A staged correction method for a severely upturned contracted nose — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

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.

Surgical approach for a collapsed nose caused by septal cartilage damage — Before-and-after comparison
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.

Contracted nose reconstruction method for the nasal bridge and nasal tip using autologous rib cartilage — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Contracted nose reconstruction method for the nasal bridge and nasal tip using autologous rib cartilage

This is a case of a contracted nose following total removal of materials due to acute inflammation after a previous surgery. After stem cell injection therapy, the damaged septum and lower lateral cartilage were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, and adhesiolysis was planned to address nasal obstruction.

Surgical approach to reconstructing a contracted nose after severe inflammation and partial skin necrosis of the nasal tip — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Surgical approach to reconstructing a contracted nose after severe inflammation and partial skin necrosis of the nasal tip

This is a case of recurrent inflammation leading to partial skin necrosis, a depressed scar, and contracture deformity of the nasal tip. After stem cell therapy, revision surgery was performed with a surgical plan including septal reconstruction, lowering the nostril rims, and dermal grafting.

Before-and-after comparison

Reconstruction methods for a nose contracted after multiple surgeries

In a severe contracted nose that developed after a history of 27 surgeries and fat graft procedures, the protruding silicone implant and degenerated tissue were removed, and the septum and structural support were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage.

How to reconstruct a columella retracted by contracture

Loss of the septum and retraction of the columella caused by inflammation and contracture were restored with three-dimensional definition through total autologous rib cartilage reconstruction and lowering the columella.

Correction methods for a contracted nose and red nasal tip — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Correction methods for a contracted nose and red nasal tip

This is a case where the silicone implant had been removed after repeated surgeries led to tip redness and contracture deformity. Autologous rib cartilage and stem cell therapy were planned, and changes in tip depression, upturning, and nasolabial angle immediately after surgery were documented.

How to correct shape in a second surgery for a contracted nose

This is a case of a second surgery addressing a drooping tip and columellar scarring after reconstructing a contracted nose with autologous rib cartilage. We planned nasal tip reinforcement and a skin graft, and recorded changes in the position of the columella and the skin graft site after surgery.

How to correct an upturned contracted nose with autologous rib cartilage

In a patient presenting with contracture, an upturned nose, and loss of lower lateral cartilages due to inflammation after previous surgery, we performed septal and alar cartilage reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage combined with stem cell therapy and alar rim lowering.

Nasal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage for an upturned and crooked (deviated) nose due to contracture

This is a case where postoperative inflammation led to a depressed and upturned nasal tip along with severe nostril asymmetry. I introduce the reconstruction plan using autologous rib cartilage according to the extent of cartilage damage, along with comparison photos taken immediately after surgery.

Autologous rib cartilage revision rhinoplasty and nostril correction for an upturned and crooked nose

A case involving nostril asymmetry and excessive nostril show after previous implant removal due to inflammation. Depending on the cartilage condition, autologous rib cartilage reconstruction, lateral osteotomy, and nostril rim extension were planned, documented with photos taken immediately after surgery.

Revision rhinoplasty using autologous rib cartilage for an upturned nose from contracture and nostril asymmetry

A case presenting with a short, upturned nasal tip and nostril asymmetry following a history of silicone implant inflammation. The damaged lower lateral cartilage and septum were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, and replacement of the Gore-Tex implant was included in the surgical plan.

Methods for correcting a contracted nose, crooked nose, and drooping tip using autologous rib cartilage

This is a revision rhinoplasty case of a patient who presented with an upturned nose and a drooping tip. The damaged lower lateral cartilages and septum were partially reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, septal extension was performed to lower the nasal tip, and nostril lowering was included in the plan.
