Case Photo - Rhinoplasty

I am Alice. I always felt my nose was very flat, and contouring took a lot of time whenever I did my makeup. I had wanted to get rhinoplasty for a long time but lacked the courage. I tried thread lifting four times, which was quite painful and ineffective, and my nasal bridge even widened. Eventually, I decided to go for rhinoplasty.

Choosing Chimera and Autologous Rib
Here's Why...

I was particularly concerned about the bridge of my nose and wanted a more defined look, similar to European or Thai styles. I showed my desired nose shape photos to the consultant, who understood my preferences and communicated them to the surgeon. The materials were chosen based on the doctor's professional recommendation. We decided on using Chimera combined with autologous rib cartilage to adjust the nasal bridge and tip. Rib cartilage was chosen for its superior support compared to ear cartilage, achieving the look I wanted.

Swelling Gone in a Week, Hidden Scars
No Pain Post-Surgery

There was no pain post-surgery, except for slight swelling around the nose and eyes on the third and fourth days. I took the anti-inflammatory medication prescribed by the clinic, drank plenty of water, iced the area frequently, and took collagen supplements. The swelling subsided in about a week. The incisions were made under the nose tip and inside the nostrils, making the scars nearly invisible. The only inconvenience was constant runny nose, but I couldn't blow my nose hard due to the incisions. I had to gently wipe with a cotton swab.

Chimera Rhinoplasty
The Best Investment
I've Made

Before & After
Before
After

I no longer need to contour my nose when doing makeup. At most, I just add some highlights. In photos, my nose looks flawless, and my features appear much more defined with just eye makeup and some European-style contact lenses. I love how I look now! My family and friends also compliment me on how beautiful I've become, all without any negative feedback. I believe the nose is the most crucial feature on the face, so getting rhinoplasty was a decision I don't regret. For those considering it, be brave and go for it; rhinoplasty is a fantastic investment!

Chimera Rhinoplasty
Combining the Advantages of Silicone and Goretex

Chimera Nasal Model

Chimera uses a silicone core and a Goretex outer layer, thus retaining the elasticity, one-piece integration, and moldability of silicone, while the outer layer of Goretex completely isolates the silicone from body tissues, reducing inflammation, capsular contracture, displacement, deformation, and the likelihood of calcification. Chimera maintains the firmness of silicone (beneficial for support) while also offering the soft touch of Goretex, allowing for a natural nose shape, available in both I-shaped and L-shaped models.


Two Surgical Techniques for Crafting a Refined Nose

1 Two-stage Rhinoplasty: Involves both the nasal bridge and the tip. The implant is "pre-formed" to elevate and extend the bridge, with autologous ear cartilage used to pad the tip as a buffer. The "closed" surgical method fixes the incision inside the nostril, leaving virtually no scars, but with limited malleability, not suitable for complex nasal corrections, ideal for those seeking a pronounced nasal bridge.

Two-stage Rhinoplasty

2 Three-stage Rhinoplasty: Involves the nasal bridge, columella, and tip, also known as structural rhinoplasty. The implant is "segmented" to elevate the bridge, making major adjustments to the nose shape, with autologous ear cartilage used to pad the tip and refine the tip and nostrils, also correcting issues like a crooked septum. The "open" surgical method, starting from the columellar incision, allows for sculpting low bridges, wide nostrils, upturned noses and other complex nose shapes, fully customizable to meet the patient's needs.

Three-stage Rhinoplasty

Whether it's two-stage or three-stage rhinoplasty, both can use the Chimera model. The medical team at NAISS CLINIC will discuss and evaluate with you, choosing the right surgical method based on different needs to create your perfect nose shape.

ATTENTION
Chimera Rhinoplasty Precautions

    1
  • After surgery, continue to apply ice to the forehead, eye area, and glabella for the first three days. Do this 5-6 times a day, for 15-30 minutes each time. Avoid pressing down hard while icing.
  • 2
  • Start warm compresses after stitches are removed, following the same method as icing, to help reduce swelling and bruising.
  • 3
  • It's normal to have some blood-tinged discharge for the first three days after surgery. If there is significant bleeding or severe nasal congestion, contact your doctor immediately.
  • 4
  • Avoid sleeping on your stomach for the first week after surgery and try not to wear glasses to prevent pressure on the nasal bridge.
  • 5
  • Maintain cleanliness around the eyes to avoid infections like conjunctivitis, which could lead to nasal infection through the nasolacrimal duct.
  • 6
  • After surgery, steer clear of cigarettes, alcohol, coffee, spicy foods, and tea to prevent swelling or impair wound healing.
  • 7
  • Refrain from blowing your nose hard or picking it to avoid bleeding at the surgical site.
  • 8
  • Avoid bending over, lowering your head, and engaging in vigorous exercise after surgery.
  • 9
  • Elevate your head with pillows while sleeping to minimize swelling.

FAQ
About Chimera Rhinoplasty

No! Rhinoplasty involves the skin and mucosal tissue layers of the nose, without affecting the olfactory nerves or damaging the nasal mucosa structure. Therefore, it won't impact your sense of smell or cause any breathing discomfort.

Within the first two weeks after rhinoplasty, the nose can be swollen and bruised with serous fluid and blood seepage; one month post-surgery, the swelling begins to subside, and there's no longer significant bleeding; around 4-6 weeks later, the shape will mostly stabilize, increasingly resembling a natural nose shape.

Chimera Rhinoplasty offers longer-lasting effects and appears more natural, and it is less likely to cause capsular contracture. With minimally invasive rhinoplasty using fillers, the filler substances are metabolized and absorbed over time, and repeated injections can cause the nasal bridge to widen and the tip to enlarge due to capsular contracture.

Most incisions are hidden in inconspicuous areas, and since the surgical cuts are small, they're generally not visible. Scars will gradually fade over six months. During this time, minimizing stretching of the incision and avoiding sun exposure can effectively reduce scar formation.
