Before-and-after comparison

Why the nasal bridge sinks and widens after implant removal, and how to reconstruct it

Depression and widening of the nasal bridge, along with a crooked nose and bulbous tip that developed after implant removal, were refined through structural nasal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage, nasal bridge augmentation with a silicone implant, tip refinement, and correction of the nasolabial angle.

Before-and-after comparison

Why the nasal dorsum appears depressed and the tip looks bulbous after dorsal hump reduction, and how to correct it without implants

To improve a bulbous nasal tip, residual hump sensation, and asymmetry without silicone implants, autologous rib cartilage was used to elevate the nasal bridge and dorsal line, combined with cartilage repositioning, cartilage binding, and nasolabial angle correction.

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.

Before-and-after comparison

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.

Preoperative condition

Why rhinitis symptoms recur after surgery, and how to correct a crooked nose at the same time — Before-and-after comparison
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.

Before-and-after comparison

Why bulbous nose, short nose, and retracted columella appear together and how to build tip definition

To correct a severe bulbous nose, short nose, and retracted columella, we performed anterior repositioning of the septal cartilage, septal extension using autologous rib cartilage, partial removal of soft tissue, and repositioning of the lower lateral cartilages.

Why a crooked nose and nasal obstruction remain even after nose filler, and how to correct them

A case correcting a crooked nose, asymmetry, and rhinitis symptoms from a deviated septum after nose filler, using filler removal, donor rib cartilage septal extension, and septoplasty.

When a silicone implant is about to push through the nasal tip skin: why it happens and how to reconstruct it

In an urgent condition where the silicone implant was on the verge of extruding just beneath the nasal tip skin, the implant was removed, and nasal tip reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage and dermal graft reinforcement was performed.

How to address a widened nose and nasal obstruction left by multiple filler injections

A case where a widened nasal bridge, upturned nasal tip, and deviated septum resulting from repeated filler procedures were improved together through filler removal, donor rib cartilage septal extension, and septoplasty.

Before-and-after comparison

Why a dorsal hump often comes with nasal obstruction, and how it is corrected using only autologous rib cartilage

For a severe dorsal hump, drooping tip, and nasal obstruction, septal reconstruction and bridge augmentation with autologous rib cartilage, lateral osteotomy, and submucosal resection of the inferior turbinate were performed.

Before-and-after comparison

Why repeat rhinoplasty thins the nasal tip skin causing cartilage show-through, and how autologous dermis reinforcement helps

To resolve thinned nasal tip skin and cartilage show-through caused by repeated surgeries, retroauricular autologous dermis grafting, lateral osteotomy, and columellar elevation were performed.

When undissolved nasal filler spreads and sinusitis coexists: how removal and correction are performed

Spread nasal filler, a dorsal hump, a long-looking nasal tip, and sinusitis symptoms were addressed together through filler removal, hump reduction, and septoplasty.

Dorsal hump and crooked nose worsened after trauma: A correction method with minimal change

A case in which septal extension using donor rib cartilage, lateral osteotomy, and inferior turbinate rhinitis surgery were performed for a dorsal hump, crooked nose, and nasal obstruction that worsened after trauma.

Before-and-after comparison

Why contracture and septal perforation occur after old Gore-Tex, and how reconstruction is performed

To resolve contracture, septal perforation, and cartilage loss that occurred after Gore-Tex surgery performed long ago, the septum was reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage and the perforation was closed.

Why the septum is damaged and rhinitis recurs after double jaw surgery

We reconstructed the septum damaged by double jaw surgery using autologous rib cartilage, and combined rhinitis surgery, right alar reduction, and lateral osteotomy to create a straight bridge line.

What to look for when nasal bone asymmetry and a drooping tip coincide with chronic rhinitis

Nasal bone asymmetry, chronic rhinitis, and a drooping nasal tip were corrected through lateral osteotomy, septal reconstruction using donor rib cartilage, and adjustment of the silicone implant.

Why an old silicone implant shows through at the nasal tip, and methods for removal and reconstruction

Implant show-through at the nasal tip and chronic rhinitis symptoms following an old silicone implant placement were addressed through implant removal, reconstruction of the septum and nasal tip cartilage, and rhinitis surgery.

Why Medpor extrudes through the nasal mucosa, and how removal and reconstruction are performed

The extruded Medpor and damaged tissue protruding into the nasal cavity were removed, and the septum along with the missing lower lateral cartilage was reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage to treat asymmetry and inflammation.
