Deviated nose surgery in Seoul, Korea
Deviated nose surgery in Gangnam, Seoul at Marble Plastic Surgery: straighten a crooked nose and correct the septum to improve breathing.
Typical ranges for deviated nose surgery; your surgeon confirms the details at consultation.
What is deviated nose surgery?
Deviated nose surgery straightens a crooked nose and corrects the deviated septum inside it, improving both appearance and breathing. At Marble Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, Seoul, functional rhinoplasty is planned with 3D-CT and performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon.
A nose can be bent in the bones, the cartilage or both, and the septum is almost always involved. Straightening the outside without correcting the septum leads to recurrence, so septoplasty, osteotomy and cartilage grafting are combined as needed.
Who is deviated nose surgery for?
Suitability is decided at a 1:1 consultation with your surgeon.
- A nose that curves to one side or has an S or C shape
- Chronic nasal blockage on one or both sides
- A crooked nose after injury
- Asymmetry noticeable in photos
How deviated nose surgery is performed at Marble
- Consultation and planning Your surgeon examines the airway and septum, reviews 3D-CT to see where the deviation lies, and plans functional and cosmetic correction together.
- Anesthesia and monitoring A board-certified anesthesiologist selects the anesthesia with your surgeon, administers it, and monitors you continuously throughout the procedure.
- Straightening septum and bones The septum is straightened and reinforced, the nasal bones are repositioned with osteotomies, and spreader grafts keep the middle of the nose straight and open.
- Recovery and discharge You rest in a private recovery room under monitoring. Before you leave, the team explains wound care, medication and your follow-up schedule.
Recovery and aftercare
Most patients go home the same day. A splint is usually worn for about a week, and visible swelling settles over roughly two weeks, with the tip continuing to refine for months. Aftercare visits are scheduled on days 2, 7 and 14.
- Swelling injection on day 2
- Regenerative laser on days 7 and 14
- 1:1 progress checks with your surgeon
- Unlimited scar care

Frequently asked questions
Does deviated nose surgery improve breathing?
When a deviated septum or narrow valve is the cause of obstruction, correcting it usually improves airflow.
Can a crooked nose become perfectly straight?
Marked improvement is typical. Cartilage has memory and faces are asymmetric, so a small residual deviation is possible.
Is septoplasty the same as rhinoplasty?
Septoplasty corrects the internal septum for breathing. Rhinoplasty changes the external shape. Deviated nose surgery combines both.
Who will perform my procedure at Marble Plastic Surgery?
