Augmentation Rhinoplasty in Thrissur

A crooked nose is not only an aesthetic concern but often a functional one that affects breathing, sleep quality, and overall confidence. In cases where nasal deviation is severe, traditional septoplasty or standard rhinoplasty techniques may not provide adequate correction. Extracorporeal Septo Rhinoplasty is an advanced surgical procedure designed specifically to address complex and severe nasal deformities.

Under the expertise of Dr. Jyoshid R. Balan, this specialized technique delivers reliable correction for crooked noses while restoring proper nasal airflow and long-term structural stability.

According to Dr. Jyoshid R. Balan, nose exercises can be supportive but should not be mistaken for medical rhinoplasty or non-surgical treatments.

What Is Augmentation Rhinoplasty?

Augmentation rhinoplasty is a surgical technique used to enhance nasal features by adding structure. It is ideal for individuals with:

  • Flat or under-projected nasal bridge
  • Weak nasal tip
  • Ethnic nasal features lacking definition
  • Nasal imbalance affecting facial harmony

The surgeon strategically adds material — most commonly cartilage grafts from the patient — to support and elevate the nasal bridge and refine the nasal tip. The result is a natural, proportionate nose that fits the patient’s unique facial anatomy.

How Augmentation Rhinoplasty Works

Comprehensive Consultation

Every rhinoplasty journey begins with a detailed consultation where Dr. Balan:

  • Evaluates nasal anatomy and facial proportions
  • Discusses goals, expectations, and possible outcomes
  • Reviews breathing function and overall nasal structure

Diagnostic tools like clinical photos, nasal endoscopy, and 3D imaging help create a precise surgical plan.

  1. Surgical Procedure

Augmentation rhinoplasty is usually performed under general anesthesia. The surgery generally uses an open rhinoplasty approach for better visualization and precise graft placement.

Materials used for augmentation can include:

  • Autologous cartilage grafts (from septum, ear, or rib) — considered the gold standard for safety and integration
  • Occasionally, carefully selected implants may be used based on specific needs

These grafts are sculpted and fixed to elevate the bridge, strengthen support, and refine the nasal silhouette.

  1. Closing and Support

Once the desired structure is achieved, internal sutures and external splints support the nose during initial healing. Nasal packing may also be used to protect grafts and stabilize internal tissues.
