Why a dorsal hump and a crooked nose often occur together, and correction methods using osteotomy and autologous rib cartilage

For a male primary rhinoplasty patient with a bulbous, crooked nose with a dorsal hump, lateral osteotomy, cartilage tying, nasal tip plasty with autologous rib cartilage, and a customized silicone implant were performed.

Why silicone implants deviate and make the nose look long: implant replacement and rib cartilage reconstruction

Silicone implant deviation, excessive nostril show, and a high radix were corrected by removing the previous implant, reconstructing the nasal tip with autologous rib cartilage, placing a customized implant, and adjusting the nasolabial angle.

Why a nose appears low and how to build height using autologous rib cartilage

For a male patient who had received repeated filler injections for a low nasal bridge, foreign material was removed, followed by nasal tip rhinoplasty using autologous rib cartilage and the insertion of a customized silicone implant.

Why the nasal bridge looks wide and uneven, and how osteotomy and rib cartilage tip surgery are performed

Foreign material was removed from the nasal bridge, and lateral osteotomy, a custom-carved silicone implant, and donor rib cartilage were used to eliminate the dorsal step-off, creating a slim, straight bridge line.

Why the nasal bridge looks wide and the tip looks bulbous: how osteotomy and autologous rib cartilage correction work

A case of minimally correcting a deviated, small, and thin septum, then refining a wide nasal bridge and bulbous tip using lateral osteotomy, a custom-carved silicone implant, and autologous rib cartilage tip plasty.

Why nasal obstruction worsens when the septum collapses to one side

For a male patient presenting with a collapsed septum, severe nasal obstruction, and a drooping tip, autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction, septal extension, and rhinitis surgery were performed.

Noses with an arrow nose and bulbous tip: why we start with septal reconstruction

A clinical case in which a septum damaged from two previous surgeries and chronic nasal obstruction were restored using autologous rib cartilage reconstruction, septoplasty, rhinitis surgery, and bulbous tip correction.

Why does the nose look crooked when the osteotomy site is over-resected? Nasal bone restoration and nasal tip reconstruction

For a patient who developed an over-resected area and a crooked nose following a past osteotomy, we performed left nasal bone restoration, autologous rib cartilage septal extension, a customized silicone implant, and nasolabial angle correction.

Why the septum deviates severely and becomes damaged, and how rib cartilage reconstruction is performed

A severely deviated and damaged septum following previous surgery with a silicone implant and donor rib cartilage was reinforced and reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, completing the nasal line through septal extension and nasolabial angle correction.

Contracted nose: How contracted tissue removal and autologous rib cartilage reconstruction are performed

In a nose that became upturned and crooked due to contracture following implant surgery, fibrotic tissue was removed, the nasal tip was reconstructed with autologous rib cartilage, the columella was lowered, and the silicone implant was replaced.

What sets the limit when you want a higher nasal bridge: 3D custom implant and autologous rib cartilage tip support

To improve the nasal bridge and glabella height in balance with prominent brow bones, the existing implant was removed, and a 3D custom implant, autologous rib cartilage tip support, and nasolabial angle correction were performed.

Why we look at the facial axis first when correcting a nose with facial asymmetry

A crooked nose, influenced by facial asymmetry, a history of orbital fracture, and facial contouring surgery, was corrected to align with the central facial axis, along with clearing existing filler and refining a drooping tip and the nasolabial angle.

Why the columella looks long and how to reposition the nasal tip cartilage

Following prior surgery with a silicone implant and ear cartilage, the patient presented with a long, drooping columella and a crooked nose. The ear cartilage was replaced with autologous rib cartilage, the nasolabial angle was adjusted, and septal correction was performed.

Why an upturned nose and unilaterally pinched nostril occur, and how implant-free reconstruction is performed

An upturned nose and pinched nostril caused by multiple prior surgeries were corrected after removing artificial dermis, performing implant-free bridge augmentation with donor rib cartilage and septal cartilage, and using a skin-cartilage composite graft on the right nostril.

How to correct a small, drooping nose accompanied by nasal obstruction

To improve a small, drooping nose along with nasal obstruction from a deviated septum and rhinitis, autologous rib cartilage was used to firmly elevate the nasal tip, adjust the nasolabial angle, and correct the septum and inferior turbinates at the same time.

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 a crooked dorsal hump and drooping tip occur, and how septal extension is performed

A crooked dorsal hump, drooping tip, and nasal obstruction were refined using lateral osteotomy, septal extension with donor rib cartilage and septal cartilage, nasal tip volume refinement with ear cartilage, and nasolabial angle correction.

Why nasal tip cartilage shows through the skin and how dermis grafting reinforces it

For a nose showing cartilage show-through through thinned skin, a widened nasal bridge, and nasal obstruction 7 years after surgery, autologous dermis reinforcement, autologous rib cartilage tip plasty, lateral osteotomy, and septoplasty were performed.
