Rhinoplasty and chin augmentation considering facial proportions

For a bulbous nasal tip, retracted columella, and a receding chin, septal extension using septal cartilage and donor rib cartilage was combined with a chin implant to refine the facial profile.

Nasal correction considering philtrum length and alar asymmetry

For an elongated-looking philtrum and asymmetrical alae, filler was removed, followed by septal extension using autologous rib cartilage, nasal sill reduction, and septal and rhinitis surgery.

Correction approach considering height and proportions for a small nose

For a small, upturned nose with a wide tip, foreign material from nasal bridge filler was removed, followed by lateral osteotomy, silicone implant placement, lowering the columella, and nasolabial angle correction.

Nasal structure of an artificial-looking nose after surgery and reconstruction methods

For a high radix, upturned tip, and nasal obstruction caused by septal deviation, donor rib cartilage extension, tip cartilage repositioning, and inferior turbinate resection were performed.

Correction approach considering both a large nose and facial proportions

For a large nose with a dorsal hump and a drooping tip, harmony was achieved through lateral osteotomy, nasal tip correction using autologous rib cartilage, nasal sill reduction, and autologous facial fat grafting.

Examining the causes of a contracted nose and methods for reconstruction

For a contracted nose and septal damage following repeated surgeries and implant removal, we reconstructed the septum using autologous rib cartilage while correcting the upturned tip and rhinitis.

Remaining structures and reconstruction methods after alar reduction

Nostril asymmetry, a bulbous nasal tip, and nasal obstruction caused by excessive alar reduction were improved by combining autologous rib cartilage septal extension, alar reconstruction, and rhinitis surgery.

How to remove embedded lifting threads from the nose and reconstruct the nasal structure

After completely removing 20 to 30 remaining threads inserted during oriental clinic thread-lifting procedures, the nasal line was improved by combining nasal tip correction using septal cartilage and donor rib cartilage with rhinitis surgery.

Reconstruction methods for an upturned nose and damaged support structures — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Reconstruction methods for an upturned nose and damaged support structures

An upturned nose accompanied by loss of the septum and damage to the lower lateral cartilages from excessive cartilage harvesting was restored through septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage and alar cartilage reconstruction using the previous ear cartilage.

How to correct a short nose and nasal obstruction together

A short, upturned nose accompanied by nasal obstruction and a decreased sense of smell was corrected using a combination of septal extension with autologous rib cartilage, septoplasty for a deviated septum, lateral osteotomy, and submucosal resection of the inferior turbinates.

Upturned nose and nasal obstruction: how to reconstruct structural support with rib cartilage

For an upturned nose and severe nasal obstruction caused by septal cartilage loss following silicone implant removal, we performed total septal reconstruction using rib cartilage, nostril lowering, and internal nasal valve reconstruction.

How to correct a crooked nose, nasal obstruction, and nasal tip structure together

A damaged septum, crooked nose, and nasal obstruction from previous surgery were corrected structurally and functionally using autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction, septal extension grafting, and rhinitis surgery.

Correcting a low nasal bridge and nasal obstruction together

A low, flat nasal bridge, a bulbous tip, and nasal obstruction caused by a deviated septum were improved through rhinoplasty using septal cartilage and ear cartilage, alongside inferior turbinate reduction.

How to replace absorbed donor rib cartilage with autologous rib cartilage

For a patient whose nose became crooked and drooped due to partial resorption of previously placed donor rib cartilage, we removed the absorbed cartilage and performed septal reconstruction and deviated septum correction using autologous rib cartilage.

Before-and-after comparison

How the septum is reconstructed in revision rhinoplasty

In a patient presenting with septal damage, a crooked nose, and breathing difficulties following two-jaw surgery and filler procedures, residual filler was removed, autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction was performed, and rhinitis surgery was carried out.

Correction methods for bulbous and crooked noses through structural analysis

Correction of a crooked nose and bulbous tip following fracture reduction and multiple prior rhinoplasties using autologous rib cartilage septal extension, lateral osteotomy, nasal sill reduction, and nasolabial angle correction.

Before-and-after comparison

How to correct a contracted nose and inflammation caused by residual foreign material

Contracture and septal defect developed due to residual mesh and a foreign body reaction from previous surgeries. We removed the remaining foreign material, reconstructed the septum using autologous rib cartilage, and performed a skin graft to the columella.

How to plan lowering the columella and nasolabial angle correction together

A case correcting an upturned nasal tip, retracted columella, and nostril show using autologous rib cartilage nasal reconstruction, columellar lowering, nasolabial angle correction, septal surgery, and inferior turbinate surgery.
