanding that nasal form and function are closely connected. When appropriate, functional correction and aesthetic refinement are addressed together to support both breathing comfort and facial harmony.
Revision rhinoplasty is intended for patients who are dissatisfied with results from previous nose surgery or who experience structural or functional complications following prior procedures.
This type of surgery requires careful evaluation of existing nasal structure, scar tissue, and functional limitations. At Dojagi Clinic, revision rhinoplasty is approached with conservative planning and a focus on restoring stability, balance, and nasal function where possible.
A low nasal bridge that makes the face appear flat
An uneven or prominent nasal bridge, including hump-shaped contours
Nostrils that appear wide or a nasal tip that looks upturned
A nose that appears crooked or deviated to one side
Dissatisfaction with results from previous nose surgery performed elsewhere
Functional nasal issues such as nasal congestion or breathing discomfort
Detailed facial analysis
Nasal bone and cartilage structure
Skin thickness and tissue condition
Internal nasal anatomy related to airflow
Patient concerns and expectations
Surgery performed directly by an ENT specialist
Integrated consideration of aesthetics and function
Use of safe implants and autologous tissue when appropriate
Conservative correction aimed at long-term stability
This approach reflects the clinic’s focus on medically grounded rhinoplasty rather than trend-driven design.
Dr. Park’s professional background includes leadership roles at multiple plastic surgery and dermatology clinics, academic research experience at Seoul National University Hospital Cancer Center, and advanced training in nasal anatomy and sleep-related breathing disorders. His clinical focus spans both aesthetic nasal surgery and functional nasal correction.
With formal training and doctoral-level education in otorhinolaryngology, Dr. Park brings a medically grounded perspective to rhinoplasty, particularly in cases involving nasal airflow, structural balance, or revision surgery.
At Dojagi Clinic, Dr. Park personally conducts consultations, surgical planning, and operative procedures to ensure continuity of care and medical accountability.
Patient safety is a foundational priority in nose surgery at Dojagi Clinic. The clinic follows structured protocols throughout the surgical journey, from consultation to recovery.
Comprehensive consultation and nasal evaluation
Review of functional and aesthetic concerns
Individualized surgical planning based on anatomy
Private recovery rooms designed for physical and mental comfort
High-pressure oxygen chamber and regenerative laser care to help manage swelling and bruising
Nutritional and immune-support IV and injection programs to assist recovery
These supportive measures are intended to promote stable healing during the recovery phase.
Recovery timelines vary depending on the type of nose surgery performed and individual healing responses. Patients receive detailed post-operative instructions and scheduled follow-up visits.
Key post-surgery care guidelines include:
Cold compresses before suture removal to help reduce swelling
Avoiding pressure on the nose and face during early recovery
Refraining from smoking and alcohol for at least one month
Consistent use of prescribed medications and ointments
Gradual return to makeup after the advised recovery period
Follow-up appointments allow the medical team to monitor healing progress and address any concerns during recovery.
Nose surgery at Dojagi Clinic is not focused on dramatic alteration, but on thoughtful correction that respects facial balance, nasal function, and long-term stability—allowing patients to experience both visual harmony and comfortable breathing.
