How to plan nasal filler removal and nasal obstruction correction

This is a case of a patient who visited our clinic presenting with a blunt, widened nose and intermittent nasal obstruction after nasal filler treatment. Filler removal and nasal tip correction using autologous rib cartilage were performed, and functional surgery for the septum and inferior turbinates was planned.

Revision rhinoplasty approach addressing nostril stenosis, crooked nose, and nasal obstruction together

Left nostril stenosis and nasal obstruction that developed after repeated surgeries were improved through scar tissue removal, skin grafting, Z-plasty, and septal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage.

Rhinoplasty approach considering proportion and height for a small nose

This is a case of a male patient concerned with a small, short nose, a bulbous tip, and nasal obstruction. After checking the condition of the septal cartilage intraoperatively, autologous rib cartilage was used to shape the nasal tip, while a silicone implant and septal and inferior turbinate surgery were included in the surgical plan.
