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.

How to reconstruct with autologous rib cartilage after silicone implant side effects

In a revision rhinoplasty case presenting with tip redness, cartilage resorption from a silicone foreign body reaction, rhinitis, and a deviated septum, silicone implant exchange was performed in conjunction with septal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage and rhinitis surgery.

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.

Nasal structure and correction methods for a bulbous, widened nose

A case involving bridge pain, implant mobility, and a bulbous tip from a silicone implant placed 20 years ago. The previous implant and granulation tissue were removed, followed by septal extension using autologous rib cartilage and placement of a new implant.
