How to correct nasal length and the nasal tip together in a long nose

A case of a nose that appeared long with nostril asymmetry after two prior nasal surgeries, corrected using a closed approach with silicone implant replacement, autologous rib cartilage septal extension, and adjustment of the radix.

Surgical plan for revision rhinoplasty with septal perforation

In a patient with a history of past surgeries, septal perforation, and saddle nose deformity, septal reconstruction and extension using autologous rib cartilage, alar lowering, and direct closure were performed via a closed approach.

Surgical approach for an upturned and crooked nose

This is a case of correcting a crooked nasal bridge and an upturned nose after two prior surgeries. Using a closed approach, the existing silicone implant and foreign material were removed, the nasal bridge and nasal tip were reconstructed with autologous rib cartilage, and nostril lowering was performed simultaneously.

Reconstruction methods for a contracted nose accompanied by nasal obstruction

This is a case of a contracted nose and nasal obstruction following multiple surgical procedures. After silicone implant removal and stem cell therapy, nasal tip and septal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage and an inferior turbinoplasty were performed through a closed approach.

Revision rhinoplasty for nostril asymmetry and a flared nose

Following a history of double-jaw surgery and rhinoplasty, the anterior nasal spine had been resected, resulting in nostril asymmetry and nasal obstruction. The septum and lower lateral cartilages were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, along with silicone implant exchange and nasal sill reduction.

Custom rhinoplasty method for replacing an unnatural silicone implant

With an unnatural implant outline and a crooked nose, the existing implant was removed and replaced with a wider implant, while autologous rib cartilage was used to lower the columella alongside osteotomy.

Revision rhinoplasty for silicone implant side effects and a wide nose

The existing silicone implant extending to the nasal tip was removed, the thinned tip skin was reinforced, and the profile was improved into a masculine straight line through autologous rib cartilage reconstruction and dorsal silicone replacement.

How to lower a high radix

In a patient presenting with an excessively high radix, a drooping tip, and nasal obstruction, a closed approach was used to lower the starting point, reconstruct the nasal tip using autologous rib cartilage, and perform septoplasty.

Surgical planning considering nasal height and three-dimensional definition

This is a case of silicone implant show-through and a bulbous nasal tip from a surgery performed long ago. Calcification of the capsule around the removed implant was confirmed. Here, I introduce the surgical plan using septal cartilage and donor rib cartilage for tip reshaping, along with changes to the nasal bridge and tip immediately after surgery.

How to lower the radix and columella together

This is a case of a patient who visited the clinic to improve a high radix and the shape of the nasal tip and columella. We planned to adjust both the radix and nasal tip, and documented the changes in the columellar line and nostril asymmetry after surgery.

No-implant revision rhinoplasty for an unnatural, operated-looking nose

In a nose where the implant was overly conspicuous and the radix was excessively high, the silicone implant was removed to transition to a no-implant approach, creating natural contouring along the nasal tip and columella.

Reconstruction methods for a nose contracted after multiple surgeries

In a severe contracted nose that developed after a history of 27 surgeries and fat graft procedures, the protruding silicone implant and degenerated tissue were removed, and the septum and structural support were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage.

Foreign body removal and autologous rib cartilage revision rhinoplasty for chronic foreign body reaction and a long nose

This is a case where a silicone implant shifted almost to the point of extruding through the columella due to a chronic foreign body reaction. The silicone implant, granulation tissue, and glabella filler were removed, and the depleted septum from previous surgery was reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage.

Revision rhinoplasty using autologous rib cartilage for an upturned nose from contracture and nostril asymmetry

A case presenting with a short, upturned nasal tip and nostril asymmetry following a history of silicone implant inflammation. The damaged lower lateral cartilage and septum were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, and replacement of the Gore-Tex implant was included in the surgical plan.
