Why a depressed nasal bone on one side makes the nose look crooked: Osteotomy reconstruction and septal reconstruction

A crooked nose and facial asymmetry caused by a depressed right nasal bone and deviated septum were corrected using osteotomy along with septal reconstruction and extension using autologous rib cartilage.

Short and upturned nose with insufficient septal cartilage: how to lengthen it with rib cartilage reinforcement

A short, upturned nose caused by septal cartilage deficiency from a previous surgery was corrected with septal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage, combined with chin filler removal and receding chin correction.

Why Medpor in the nose causes nasal obstruction, and how Medpor removal and septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage are performed

A septum weakened by Medpor inserted 10 years ago was completely removed and reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, performed concurrently with septoplasty and inferior turbinate surgery.

Depression along the nasal bridge and an upturned feel after repeated implant insertions and removals

Correcting nostril asymmetry, an upturned nasal tip, and an overly high radix caused by repeated surgeries using autologous rib cartilage septal extension and height adjustment.

Before-and-after comparison

Why the L-strut thins after multiple nose surgeries and how to structurally reconstruct it

The septal L-strut, thinned after three previous surgeries, was reinforced with autologous rib cartilage, and the crooked nose was reconstructed through lateral osteotomies and columellar lengthening.

Why the glabella widens and the nasal tip upturns after repeated filler and thread treatments

Foreign materials that had widened the glabella along with the previous implant were removed, and the upturned nose was corrected through partial septal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage and nasolabial angle adjustment.

Before-and-after comparison

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.

Conditions for a nasal bridge that appears as parallel lines and criteria for shaping the nostrils

Customized rhinoplasty was performed to achieve a natural nasal bridge line that is not excessively high and oval-shaped nostrils that harmonize with the face shape.

Before-and-after comparison

Why the radix starts too high and the nose looks crooked, and how to correct it with autologous rib cartilage

Following a previous implant surgery, issues with a high radix, crooked dorsum, and upturned tip were corrected using autologous rib cartilage septal extension, lateral osteotomy, and nasolabial angle correction.

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.

Scar tissue and nostril asymmetry after nasal fracture and repeated revision surgeries: reconstructive approaches

Following trauma and revision surgery, the patient presented with concerns over silicone implant complications, nostril asymmetry, and scar adhesions. After removing the implant, autologous rib cartilage reconstruction and septoplasty were performed.

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 infection recurs after rhinoplasty: treatment of inflammation and staged reconstruction

In a patient presenting with mucosal perforation and contracture deformity caused by implant infection, inflamed tissue was debrided and irrigated, followed by staged septal reconstruction.

Why clicking sounds and shape changes occur in the nasal tip after trauma, and reconstruction with rib cartilage

For a patient who experienced nasal tip deformity and asymmetry of the nasal bone and nostrils following everyday trauma, autologous rib cartilage reconstruction and lateral osteotomy were performed to establish a stable structure.

How to perform reconstruction when multiple revision surgeries leave no nasal cartilage behind

This is a case where the septum was damaged and both lower lateral cartilages were removed following multiple rhinoplasties. The support structure was reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, concurrently correcting the upturned nose, deviated columella, and nasolabial angle.
