An uneven nasal bridge after a dermal graft: causes and implant-free reconstruction

A case where a previously placed dermal graft had caused an uneven nasal bridge, alongside an unresolved bulbous nose and nostril asymmetry, which were corrected by completely removing the existing dermis and performing a comprehensive reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage.

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.

Causes of nasal tip show-through and correction methods to lower the tip defining point

To correct persistent nasal tip show-through and an upturned nose that remained even after an ear dermis graft, past filler residue was completely removed, the tip defining point was naturally lowered, and nasal tip plasty using autologous rib cartilage was performed.

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 foreign material from illicit injections remains after removal and how to correct an upturned nasal tip

Due to residual foreign material from past illicit injections, an upturned nose and excessive nostril show persisted; the remaining foreign material was completely removed, and tip rhinoplasty using autologous rib cartilage was performed alongside radix adjustment.

Why a paranasal implant migrates into the nasal cavity causing breathing obstruction, and how to reconstruct it

We removed an old paranasal implant that had migrated into the nasal cavity and obstructed breathing, and completely reconstructed the damaged septum and lower lateral cartilages using autologous rib cartilage, improving both breathing function and nasal appearance.

Problems caused by excessive harvest of septal cartilage and methods for reconstruction

In a patient whose septal cartilage had been excessively harvested during previous surgeries, leading to a shortened nasal tip and nostril asymmetry, the septum was solidly reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage to restore nasal length.

Why an arrow nose appears only when smiling and how to correct tip cartilage

To improve a dorsal hump, crooked nose, and drooping arrow nose when smiling, autologous rib cartilage was used to reposition the nasal tip, combined with lateral osteotomy, septoplasty, and rhinitis surgery.

Why donor dermis absorbs after multiple revision surgeries and how to reconstruct the septum

For a patient who experienced partial absorption of donor dermis on the nasal bridge and septal damage after multiple revision surgeries, the donor dermis was removed, the septum was reconstructed with autologous rib cartilage, and the skin was reinforced with retroauricular dermis.

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.

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.
