How tip structure and nostril show are addressed in primary rhinoplasty

To achieve a natural nasal contour and reduce nostril show, dorsal augmentation with a silicone implant, tip correction using donor rib cartilage and septal cartilage, and adjustment of the nasolabial angle were performed.

How to balance the nasal bridge and tip when a dorsal hump and drooping tip coexist

A dorsal hump, drooping tip, and rhinitis-related nasal obstruction were addressed by resecting the hump, combining autologous rib cartilage and a silicone implant, and performing nasolabial angle and septal correction.

Why inflammation recurs after rhinoplasty and how to reconstruct using only autologous tissue

Persistent tip inflammation, deviation, and nasal symptoms following repeated surgeries were resolved by removing previous foreign materials and performing septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage alongside functional nasal surgery.

Why the nose looks wide and the tip droops after double jaw surgery, and how to reconstruct it with rib cartilage

After double jaw surgery and rhinoplasty, a wide-looking nose and drooping tip were improved by removing the previous materials, reconstructing the septum with autologous rib cartilage, and performing nasal sill reduction.

Before-and-after comparison

Why nostrils look different when tilting the head up and cause nasal obstruction: septal reconstruction

To correct nostril asymmetry, a short nose, and nasal obstruction that developed after previous implant-free rhinoplasty and alar rim lowering, autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction and functional nasal surgery were performed.

Why nasal asymmetry remains after cleft lip and palate, and reconstruction using rib and ear cartilage — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why nasal asymmetry remains after cleft lip and palate, and reconstruction using rib and ear cartilage

For cleft lip- and palate-related asymmetry and alar deformities, septal reconstruction and dorsal augmentation were performed using autologous rib cartilage, along with alar reconstruction using ear cartilage and lateral osteotomy.

Why the nasal tip spreads wide and the nose appears crooked, and how rib cartilage reconstruction is performed

For a crooked nose with a wide, bulbous tip and a drooping tip deformity, autologous rib cartilage nasal structural reconstruction was performed alongside nasolabial angle correction and functional rhinitis surgery.

Why cartilage shows through after multiple rhinoplasties and how to restore the mucosa and structure

A case where autologous rib cartilage was used to reinforce soft tissue, reconstruct nasal structure, and perform functional surgery to improve mucosal thinning, lateral cartilage show-through, and nostril asymmetry resulting from repeated surgeries.

Why the nasal bridge sinks and one side becomes blocked after rhinoplasty osteotomy: Internal nasal valve reconstruction and restoration

A case where nasal bones, the nasal vault, and the septum were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage to resolve collapsed nasal bones, nasal roof collapse, internal nasal valve stenosis, and pain caused by excessive osteotomy in a previous surgery.

Why an old silicone implant capsule calcifies and causes a dorsal hump and crooked nose

A case of complete reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage after removing an L-shaped silicone implant and its calcified capsule inserted 30 years ago, which had caused a dorsal hump and a crooked nose.

Why the nose keeps deviating after multiple surgeries and methods for septal cartilage reconstruction

To resolve persistent septal damage, nasal deviation, and nostril asymmetry following repeated surgeries, the central support pillar was entirely reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage.

Septal perforation and nasal tip cartilage show-through after repeated rhinoplasties: how reconstruction is performed

A case where autologous rib cartilage was used for full septal reconstruction alongside dermis grafting to address repeated surgical history, septal perforation, and thinned nasal tip skin.

Changes that occur when supporting the nasal tip with ear cartilage alone and reconstruction methods using rib cartilage

To resolve persistent nasal obstruction, a crooked nose, and a retracted columella following a prior surgery, complete reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage and septoplasty were performed.

Changes that occur when inflammation persists after rhinoplasty and reconstruction methods — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Changes that occur when inflammation persists after rhinoplasty and reconstruction methods

To resolve chronic inflammation, an upturned nose, and redness of the nasal bridge that persisted after previous surgeries, artificial materials were removed, and structural reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage was performed along with nasal valve surgery.

Why a custom-fit implant is used for a nose with facial asymmetry, and methods for dorsal hump correction — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why a custom-fit implant is used for a nose with facial asymmetry, and methods for dorsal hump correction

Considering congenital facial asymmetry and prominent brow bones, the dorsal hump was corrected with a 3D-printed custom implant, combined with nasal tip plasty using autologous rib cartilage and rhinitis surgery to achieve improvement.

Before-and-after comparison

Causes of nasal tip show-through and correction methods to lower the tip defining point

To correct persistent nasal tip show-through and an upturned nose that remained even after an ear dermis graft, past filler residue was completely removed, the tip defining point was naturally lowered, and nasal tip plasty using autologous rib cartilage was performed.

Why a crooked nose and a drooping tip occur together: How septal reconstruction and rhinitis surgery are performed

Following previous rhinoplasty, poor septal support led to a crooked nose, a drooping tip, and excessive nostril show. These concerns were addressed through septal reconstruction, lateral osteotomy, and tip support correction.

Why a paranasal implant migrates into the nasal cavity causing breathing obstruction, and how to reconstruct it

We removed an old paranasal implant that had migrated into the nasal cavity and obstructed breathing, and completely reconstructed the damaged septum and lower lateral cartilages using autologous rib cartilage, improving both breathing function and nasal appearance.
