Why an overly high nose looks unnatural and deviates, and how it can be reconstructed

For an overly high "Pinocchio-like" deviated nose with septal damage, the silicone implant was removed, and autologous rib cartilage reconstruction, radix adjustment, and nasal sill reduction were performed.

How high can a small, blunt nose be raised? — Skin limitations and reconstruction methods

A primary rhinoplasty case for a patient with a small, wide nasal tip, drooping, a minor dorsal hump, and chronic nasal obstruction, treated through gradual expansion accounting for skin elasticity, autologous rib cartilage reconstruction, and septal correction.

Why the nose looks deviated to one side and feels blocked at night: septal reconstruction and nasal obstruction relief

A case of autologous rib cartilage reconstruction combined with septal and inferior turbinate surgery to address a left-deviated nose, long nose, bulbous tip, severe facial asymmetry, and nasal obstruction.

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.

Why a low nasal bridge and bulbous tip persist after multiple surgeries: rib cartilage reconstruction and facial balance

A case where a previously placed dermal graft was removed, followed by autologous rib cartilage reconstruction, paranasal augmentation, and chin implant surgery to address a persistent low nasal bridge, bulbous tip, and protruding mouth.

Why the nasal tip shows through after dermal graft surgery and how to reconstruct it with autologous rib cartilage

A case where donor dermis previously placed on the nasal dorsum caused tip show-through and made the midface appear elongated; all donor dermis was completely removed, autologous rib cartilage reconstruction was performed, and stem cell therapy was combined.

Slight lack of height and subtle asymmetry remaining after rhinoplasty: Why they occur and how they are refined

After a stable primary surgery, reinforcement using autologous rib cartilage, septal reconstruction, and nasolabial angle correction were performed to add height and correct subtle bilateral asymmetry.

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

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

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.

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 the nasal bridge looks artificial and the nose becomes upturned, and how to reconstruct it

After surgery with a silicone implant and donor rib cartilage, a chalk-like nasal bridge and excessive nostril show occurred. A natural line was reconstructed through septal extension using autologous rib cartilage and alar rim lowering.

How the nose changes when donor rib cartilage is resorbed, and how autologous rib cartilage reconstruction is performed

For a patient whose nasal tip had shrunk, whose alae appeared pinched, and whose nasal bridge developed scarring due to donor rib cartilage resorption, we performed alar reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage, septal extension, and cartilage and dermal graft reinforcement.

How to refine only the nasal tip and transition area without an implant

To maintain the existing bridge line and address a crooked nose and dorsal hump without major changes, we performed implant-free rhinoplasty using autologous cartilage, lateral osteotomy, and rhinitis surgery.

Before-and-after comparison

Why septal cartilage damage causes a drooping tip and a retracted columella

For a drooping tip and retracted columella caused by septal cartilage damage following previous surgery with autologous rib cartilage and a silicone implant, the septum was reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, the columella was restored, and the nasolabial angle was corrected.

Changes following nasal bridge skin necrosis after rhinoplasty and how reconstruction is performed

In a case with signs of nasal bridge skin necrosis and alar asymmetry after multiple rhinoplasties, the nasal bridge and nostril shape were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage grafting, alar repositioning, and growth factor application.

Why nostril asymmetry and a drooping tip develop: reconstruction combining different cartilages

To correct congenital nostril asymmetry and a drooping nasal tip, residual filler and foreign material were removed, and septal extension was performed using both donor rib cartilage and septal cartilage.
