There are many factors that can cause breathing difficulties as a complication post-rhinoplasty, these include technical issues during the operation. Technical issues during rhinoplasties include malcorrection of the septum and not giving enough attention to many discrete and minute anatomical landmarks of the nose, including the nasal valve, soft triangle, nostrils and wings of the nostrils (alae nasi).
Dr. Goran has invented a new technique to correct and prevent complications of the soft triangles and nasal valves, besides these, the technique also helps with correcting the shape of the nostril during the operation. Therefor leading to no breathing difficculties as a postoperative complication and better overall satisfaction.

Although not fully known throughout patients, rhinoplasty has many types. These types depend on the type of the nose. However, all of these types should end up with a natural-looking nose, which depends on the many angles on ones face that can give the exact proportions of what that persons nose should like. In the picture here, it can be seen that the patient has a crooked nose, meaning that the nose hasn’t followed a straight line down the face. Therefore, the type of rhinoplasty would have to be tailored to that crooked nose, which is what Dr. Goran performed here.
