How to reconstruct a nose with weakened septal cartilage without implants

A case where a septum weakened by excessive harvest was reinforced with autologous rib cartilage, and the nasal structure was reconstructed without artificial implants using lateral osteotomy along with diced cartilage and dermis grafts.

Nasal bridge depression and nostril asymmetry after multiple rhinoplasties: causes and reconstruction methods

A case where nasal bridge depression caused by skin necrosis and severe septal damage were improved with septal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage, cartilage and acellular dermal matrix grafts, and submucosal resection of the inferior turbinate.

Why nostrils appear triangular in an upturned nose, and how to correct nostril shape

To address an upturned nose, excessive nostril show, and a high radix resulting from multiple rhinoplasty procedures over an extended period, nostril-lowering surgery with composite cartilage and skin grafting was performed alongside functional nasal surgery.

Why the nose deviates and the nasal tip turns bulbous after two-jaw surgery, and how to create a dorsal hump line with autologous rib cartilage

A case where a septum damaged after two-jaw surgery was reconstructed with autologous rib cartilage, combined with lateral osteotomy and columella lowering, improving a crooked nose and bulbous tip.

Before-and-after comparison

Why the nose looks spread after nose filler without dissolving it, and how to create a slim line

For a nasal bridge that became wide and crooked after filler injections, accompanied by a dorsal hump and bulbous tip, a combined procedure was performed consisting of lateral osteotomy, tip elevation using autologous rib cartilage, hump rasping, nasal sill reduction, and rhinitis surgery.

Before-and-after comparison

Why a wide nasal bridge and upturned nasal tip develop, and how rib cartilage reconstruction is performed

For a wide nasal bridge and an upturned nasal tip resulting from repeated surgeries and nasal bridge thread-lifting procedures, foreign material was removed, lateral osteotomy was performed, and septal reconstruction was carried out by recycling existing autologous rib cartilage and supplementing with donor rib cartilage.

Why a wide nose often comes with nasal obstruction: Correction using osteotomy and autologous rib cartilage

For a wide nose, bulbous tip, crooked nose, and deviated septum, lateral osteotomy, autologous rib cartilage septal extension, bridge augmentation, septal and inferior turbinate surgery, and autologous fat grafting were performed.

Why the nose turns up, the columella retracts, and the tip looks pinched: how composite correction is performed

For an upturned nose, retracted columella, pinched tip, and nostril asymmetry following repeated surgeries, columellar reconstruction, pinched tip correction, septoplasty, and submucosal resection of the inferior turbinate were performed.

Why the nasal tip looks spread out and lacks dimension, and how bulbous nose correction is performed

To improve a wide nasal bridge, a blunt nasal tip, nostril asymmetry, and nasal obstruction, partial removal of subcutaneous tissue, lower lateral cartilage repositioning, cartilage suturing, and nasal tip height adjustment were performed in stages.

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.

Why bulbous nose, nostril asymmetry, and nasal obstruction occur together, and how straight bridge line correction is performed

A case where a blunt, wide nasal tip, a columella tilted to the right, and nasal obstruction were refined into a natural straight bridge line through bulbous tip correction, nasolabial angle improvement, and septoplasty.

Before-and-after comparison

Why rhinitis symptoms recur after surgery, and how to correct a crooked nose at the same time

Following prior surgery for rhinitis and a deviated septum, the patient experienced a recurrence of symptoms along with nasal deviation and nostril asymmetry, which were improved through autologous rib cartilage septal extension, lateral osteotomy, and mucosal synechia adhesiolysis.
