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.

Why nasal obstruction and a crooked nose can persist even after multiple surgeries

In a case of ongoing nasal obstruction with a weakened, deviated septum following multiple surgeries, structural integrity and nasal breathing were improved through septal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage, lateral osteotomy, septoplasty, and turbinoplasty.

Why the nasal tip looks spread out and how to address the nasal sill and nasolabial angle together

For a wide nasal tip and nasal sill, residual filler, and a deviated septum, we removed the filler and performed donor rib cartilage tip correction, nasal sill reduction, nasolabial angle correction, septoplasty, and rhinitis surgery.

Why nostrils narrow and breathing becomes difficult after philtrum reduction, and how to correct it

For leftward nasal asymmetry, deviation, and breathing discomfort caused by narrowed nostrils following philtrum reduction, lateral osteotomy, nasolabial angle correction, and nostril skin grafting were performed.

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.

When tip skin is lacking after alar and philtrum reduction, how to determine the elevation limit

In a patient with limited skin elasticity and mucosal adhesion following multiple nasal surgeries along with alar and philtrum reductions, we performed septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage, nasolabial angle correction, columellar extension, and nasal synechia adhesiolysis.

A small, short, and upturned nose: why it should not be raised excessively

A case of a short, upturned, small nose with no prior rhinoplasty. Considering the skin tension, septal extension was performed using autologous rib cartilage, combined with functional surgery for the septum and turbinates.

How rib cartilage reconstruction is done when the septum is damaged after multiple surgeries

A case where a septal defect and filler-induced deformity were identified after five prior surgeries. Following filler removal, the septum was reconstructed with autologous rib cartilage, and the nasal tip was reinforced using existing deep temporal fascia.

Why a bulbous, drooping nose makes the midface look long, and reconstruction methods using calcified rib cartilage

A case involving an implant from 17 years ago, residual filler, and a long, drooping nasal tip. Calcified autologous rib cartilage was harvested to correct the nasolabial angle and lower the radix starting point.

How a fractured nasal bone alters the nose after trauma, and how reduction and reconstruction are performed

A case involving a traumatic nasal bone fracture and damage to the right cartilage. Closed reduction of the nasal bone and donor rib cartilage reconstruction were performed alongside procedures to improve facial balance.

Why nasal tip skin thins and cartilage shows through, and how skin reinforcement is done

A case of skin thinning, cartilage show-through, and an upturned nose following contracted nose surgery. The skin was reinforced with dermis and autologous rib perichondrium, along with septal extension.

Why the nose looks wide and bulbous, and how to correct it with septal cartilage and ear cartilage

A case of a wide, bulbous nasal tip and asymmetry with no prior surgical history. Autologous septal and ear cartilage were used to construct a support strut, and septal and turbinate surgery were performed concurrently.

Why an autologous dermal graft absorbs, leading to a widened bridge and upturned nose, and how to correct it

A case of an upturned nose and widened bridge caused by dermal graft absorption. After removing nasal filler placed 2 years ago, a straight bridge line was established through septal extension, alar rim lowering, and correction of the depressed dorsum.

Why the columella droops and nostrils become visible: correcting a crooked nose and nostril asymmetry

A case of a drooping columella, crooked nose, and nostril show following prior filler, Misko, and silicone rhinoplasty. Autologous rib cartilage reconstruction and alar rim grafts were performed after implant removal.

Why the nasal tip droops and spreads when smiling after rhinoplasty: foreign material removal and tip correction methods

A case of nasal tip drooping, a pinched look, and tip spreading after nasal filler injection and silicone rhinoplasty 7 years ago. Foreign materials and the silicone implant were removed, and the nasolabial angle was corrected while reinforcing tip support.
