Crooked nose, dorsal hump, and short nose: structural analysis and correction methods

A nose deviated to the right, accompanied by a dorsal hump, an upturned nasal tip, and nasal obstruction, was corrected through closed septoplasty, submucosal resection of the inferior turbinates, and septal extension.

Reconstruction method for an upturned and crooked nose after repeated surgeries

Following multiple rhinoplasties, the patient presented with an upturned nasal tip, septal damage, protruding columellar cartilage, and nasal obstruction. Tip reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage, septoplasty, and submucosal resection of the inferior turbinate were performed through a closed approach.

Correcting asymmetry and function in a small, upturned nose with thin skin

This is a revision case involving thin skin, an upturned nose, and nostril asymmetry following a prior surgery. The septum was reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, combined with artificial dermis reinforcement, alar rim elongation, and septoplasty.

Rhinoplasty methods for improving dorsal hump and nasal obstruction

A case of correcting a long dorsal hump, crooked nose, and nasal obstruction without an implant. Through a closed approach, the bone was refined, lateral osteotomy was performed, and septoplasty along with bridge augmentation using diced cartilage was carried out.

How to correct a long nose and wide nose

This is a case where a long, wide nose and drooping tip were naturally improved. Lateral osteotomy was performed using a closed approach, and septal extension and lower lateral cartilage suturing were carried out using donor rib cartilage and septal cartilage.

How to correct a pinched nose and nostril asymmetry

A case correcting pinched alae, an upturned nose, and nostril asymmetry following previous surgeries. Using a closed approach, septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage, lower lateral cartilage reconstruction, alar rim grafting (lowering the alar rim), and dermis grafting were performed.

How to correct a bulbous and short nose without implants

To improve a short, upturned nasal tip, a bulbous nose, and a dorsal hump, implant-free rhinoplasty was performed. Using a closed approach, autologous rib cartilage septal extension, lower lateral cartilage repositioning, and septal correction were carried out.

Revision rhinoplasty for nostril asymmetry and a flared nose — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Revision rhinoplasty for nostril asymmetry and a flared nose

Following a history of double-jaw surgery and rhinoplasty, the anterior nasal spine had been resected, resulting in nostril asymmetry and nasal obstruction. The septum and lower lateral cartilages were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, along with silicone implant exchange and nasal sill reduction.

Surgical approach for nasal obstruction, a drooping tip, and lowering the columella — Before-and-after comparison
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.

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.

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.

How to lower a high radix

In a patient presenting with an excessively high radix, a drooping tip, and nasal obstruction, a closed approach was used to lower the starting point, reconstruct the nasal tip using autologous rib cartilage, and perform septoplasty.

Methods for correcting a dorsal hump and crooked nose

This is a case of nasal bone deformity, a dorsal hump, and right-sided nasal obstruction following closed reduction for a nasal bone fracture. After confirming depression of the right nasal bone on CT, osteotomy and septal reconstruction were planned, and the changes in nasal shape after surgery were documented.

How to correct a dorsal hump and crooked nose

This is a case of a dorsal hump with a large skeletal framework and a high radix, accompanied by nasal deviation and a drooping tip. Considering facial proportions, the surgery was completed without implants, and changes in the dorsal hump, columella, and tip shape were documented.

How to correct nasal obstruction and a wide, spread-out nose

This is a case where mucosal adhesion, septal deviation, and tip deformity were identified following previous surgeries. We planned support reinforcement using autologous rib cartilage along with functional surgery, and recorded the postoperative changes in columellar and nostril asymmetry.
