How to reconstruct a pinched and upturned nose using autologous rib cartilage

A case where an upturned nose, pinched alae, and a crooked nose resulting from multiple previous rhinoplasties were corrected with lateral osteotomy, septal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage, and dermal grafting.

How to correct nasal obstruction and nostril asymmetry together

In a revision rhinoplasty case involving intranasal mucosal synechiae, a deviated septum, and nostril asymmetry, we removed the Gore-Tex implant, performed septal reconstruction and extension with autologous rib cartilage, along with alar rim extension and silicone implant replacement.

How to correct an upturned nose and overly curved bridge after repeated surgeries

In a nose with septal damage, an upturned nose, and a high radix after 5 surgeries, the filler and silicone implant were removed, followed by septal reconstruction and extension using autologous rib cartilage and placement of a new silicone implant.

Supportive structures of a low nose and autologous rib cartilage correction methods

A low, flat, and uneven nose was refined through closed autologous rib cartilage septal extension, tip and bridge augmentation, deviated septum correction, and lateral osteotomy.

Planning rhinoplasty to address multiple nasal shape concerns together

To resolve a long nose, drooping tip, and nostril asymmetry that developed after prior surgery using a silicone implant, ear cartilage, and Medpor, the Medpor was removed and autologous rib cartilage septal extension along with nasal tip reconstruction were performed.

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.

Revision rhinoplasty methods for a contracted nose and retracted columella

To correct an upturned nose, retracted columella, and nasal obstruction caused by contracture after multiple surgeries, stem cell therapy was performed followed by closed septal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage, lowering the columella, and osteotomy.

How to simultaneously correct a dorsal hump and nasal tip shape

A bumpy nasal bridge, bulbous nose, and dorsal hump caused by residual filler from past injections were smoothly corrected using closed filler removal and septal extension with donor rib cartilage.

Revision rhinoplasty for nostril asymmetry and a flared nose

Following a history of double-jaw surgery and rhinoplasty, the anterior nasal spine had been resected, resulting in nostril asymmetry and nasal obstruction. The septum and lower lateral cartilages were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, along with silicone implant exchange and nasal sill reduction.

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.

Removal of calcium filler injected into the nose and reconstruction methods

Calcium filler causing a widened glabella was thoroughly removed using a closed approach, and the low nose was given three-dimensional correction through autologous rib cartilage septal extension and silicone implant placement.

How to lower a high radix

In a patient presenting with an excessively high radix, a drooping tip, and nasal obstruction, a closed approach was used to lower the starting point, reconstruct the nasal tip using autologous rib cartilage, and perform septoplasty.

How to correct a nose that has widened from fillers

A case correcting a nasal bridge and nasal tip that became wide and blunt after 5 nasal filler treatments. After dissolving and removing the filler, lateral osteotomy, silicone implant placement, and nasal tip correction using autologous rib cartilage were performed.

How to correct a bulbous and wide nose

A case addressing a bulbous, wide nasal tip, a flat bridge, and an impression of a protruding mouth. We adjusted the columella and nasolabial angle, and recorded the immediate postoperative changes in tip width and nostril asymmetry.

Reconstruction methods for a nose contracted after multiple surgeries

In a severe contracted nose that developed after a history of 27 surgeries and fat graft procedures, the protruding silicone implant and degenerated tissue were removed, and the septum and structural support were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage.

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.

How to correct a bulbous and wide nose

This is a case addressing a depressed, flattened nasal tip, a crooked nasal bridge, and nasal obstruction. We planned nasal tip cartilage reinforcement, osteotomy, and rhinitis surgery. This record details correcting a weak septum during surgery and the changes observed following nasal sill reduction.
