How to reconstruct a columella retracted by contracture

Loss of the septum and retraction of the columella caused by inflammation and contracture were restored with three-dimensional definition through total autologous rib cartilage reconstruction and lowering the columella.

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.

Methods for correcting a drooping and crooked nose

This is a case where the nasal tip began drooping and deviating to the left after surgery with donor rib cartilage, raising suspicion of partial resorption. Nasal reconstruction and septal extension using autologous rib cartilage were planned, and immediate postoperative changes in the nasal tip and nasolabial angle, as well as the limitations of asymmetry correction, were documented.

Is it possible to correct a philtrum reduction and remove autologous dermis?

Nostril asymmetry, a crooked nose, and nasal bone defects that developed after a previous philtrum reduction and rhinoplasty were reconstructed using lateral osteotomy restoration, autologous rib cartilage, and a rotation flap.

How to correct shape in a second surgery for a contracted nose

This is a case of a second surgery addressing a drooping tip and columellar scarring after reconstructing a contracted nose with autologous rib cartilage. We planned nasal tip reinforcement and a skin graft, and recorded changes in the position of the columella and the skin graft site after surgery.

How to correct an upturned contracted nose with autologous rib cartilage

In a patient presenting with contracture, an upturned nose, and loss of lower lateral cartilages due to inflammation after previous surgery, we performed septal and alar cartilage reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage combined with stem cell therapy and alar rim lowering.

How to improve a bulbous nose and a protruding mouth

This is a case of a patient with a history of two-jaw surgery, a bulbous nasal tip, a wide nasal sill (nostril floor), and asymmetry. Considering the possibility of detachment of the septal base, reconstruction was planned, and changes in the nasal tip, nasolabial angle, and nasal sill were documented.

Methods for correcting an arrow-shaped nose and long nose

A long, drooping arrow-shaped nose and dorsal hump were refined through osteotomy and implant replacement, while septal extension using autologous rib cartilage and nasal sill reduction improved the nasolabial angle and nostril asymmetry.

Will correcting a crooked nose improve facial asymmetry?

This case presented facial asymmetry accompanied by a nose deviated to the right, a bulbous nasal tip, and a dorsal hump. Osteotomy and septal repositioning were planned, and notes taken immediately after surgery record changes in the deviation and the drooping tip.

How to correct a long nose by lowering the radix

The excessively high Gore-Tex implant was removed from the glabella, the radix was lowered to the pupil line, and the septum and retracted columella were corrected using autologous rib cartilage.

How to correct a drooping tip, dorsal hump, and crooked nose with autologous rib cartilage

This is a case of a patient concerned about a dorsal hump, a drooping tip, and a crooked nasal bridge. Considering the patient's existing bridge height and thick skin, the plan was adjusted during surgery to shape the nasal bridge by filling in the deficient areas with autologous rib cartilage.

Correction of an uneven, crooked, and upturned nose using autologous rib cartilage

This is a case of a patient concerned about an uneven, wide, crooked nose, prominent nostril show from the front, and a wide nasal floor. Here, I introduce the surgical plan involving lateral osteotomy, tip plasty using autologous rib cartilage, and nasal floor reduction, along with photos taken immediately after surgery.

Revision rhinoplasty with autologous rib cartilage and columella correction for a long nose and dorsal hump

This is a case of a patient concerned about a nose that still looked long due to a residual dorsal hump and a drooping tip even after a previous surgery. The nasal bone and upper lateral cartilage were refined, the nasal tip and columella were corrected, and a thin silicone implant was placed to cover irregularities.

Correction of a bulbous nose, wide nasal spread, and drooping tip using autologous rib cartilage

This is a case of a bulbous nose with thick skin, a widely spread nasal tip, and a drooping appearance. Subcutaneous soft tissue reduction, cartilage repositioning, and a nasal bridge implant were planned, and during the actual surgery, correction of the nasolabial angle improved the bulbous impression.

Revision rhinoplasty using autologous rib cartilage for an upturned nose, crooked nose, and nostril asymmetry

This is a case where excessive septal cartilage harvest led to a deviated septum, nasal obstruction, and an upturned, crooked tip, which were corrected by reconstructing the septum with autologous rib cartilage, removing scar tissue, and repositioning the lower lateral cartilages.

Revision rhinoplasty with autologous rib cartilage for bulbous tip, crooked nose, and nostril asymmetry

This is a case of a bulbous nose with thick skin, scar tissue in the nasal tip, and an implant deviated to the right. Removal of scar tissue, reconstruction and repositioning of the lower lateral (alar) cartilage, and nasal tip plasty using autologous rib cartilage were performed, with lateral osteotomy planned.

Revision rhinoplasty with autologous rib cartilage for a bulbous and drooping nose, along with columellar and nostril correction

A case of a patient who visited our clinic with a bulbous, drooping tip and nostril asymmetry. During surgery, severe damage to the septum and lower lateral cartilages was identified, leading to reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage, while alar rim lowering and lateral osteotomy were included in the surgical plan.
