When tip skin is lacking after alar and philtrum reduction, how to determine the elevation limit

In a patient with limited skin elasticity and mucosal adhesion following multiple nasal surgeries along with alar and philtrum reductions, we performed septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage, nasolabial angle correction, columellar extension, and nasal synechia adhesiolysis.

A nose with almost no septal cartilage left: why the nasal tip cannot be elevated

A case where the septal support was largely lost from previous surgeries, resulting in nostril asymmetry. The central support was reconstructed with autologous rib cartilage, and the nasal tip was elevated with dermis and cartilage grafts.

How rib cartilage reconstruction is done when the septum is damaged after multiple surgeries

A case where a septal defect and filler-induced deformity were identified after five prior surgeries. Following filler removal, the septum was reconstructed with autologous rib cartilage, and the nasal tip was reinforced using existing deep temporal fascia.

Why nasal tip skin thins and cartilage shows through, and how skin reinforcement is done

A case of skin thinning, cartilage show-through, and an upturned nose following contracted nose surgery. The skin was reinforced with dermis and autologous rib perichondrium, along with septal extension.

Why the nose looks wide and bulbous, and how to correct it with septal cartilage and ear cartilage

A case of a wide, bulbous nasal tip and asymmetry with no prior surgical history. Autologous septal and ear cartilage were used to construct a support strut, and septal and turbinate surgery were performed concurrently.

Why an autologous dermal graft absorbs, leading to a widened bridge and upturned nose, and how to correct it

A case of an upturned nose and widened bridge caused by dermal graft absorption. After removing nasal filler placed 2 years ago, a straight bridge line was established through septal extension, alar rim lowering, and correction of the depressed dorsum.

Why short, upturned noses and crooked noses occur together, and how to correct them with septal extension

A short, upturned, crooked nose following an L-shaped silicone implant was lowered using septal extension with autologous rib cartilage, and the airway was improved through nasal valve reconstruction and septal correction.

Why the nasal tip turns upward and nostril show increases years after rhinoplasty: Medpor removal and autologous dermis reconstruction

To resolve an upturned nose and nostril asymmetry resulting from surgery performed 13 years ago, adhered Medpor was carefully dissected and removed, and the septum was reconstructed using autologous dermis.

A short, upturned nose caused by septal cartilage deficiency from a previous surgery was corrected with septal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage, combined with chin filler removal and receding chin correction.

Why a crooked nose and nasal obstruction persist after surgery, and how revision is performed

Residual crooked nose and rhinitis-induced nasal obstruction following previous surgery were corrected through partial septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage, silicone implant replacement, lateral osteotomy, and submucosal resection of the inferior turbinates.

Why the L-strut thins after multiple nose surgeries and how to structurally reconstruct it

The septal L-strut, thinned after three previous surgeries, was reinforced with autologous rib cartilage, and the crooked nose was reconstructed through lateral osteotomies and columellar lengthening.

Why inflammation recurs after rhinoplasty and how to reconstruct using only autologous tissue

Persistent tip inflammation, deviation, and nasal symptoms following repeated surgeries were resolved by removing previous foreign materials and performing septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage alongside functional nasal surgery.

Why nostrils look different when tilting the head up and cause nasal obstruction: septal reconstruction

To correct nostril asymmetry, a short nose, and nasal obstruction that developed after previous implant-free rhinoplasty and alar rim lowering, autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction and functional nasal surgery were performed.

Scar tissue and nostril asymmetry after nasal fracture and repeated revision surgeries: reconstructive approaches

Following trauma and revision surgery, the patient presented with concerns over silicone implant complications, nostril asymmetry, and scar adhesions. After removing the implant, autologous rib cartilage reconstruction and septoplasty were performed.
