Why the nose becomes upturned and shortened after illegal injection procedures, and how foreign body removal and reconstruction are performed — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why the nose becomes upturned and shortened after illegal injection procedures, and how foreign body removal and reconstruction are performed

A case where purulent foreign material injected into the nasal bridge during an illegal procedure was removed, contracted skin was released, and an upturned nasal tip and bridge line were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage and a silicone implant.

Preoperative condition

Why replacing a cartilage nasal tip with an L-shaped silicone implant causes problems — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why replacing a cartilage nasal tip with an L-shaped silicone implant causes problems

A case where a previously replaced L-shaped silicone implant was removed, the nasal tip was reconstructed with autologous rib cartilage, and the nasal bridge was replaced with an I-shaped implant to correct an upturned nose and a tilted columella.

Preoperative condition

Chronic foreign body reaction causing a blunt, widened nasal bridge: causes and reconstruction methods — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Chronic foreign body reaction causing a blunt, widened nasal bridge: causes and reconstruction methods

This is a revision rhinoplasty case in which a septum damaged from prior double jaw surgery and a chronic foreign body reaction in the nasal bridge were identified, followed by irrigation, capsule removal, and septal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage.

Preoperative condition

Why cleft lip and palate revision rhinoplasty is challenging and methods for rib cartilage reconstruction — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why cleft lip and palate revision rhinoplasty is challenging and methods for rib cartilage reconstruction

To improve a wide nose and drooping tip in a patient with a history of cleft lip and palate surgery, autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction, nasal tip elevation, nasal sill reduction, and inferior turbinate surgery were performed.

Preoperative condition

Why the nasal bridge sinks and widens after implant removal, and how to reconstruct it — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why the nasal bridge sinks and widens after implant removal, and how to reconstruct it

Depression and widening of the nasal bridge, along with a crooked nose and bulbous tip that developed after implant removal, were refined through structural nasal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage, nasal bridge augmentation with a silicone implant, tip refinement, and correction of the nasolabial angle.

Previous surgeries and procedures

Why the nasal dorsum appears depressed and the tip looks bulbous after dorsal hump reduction, and how to correct it without implants — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why the nasal dorsum appears depressed and the tip looks bulbous after dorsal hump reduction, and how to correct it without implants

To improve a bulbous nasal tip, residual hump sensation, and asymmetry without silicone implants, autologous rib cartilage was used to elevate the nasal bridge and dorsal line, combined with cartilage repositioning, cartilage binding, and nasolabial angle correction.

Preoperative condition

Why nasal bridge and tip show-through happens after old silicone rhinoplasty: dermal reinforcement and rib cartilage reconstruction — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why nasal bridge and tip show-through happens after old silicone rhinoplasty: dermal reinforcement and rib cartilage reconstruction

To resolve show-through of an L-shaped silicone implant and cartilage beneath thinned skin, we removed the previous silicone implant, reinforced the skin with dermis, adjusted the tip height, reconstructed the nasal tip with autologous rib cartilage, and replaced the implant with a new one.

Preoperative condition

Why a crooked nose and irregular dorsum occur: implant removal and reconstruction methods — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why a crooked nose and irregular dorsum occur: implant removal and reconstruction methods

We removed the premaxillary ("cat") implant and irregularly placed ear cartilage from previous surgeries, then refined the crooked nose and radix line using a dermal graft, lateral osteotomy, and autologous rib cartilage septal extension.

Previous surgeries and procedures

Why old silicone implants cause deformity and pain, and how rib cartilage reconstruction is performed — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why old silicone implants cause deformity and pain, and how rib cartilage reconstruction is performed

For nasal deformity, dorsal pain, and nasal obstruction caused by an old implant, septoplasty and autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction were performed to improve the columella and nostrils.

Previous surgeries and procedures

Why nostril asymmetry and an upturned nose occur together, and how rib cartilage reconstruction works — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why nostril asymmetry and an upturned nose occur together, and how rib cartilage reconstruction works

A case correcting nostril asymmetry, columellar deviation, and an upturned nose following a previous surgery using lateral osteotomy and autologous rib cartilage septal extension, alongside functional improvement.

When a silicone implant is about to push through the nasal tip skin: why it happens and how to reconstruct it — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

When a silicone implant is about to push through the nasal tip skin: why it happens and how to reconstruct it

In an urgent condition where the silicone implant was on the verge of extruding just beneath the nasal tip skin, the implant was removed, and nasal tip reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage and dermal graft reinforcement was performed.

Preoperative condition

Why a previously operated nose can look crooked and develop a drooping tip — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why a previously operated nose can look crooked and develop a drooping tip

To address a crooked nose, a drooping tip, and residual nasal filler, we removed the previous filler and performed lateral osteotomy and nasal tip correction using autologous rib cartilage.

Preoperative condition

Why repeat rhinoplasty thins the nasal tip skin causing cartilage show-through, and how autologous dermis reinforcement helps — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why repeat rhinoplasty thins the nasal tip skin causing cartilage show-through, and how autologous dermis reinforcement helps

To resolve thinned nasal tip skin and cartilage show-through caused by repeated surgeries, retroauricular autologous dermis grafting, lateral osteotomy, and columellar elevation were performed.
