Rhinoplasty method after foreign material (mesh and thread) removal

A case of a patient who presented with a crooked nasal bridge, dorsal hump, and high radix after previous surgery using mesh and threads. Through a closed approach, the foreign materials were removed, and lateral osteotomy along with autologous rib cartilage reconstruction of the nasal tip and bridge was performed.

Anatomy and correction methods for a blunt bulbous nose

In a case where nasal tip depression and a blunt bulbous nose occurred following past filler and injection procedures, remaining filler was removed, and lateral osteotomy, septal extension using donor rib cartilage, and silicone implant placement were performed through a closed approach.

How to correct a crooked nose and a bulbous, drooping nasal tip

A crooked nose with a drooping, bulbous tip and a high radix following multiple surgeries was corrected using autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction and extension, radix lowering, and rhinitis surgery.

Before-and-after comparison

Surgical approach for nasal obstruction, a drooping tip, and lowering the columella

Right-sided nasal obstruction, a drooping nasal tip, and a retracted columella following two previous surgeries were addressed using autologous rib cartilage septal extension, implant replacement, and mucosal adhesiolysis.

Revision rhinoplasty approach for a long nose and high radix after repeated surgeries

A long nose, high radix, and columellar depression that developed after multiple prior surgeries were corrected by removing previous foreign material, reconstructing the septum with donor rib cartilage, and carving a silicone implant.

Correction methods for a bulbous, deviated, and upturned nose

A high radix, bulbous nose, deviated nose, and upturned nose were corrected via a closed approach using autologous rib cartilage septal extension, septoplasty, lowering of the radix, and nasolabial angle adjustment.

Revision rhinoplasty methods for correcting a short, upturned nose

Nasal obstruction, a pinched look, and an upturned nose that developed after ear cartilage suturing and filler injection were corrected with foreign material removal, autologous rib cartilage septal extension, and cartilage repositioning.

A staged correction method for a severely upturned contracted nose

After total removal of implants due to inflammation left a severely upturned contracted nose, the septum and lower lateral cartilage were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage and the skin was stretched via a closed approach.

Revision rhinoplasty methods for alar and nostril asymmetry

Alar and nostril asymmetry and tip drooping after three prior surgeries were corrected via a closed approach using autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction, septal extension, and septoplasty.

Bulbous nose correction and lowering the columella — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Bulbous nose correction and lowering the columella

To improve a retracted columella and a bulbous nose resulting from past alar reduction, filler on the nasal bridge was removed, and autologous rib cartilage was used for septal extension, lowering the columella, and nasolabial angle correction.

Rhinoplasty methods following foreign material removal

Through a closed approach, complex filler and thread foreign materials accumulated over a prolonged period were removed, and the nasal structure was corrected using autologous rib cartilage for tip reconstruction, lateral osteotomy, and lowering the columella.

Methods for correcting a bulbous and wide nose

A wide nasal tip, wide nasal bones, and nasal obstruction caused by internal nasal valve stenosis were improved together using closed lateral osteotomy, partial resection of subcutaneous tissue, and septal cartilage reinforcement.

Custom rhinoplasty method for replacing an unnatural silicone implant

With an unnatural implant outline and a crooked nose, the existing implant was removed and replaced with a wider implant, while autologous rib cartilage was used to lower the columella alongside osteotomy.

Revision rhinoplasty for silicone implant side effects and a wide nose

The existing silicone implant extending to the nasal tip was removed, the thinned tip skin was reinforced, and the profile was improved into a masculine straight line through autologous rib cartilage reconstruction and dorsal silicone replacement.

Support structures and correction methods for a drooping nasal tip

Through a closed approach, a drooping tip, bulbous nose, and dorsal hump were refined into smooth lines using autologous rib cartilage tip plasty and silicone implant placement.

Before-and-after comparison

Surgical approach for a collapsed nose caused by septal cartilage damage

In a nose where most of the septum and alar cartilages were lost after two previous surgeries, we reconstructed the overall framework using autologous rib cartilage, removed contracture tissue, and corrected the nasolabial angle.

Removal of calcium filler injected into the nose and reconstruction methods

Calcium filler causing a widened glabella was thoroughly removed using a closed approach, and the low nose was given three-dimensional correction through autologous rib cartilage septal extension and silicone implant placement.

How to correct right-sided nasal obstruction, a bulbous tip, and an upturned nose

To resolve an upturned nose, bulbous nasal tip, and right-sided nasal obstruction, we performed septal extension, lateral osteotomy, silicone implant placement, septoplasty, and turbinate reduction.
