Why a septum collapsing to one side causes a crooked nose and blocked breathing, and how to reconstruct it with autologous rib cartilage — Before-and-after comparison

Why a septum collapsing to one side causes a crooked nose and blocked breathing, and how to reconstruct it with autologous rib cartilage

After two prior surgeries, a septum collapsed to the right, a depressed alar wing, and a mucosal defect were corrected through autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction, perichondrium grafting, and re-carving of the silicone implant.

Why the nasal tip appears upturned and the columella looks short after rhinoplasty: methods for lowering the columella and correcting the bridge line

An upturned nasal tip, a short columella, and an unnatural silicone bridge line from previous rhinoplasty were improved using autologous rib cartilage septal extension, custom-carved silicone implant replacement, and nasolabial angle correction.

Reasons for a high radix and upturned nasal tip and correction methods

For a high radix, upturned nasal tip, and columellar and nostril asymmetry from a previous surgery, the implant was replaced, tip derotation was performed using autologous rib cartilage, and lower lateral cartilage correction was carried out.

Bulbous, drooping nasal tip and an obtuse nasolabial angle: causes and correction methods

For a drooping, bulbous nasal tip, asymmetric nasal bridge, deviated septum, and rhinitis symptoms, we performed nasal tip correction using autologous rib cartilage, nasolabial angle adjustment, silicone implant replacement, septoplasty, and inferior turbinate reduction.

Why cartilage extrudes through the nasal mucosa and methods for restoration and reconstruction

Cartilage protruding through the nasal mucosa was removed and the area restored with perichondrium, damaged lower lateral cartilage and a drooping tip were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, and the implant was replaced with customized silicone.

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 nose looks wide and the tip droops after double jaw surgery, and how to reconstruct it with rib cartilage

After double jaw surgery and rhinoplasty, a wide-looking nose and drooping tip were improved by removing the previous materials, reconstructing the septum with autologous rib cartilage, and performing nasal 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 replacing a cartilage nasal tip with an L-shaped silicone implant causes problems

A case where a previously replaced L-shaped silicone implant was removed, the nasal tip was reconstructed with autologous rib cartilage, and the nasal bridge was replaced with an I-shaped implant to correct an upturned nose and a tilted columella.

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 a previously operated nose can look crooked and develop a drooping tip

To address a crooked nose, a drooping tip, and residual nasal filler, we removed the previous filler and performed lateral osteotomy and nasal tip correction using autologous rib cartilage.

Why the nasal bridge looks red after revision rhinoplasty and methods for reconstruction

Redness of the nasal bridge and a long nose that developed after two prior surgeries using autologous and donor rib cartilage were corrected through septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage, implant replacement, and nasal base correction.

How to plan foreign material removal and nasal reconstruction

We resolved the asymmetry and nasal deviation caused by foreign materials such as threads and filler, rebuilding a well-aligned contour using donor rib cartilage septal extension and silicone implant replacement.

How to reconstruct with autologous rib cartilage after silicone implant side effects

In a revision rhinoplasty case presenting with tip redness, cartilage resorption from a silicone foreign body reaction, rhinitis, and a deviated septum, silicone implant exchange was performed in conjunction with septal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage and rhinitis surgery.

How to correct a crooked nose and nostril asymmetry together

This is a case of a crooked nose, nostril asymmetry, and depressive dimpling from scar adhesions following repeated surgeries and alar reduction. Nasal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage and implant replacement were planned, and changes achieved through columellar repositioning and lower lateral cartilage rearrangement were documented.

How to correct nasal obstruction and nostril asymmetry together

In a revision rhinoplasty case involving intranasal mucosal synechiae, a deviated septum, and nostril asymmetry, we removed the Gore-Tex implant, performed septal reconstruction and extension with autologous rib cartilage, along with alar rim extension and silicone implant replacement.
