Balance Restored Through Precise Crooked Nose Correction: A Real Transformation Case from Kowon Plastic Surgery
Dr. Kim Hyung-taek of Kowon Plastic Surgery shares a crooked nose correction case in which a bridge skewed to one side was realigned, the tip refined, and a deviated septum corrected.


Hello, this is Dr. Kim Hyung-taek of Kowon Plastic Surgery. This case involved a nose bridge that appeared skewed to one side with a broadly spread overall shape, which made the frontal asymmetry and heavy, blunt look especially prominent.
In a case like this, simply raising the bridge or tightening the nasal tip is not enough. The key is crooked nose correction, which realigns the overall axis and restores balance.
The broad, heavy-looking nasal tip was refined by neatly trimming unnecessary soft tissue, then gathering and suturing the cartilage together and firmly supporting it with sturdy cartilage struts.
Alongside this, crooked nose correction was performed to meticulously realign the off-center asymmetry, completing a line that holds steady whether viewed from the front or the side.

Our focus was on harmoniously adjusting the volume and left-right balance of the nasal tip and aligning the lines with the midline of the face.
"The nose is not merely a feature to be raised. Its value only comes to life when the overall central axis and angles come together perfectly."
I still clearly remember the care I took in fine-tuning the columella, the nasolabial angle, and the flow of the philtrum line that follows, so that everything settled stably at the center.
On top of that, this patient had previously undergone a thread-based procedure, so we had to safely remove the residual threads inside and perform revision surgery at Kowon Plastic Surgery at the same time.
[Related Case for Reference]
This case involved a nose whose central axis was misaligned, making the bridge appear bent to one side, and a deviated septum was also present. It showed both functional discomfort and aesthetic asymmetry.

To correct this, we intensively performed structural correction to straighten the deviated septum inside, along with crooked nose correction to properly align the center of the nasal bridge.

The result: the crooked bridge line and overall left-right balance were neatly restored, and both outward beauty and functional comfort were reliably recovered at Kowon Plastic Surgery.
Through meticulous crooked nose correction, this case transformed into an ideal three-dimensional profile with no irregularities from either the front or the side.
[A Word from Dr. Kim]
Asymmetry and misaligned structures cannot be resolved by simply fixing the outward appearance. Only by accurately identifying the root cause inside can a truly satisfying result be achieved.

We always do our best to help patients regain not only aesthetic perfection but also stable function through precise crooked nose correction.
"Post-surgery changes are my pride and the trust you place in me, so I will continue to show only results of the highest quality."
Going forward, I will continue to show the depth of difference that sets Kowon Plastic Surgery apart, built on meticulous care and honest expertise.

Frequently Asked Questions
What parts of the nose does crooked nose correction address?
Crooked nose correction is a procedure that restores balance by properly aligning the nose's overall central axis and angles. Dr. Kim explained that simply raising the bridge or tightening only the tip is not enough.
How is nasal tip volume adjusted?
In this case, unnecessary soft tissue was trimmed, the cartilage was gathered and sutured, and then supported with cartilage struts to adjust the nasal tip volume and left-right balance. Dr. Kim also explained that the team focused on aligning the lines with the facial midline.
What if I have had a thread procedure in the past?
In this case, the patient had a prior thread procedure, so the residual threads inside were safely removed and revision surgery was performed at the same time. Dr. Kim stressed the importance of accurately identifying the underlying cause inside.
Can asymmetry be fixed by only addressing the outward appearance?
No. Asymmetry or a misaligned structure cannot be resolved by only fixing the surface. Dr. Kim said that accurately identifying the root cause inside is essential to achieve a satisfying result.
Where is Kowon Plastic Surgery located?
Kowon Plastic Surgery Clinic is located on the 2nd floor of KBL Center, 110 Dosan-daero, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. This article is a crooked nose correction case personally introduced by Dr. Kim Hyung-taek of Kowon Plastic Surgery.
What if a deviated septum is also present?
In the reference case, a deviated septum was also present, so structural correction to straighten the internal septum was performed together with crooked nose correction. That case is described as one that presented both functional discomfort and aesthetic asymmetry.
