How to plan bulbous nose correction together with lowering the columella

To correct snoring, a retracted columella, a crooked nose, and a bulbous nose, residual bridge filler was removed, and septal extension with autologous rib cartilage, lowering the columella, and septoplasty and inferior turbinate surgery were performed through a closed approach.

Surgical methods for a bulbous nose and wide nasal tip

A case report of a male patient complaining of a blunt, wide nasal tip, a drooping appearance, and nasal obstruction, treated via a closed approach with subcutaneous tissue excision, septal extension, and septoplasty.

Correcting a crooked nose and nostril asymmetry while considering breathing

Following prior filler and rhinoplasty, the patient experienced a persistent crooked nose, nostril asymmetry, and breathing difficulty; we performed filler removal, septal reconstruction and extension using autologous rib cartilage, and inferior turbinate resection.

Rhinoplasty approach examining the structure of a bulbous nasal tip

In a patient presenting with a bulbous, drooping tip and symptoms of a deviated septum after previous rhinoplasty, septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage, lateral osteotomy, and turbinoplasty were performed via a closed approach.

A corrective approach addressing both nasal obstruction and a bulbous nose

To improve nasal obstruction caused by rhinitis and a deviated septum, along with a drooping bulbous nose, septoplasty, inferior turbinate reduction, autologous rib cartilage septal extension, and silicone bridge augmentation were performed using a closed approach.

Crooked nose, dorsal hump, and short nose: structural analysis and correction methods

A nose deviated to the right, accompanied by a dorsal hump, an upturned nasal tip, and nasal obstruction, was corrected through closed septoplasty, submucosal resection of the inferior turbinates, and septal extension.

Before-and-after comparison

Surgical approach for an upturned and crooked nose

This is a case of correcting a crooked nasal bridge and an upturned nose after two prior surgeries. Using a closed approach, the existing silicone implant and foreign material were removed, the nasal bridge and nasal tip were reconstructed with autologous rib cartilage, and nostril lowering was performed simultaneously.

Rhinoplasty methods for improving dorsal hump and nasal obstruction

A case of correcting a long dorsal hump, crooked nose, and nasal obstruction without an implant. Through a closed approach, the bone was refined, lateral osteotomy was performed, and septoplasty along with bridge augmentation using diced cartilage was carried out.

How to correct a pinched nose and nostril asymmetry

A case correcting pinched alae, an upturned nose, and nostril asymmetry following previous surgeries. Using a closed approach, septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage, lower lateral cartilage reconstruction, alar rim grafting (lowering the alar rim), and dermis grafting were performed.

How to correct a crooked nose and a bulbous, drooping nasal tip

A crooked nose with a drooping, bulbous tip and a high radix following multiple surgeries was corrected using autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction and extension, radix lowering, and rhinitis surgery.

Surgical approach for nasal obstruction, a drooping tip, and lowering the columella

Right-sided nasal obstruction, a drooping nasal tip, and a retracted columella following two previous surgeries were addressed using autologous rib cartilage septal extension, implant replacement, and mucosal adhesiolysis.

Revision rhinoplasty approach for a long nose and high radix after repeated surgeries

A long nose, high radix, and columellar depression that developed after multiple prior surgeries were corrected by removing previous foreign material, reconstructing the septum with donor rib cartilage, and carving a silicone implant.

Revision rhinoplasty methods for alar and nostril asymmetry

Alar and nostril asymmetry and tip drooping after three prior surgeries were corrected via a closed approach using autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction, septal extension, and septoplasty.

Custom rhinoplasty method for replacing an unnatural silicone implant

With an unnatural implant outline and a crooked nose, the existing implant was removed and replaced with a wider implant, while autologous rib cartilage was used to lower the columella alongside osteotomy.

How to correct nasal obstruction and a wide, spread-out nose

This is a case where mucosal adhesion, septal deviation, and tip deformity were identified following previous surgeries. We planned support reinforcement using autologous rib cartilage along with functional surgery, and recorded the postoperative changes in columellar and nostril asymmetry.

Contracted nose reconstruction method for the nasal bridge and nasal tip using autologous rib cartilage

This is a case of a contracted nose following total removal of materials due to acute inflammation after a previous surgery. After stem cell injection therapy, the damaged septum and lower lateral cartilage were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, and adhesiolysis was planned to address nasal obstruction.

How to plan nostril lowering (alar rim grafting) in an upturned nose

A case where a septum weakened by previous surgery was reinforced with donor rib cartilage, and nostril lowering was performed using an ear cartilage graft and lower lateral cartilage repositioning. The existing autologous gluteal dermis was reused at the nasal tip, and functional surgery for nasal obstruction was performed simultaneously.

Correction methods for a small and bulbous nose

This is a case of a small, bulbous nose accompanied by poor skin elasticity and nasal obstruction. The thin, deviated septum was partially reconstructed and extended using autologous rib cartilage, and functional nasal surgery was planned for the deviated septum and inferior turbinate.
