Reconstruction methods for an upturned nose and damaged support structures

An upturned nose accompanied by loss of the septum and damage to the lower lateral cartilages from excessive cartilage harvesting was restored through septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage and alar cartilage reconstruction using the previous ear cartilage.

Upturned nose and nasal obstruction: how to reconstruct structural support with rib cartilage

For an upturned nose and severe nasal obstruction caused by septal cartilage loss following silicone implant removal, we performed total septal reconstruction using rib cartilage, nostril lowering, and internal nasal valve reconstruction.

Correcting a low nasal bridge and nasal obstruction together

A low, flat nasal bridge, a bulbous tip, and nasal obstruction caused by a deviated septum were improved through rhinoplasty using septal cartilage and ear cartilage, alongside inferior turbinate reduction.

How to correct a contracted nose and inflammation caused by residual foreign material

Contracture and septal defect developed due to residual mesh and a foreign body reaction from previous surgeries. We removed the remaining foreign material, reconstructed the septum using autologous rib cartilage, and performed a skin graft to the columella.

How to plan lowering the columella and nasolabial angle correction together

A case correcting an upturned nasal tip, retracted columella, and nostril show using autologous rib cartilage nasal reconstruction, columellar lowering, nasolabial angle correction, septal surgery, and inferior turbinate surgery.

Revision rhinoplasty for a long nose and a wide, flat nasal bridge

A long nose, wide nasal bridge, mucus pooling, and nasal obstruction resulting from multiple prior surgeries were corrected using lateral osteotomy, autologous rib cartilage grafting, and septoplasty.

Corrective approaches for nasal obstruction and asymmetry after lateral osteotomy

A case in which nasal bone depression and nasal valve stenosis causing nasal obstruction following lateral osteotomy were addressed through lateral bone mobilization, nasal valve reconstruction, and dorsal augmentation with autologous rib cartilage.

How to correct a sharp nasal tip and cartilage show-through

To address a sharp nasal tip and cartilage show-through following previous surgeries, the existing ear cartilage was removed, and donor rib cartilage alongside acellular dermal graft was used to reinforce the cartilage framework and overlying skin.

Surgical planning that examines both the desired nasal shape and current anatomy

A case of correcting a retracted columella and nostril asymmetry after repeated surgeries using a donor rib cartilage graft and scar tissue excision. The patient wished to maintain the existing silicone implant without altering the nasal dorsum.

Supportive structures in a contracted nose and revision rhinoplasty using autologous rib cartilage

For a contracted nose and a sharply upturned nasal tip that developed after multiple surgeries, septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage, removal of inflammatory tissue from the nasal tip, and nostril lowering were performed.

Revision rhinoplasty methods for a crooked nose and nostril asymmetry

For a patient who developed a depressed nostril sill, an upturned nose, and nostril asymmetry 15 years after primary rhinoplasty, a closed-approach surgical plan was established including septal reconstruction, cartilage adjustment, and implant exchange.
