Why nasal tip cartilage shows through the skin and turns upward: reinforcement and reconstruction methods

For a patient presenting with visible nasal tip cartilage and an upturned nose following previous surgery with a silicone implant and ear cartilage, we performed silicone implant removal, septal extension using autologous rib cartilage, fat grafting, and skin reinforcement with donor dermis.

Why rib cartilage calcification must be evaluated in advance and correction methods for crooked and short noses

After evaluating calcification in the autologous rib cartilage, the 8th rib cartilage was harvested to correct a crooked nose, short nose, and nostril show, while an inferior turbinate reduction was performed concurrently to improve breathing function.

Why the nose looks crooked and the columella tilts to one side, and how to correct it

A mobile silicone implant, a tilted columella, and a crooked nasal bridge were corrected through the removal of the existing implant and foreign material, lateral osteotomy, and septal reinforcement using autologous rib cartilage.

Why the columella retracts and the nasal tip becomes bulbous years after rhinoplasty, and how to reconstruct it

Columellar retraction and bulbous tip deformity after previous dorsal hump reduction and osteotomy were corrected through septal extension with autologous rib cartilage, columellar cartilage grafting, and lateral osteotomies.

Why nostrils narrow after illegal injections by unlicensed practitioners, and methods for removal and reconstruction

In a patient who developed nostril stenosis and a drooping tip from illegal injections administered by an unlicensed practitioner 20 years ago, we removed the foreign material and reconstructed the septum and lower lateral cartilage using autologous rib cartilage to improve the nasal shape.

Why the nose looks bulbous and spread out, and how to correct the nasolabial angle and columella

A wide, blunt nasal bridge, drooping nasal tip, and retracted columella were corrected into a slim, three-dimensional profile using septal extension with autologous rib cartilage, nasolabial angle correction, and nostril sill reduction.

Why the columella droops severely into an arrow nose, and rib cartilage reconstruction methods

For a patient presenting with a severely drooping columella, an arrow nose, and nostril asymmetry after previous surgeries, autologous rib cartilage septal extension and lower lateral cartilage repositioning were performed to improve tip drooping and asymmetry.

Why nostril asymmetry and an upturned tip remain after alar reduction and how to correct them

A revision rhinoplasty case where nostril asymmetry, an upturned nasal tip, and an implant step-off visible after alar reduction were corrected through structural reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage, silicone implant replacement, and nasolabial angle correction.

Why a nose becomes short and upturned with a retracted columella, and how autologous rib cartilage reconstruction works

A case where an upturned nose and a retracted columella caused by cartilage loss from previous surgeries were naturally restored using autologous rib cartilage for lower lateral cartilage reconstruction and septal extension.

Nasal bone fractures: When cosmetic surgery can be combined and how to stage the procedure

To correct a traumatic nasal bone fracture and a deviated nasal tip, closed reduction and autologous rib cartilage septal extension were performed without an implant, with plans to adjust the nasal bridge height after an observation period.
