Why nasal bridge and tip show-through happens after old silicone rhinoplasty: dermal reinforcement and rib cartilage reconstruction

To resolve show-through of an L-shaped silicone implant and cartilage beneath thinned skin, we removed the previous silicone implant, reinforced the skin with dermis, adjusted the tip height, reconstructed the nasal tip with autologous rib cartilage, and replaced the implant with a new one.

Why the nose turns up, the columella retracts, and the tip looks pinched: how composite correction is performed

For an upturned nose, retracted columella, pinched tip, and nostril asymmetry following repeated surgeries, columellar reconstruction, pinched tip correction, septoplasty, and submucosal resection of the inferior turbinate were performed.

Why a crooked nose and irregular dorsum occur: implant removal and reconstruction methods

We removed the premaxillary ("cat") implant and irregularly placed ear cartilage from previous surgeries, then refined the crooked nose and radix line using a dermal graft, lateral osteotomy, and autologous rib cartilage septal extension.

Why repeat rhinoplasty thins the nasal tip skin causing cartilage show-through, and how autologous dermis reinforcement helps

To resolve thinned nasal tip skin and cartilage show-through caused by repeated surgeries, retroauricular autologous dermis grafting, lateral osteotomy, and columellar elevation were performed.

Why bulbous and flared tips persist after revision rhinoplasty: How reconstruction is performed using autologous rib cartilage

To restore septal support weakened by prior surgery and address a bulbous, flared nasal tip, we performed septal reconstruction and septal extension using autologous rib cartilage.

Why the septum is damaged and rhinitis recurs after double jaw surgery

We reconstructed the septum damaged by double jaw surgery using autologous rib cartilage, and combined rhinitis surgery, right alar reduction, and lateral osteotomy to create a straight bridge line.

Why the nasal bridge lowers and widens as artificial dermis is absorbed

After identifying a lowered, widened nasal bridge and septal damage caused by artificial dermis absorption, I removed the residual dermis and reconstructed the septum with donor rib cartilage to restore bridge height.

Why the nose looks crooked after dorsal hump surgery, and how septal reconstruction is performed

A crooked nose and deviated septum that developed after dorsal hump correction were improved by removing the existing donor rib cartilage, reconstructing the septum with autologous rib cartilage, and performing submucosal resection of the inferior turbinate.

Why nostrils become visible and nasal bridge volume is lost after multiple surgeries

A case of nasal reconstruction using recycled autologous rib cartilage combined with donor rib cartilage and skin grafts to correct an upturned nasal deformity and asymmetry caused by repeated surgeries.

Why contracture and nasal obstruction develop together after multiple rhinoplasties, and how reconstruction is performed

A case involving a patient who experienced septal cartilage damage, an upturned nasal tip, and severe nasal obstruction after 8 surgeries over 15 years, where the septum was reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage and reinforced with dermis.

Why grafted dermis repeatedly absorbs, and how to reconstruct the nose

A case in which nasal deformity and septal damage caused by repeated dermal grafting and absorption were corrected through structural reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage and recycling of existing dermis.

Aged nasal implants and nasal pain: key points to evaluate in revision rhinoplasty

A case in an older patient with a 50-year history of repeated surgeries, nasal pain, and a crooked nose deformity, where the previous cartilage causing the pain was removed and the nose was reconstructed using donor rib cartilage.

Planning implant-free rhinoplasty using autologous rib cartilage in patients with allergic tendencies

This is a revision rhinoplasty case where autologous rib cartilage was chosen instead of a silicone implant due to the patient's allergic constitution and concerns about inflammation. Drooping tip and a crooked nose were corrected through septal extension, bridge augmentation, and cartilage repositioning.
