Why a dorsal hump often comes with nasal obstruction, and how it is corrected using only autologous rib cartilage — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why a dorsal hump often comes with nasal obstruction, and how it is corrected using only autologous rib cartilage

For a severe dorsal hump, drooping tip, and nasal obstruction, septal reconstruction and bridge augmentation with autologous rib cartilage, lateral osteotomy, and submucosal resection of the inferior turbinate were performed.

Before-and-after comparison

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.

Before-and-after comparison

Why repeat rhinoplasty thins the nasal tip skin causing cartilage show-through, and how autologous dermis reinforcement helps

To resolve thinned nasal tip skin and cartilage show-through caused by repeated surgeries, retroauricular autologous dermis grafting, lateral osteotomy, and columellar elevation were performed.

Why bulbous and flared tips persist after revision rhinoplasty: How reconstruction is performed using autologous rib cartilage

To restore septal support weakened by prior surgery and address a bulbous, flared nasal tip, we performed septal reconstruction and septal extension using autologous rib cartilage.

Before-and-after comparison

Why nostril stenosis develops after alar reduction and philtrum reduction, and how to reconstruct it

To address left nostril stenosis and cartilage damage after alar reduction, septal and alar reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage was performed alongside an intranasal rotational flap.

Before-and-after comparison

Why Gore-Tex in the nasal tip causes issues and septal reconstruction using rib cartilage

A deviated nose, implant show-through, and pinched tip caused by silicone and nasal tip Gore-Tex were resolved by removing the Gore-Tex, reconstructing the septum with autologous rib cartilage, and correcting the nasolabial angle.

Why an old silicone implant shows through at the nasal tip, and methods for removal and reconstruction — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why an old silicone implant shows through at the nasal tip, and methods for removal and reconstruction

Implant show-through at the nasal tip and chronic rhinitis symptoms following an old silicone implant placement were addressed through implant removal, reconstruction of the septum and nasal tip cartilage, and rhinitis surgery.

Why Silitex implants show through and how to reconstruct after removal — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why Silitex implants show through and how to reconstruct after removal

Upturned nostrils and implant show-through following Silitex insertion were improved by completely removing the implant, elevating the nasal tip with autologous rib cartilage, replacing the bridge implant with silicone, and performing facial fat grafting.

Before-and-after comparison

Why Medpor extrudes through the nasal mucosa, and how removal and reconstruction are performed

The extruded Medpor and damaged tissue protruding into the nasal cavity were removed, and the septum along with the missing lower lateral cartilage was reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage to treat asymmetry and inflammation.

Before-and-after comparison

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.

Before-and-after comparison

Why nasal threads and fat grafting fail to create a defined line: foreign body removal and rib cartilage reconstruction

A case where foreign material was removed after dissatisfaction with thread lifting and fat grafting alongside a deviated septum, creating a straight bridge line with autologous rib cartilage and relieving nasal obstruction.

Why dorsal humps and crooked noses often cause nasal obstruction, and how to address them with combined correction

A case combining a dorsal hump, crooked nose, and hypertrophic rhinitis addressed with osteotomy, hump reduction, septoplasty, and submucosal resection of the inferior turbinates.

Why a thick columella and upturned nasal tip develop, and how autologous rib cartilage reconstruction is performed

A case of an upturned nose with septal damage and contracture deformity from repeated surgeries, where the septum and lower lateral cartilages were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage along with columellar width correction.

Aged nasal implants and nasal pain: key points to evaluate in revision rhinoplasty

A case in an older patient with a 50-year history of repeated surgeries, nasal pain, and a crooked nose deformity, where the previous cartilage causing the pain was removed and the nose was reconstructed using donor rib cartilage.

Structure and correction methods for a short and upturned nose

This case involved a small, upturned nasal tip, excessive nostril show, and rhinitis. Using partially calcified autologous rib cartilage, we performed septal extension, submucosal resection of the inferior turbinates, and nasolabial angle correction.
