NOSE CLINIC

What Is Nasal Bone Fracture?
Nasal bone fractures commonly result from external impact — trauma, traffic accidents, and similar injuries.
While the bones may be reset early on, they often heal unevenly,
meaning fracture repair and rhinoplasty are frequently performed together.
Symptoms of Nasal Bone Fracture After Injury

Severe Pain
Touching the fracture site after injury
causes severe pain.

Nosebleed
The impact causes nosebleeds after the accident.

Nasal Deformity
The nose may collapse or deviate
as a result of the impact.

Swelling and Bruising
Swelling and bruising develop and worsen over time.
Missing the treatment window can result in
permanent structural deformity of the nose.

Baroko Nasal Bone Fracture ONE DAY
Same-Day Examination
Advanced 3D-CT used at university hospitals precisely diagnoses
the fracture site and direction, regardless of swelling.
Same-Day Surgery
Fractured bones are reset and reconstructed via nasal bone reduction; deviated septum correction or rhinoplasty is performed simultaneously as planned.
Same-Day Discharge
Discharge is available immediately after surgery, and normal daily activities may resume.
Treatment Method
Treatment Timing
Treatment Duration
If the fracture consolidates
Standard Treatment Course
Wait until swelling subsides
Minimum 14–20 days
Re-fracture then realign
ONE DAY Nasal Bone Fracture Reduction
Examination, surgery, and discharge on the same day

BAROKO ONE DAY
Nasal bone fracture,
nasal obstruction,
and shape deformity —
resolved simultaneously!
When the nasal bone fractures,
the septum often deviates at the same time,
leading to nasal obstruction and shape deformity.
Nasal Exterior
Fractured nasal bone correction
Nasal Interior
Septum / nasal valve correction
Nasal Shape
Deformed shape correction
Surgical Method
Nasal Bone Reduction
Simple Fracture — bone only broken
Open Reduction
An incision is made in the skin to directly visualize the nasal interior and realign the fractured nasal bones.
Complex Fracture — nasal bone broken into multiple fragments or with shape deformity
Open Reduction
An incision is made in the skin to directly visualize the nasal interior and realign the fractured nasal bones.
Functional Surgery
Deviated Nasal Septum + Pathology Correction
STEP 01
The septum deviates and swollen inferior turbinates
produce symptoms of deviated nasal septum.
STEP 02
Nasal conditions are treated while
deviated septum correction is performed simultaneously.
Rhinoplasty — performed when required
STEP 01
When needed, dorsal augmentation and tip refinement
are performed together.
STEP 02
Autologous cartilage is used to create
a refined, smooth nasal contour.
Aesthetic Rhinoplasty
Preventing Shape Deformity
Cartilage-particle injection
Nasal bone reduction alone may lead to shape changes; therefore, we recommend the cartilage-particle injection
("Yeonipko") — made from minced autologous cartilage — for faster surgical time and quicker daily recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions About Nasal Bone Fracture
Nasal bone fractures commonly occur from trauma, traffic accidents, and similar external impacts. While the bones may be reset initially, they often heal unevenly. Missing the treatment window can lead to structural deformity of the nose. Standard treatment requires waiting at least 14–20 days for swelling to subside; at Baroko, our ONE DAY reduction technique allows same-day examination, surgery, and discharge.
When the nasal bone fractures, the septum typically deviates at the same time, potentially causing nasal obstruction and shape deformity. Baroko addresses fracture correction (exterior), septal and nasal valve correction (interior), and shape deformity correction together.
3D-CT is used to diagnose the fracture site and direction. Nasal bone reduction (closed for simple fractures; open for complex ones) realigns the bone, with concurrent septal correction or rhinoplasty as needed. Surgery takes within 2 hours under local or IV sedation anesthesia; recovery is 1–2 weeks (individual results may vary). Applicable nasal conditions may qualify for private medical indemnity insurance.
