Why the nose flattens and widens after double-jaw surgery, and septal reconstruction — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why the nose flattens and widens after double-jaw surgery, and septal reconstruction

After double-jaw surgery weakened the septum, the nose became lower and wider; we reinforced it through septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage and completed a smooth profile using a customized silicone implant.

Why Medpor causes loss of the anterior septum: removal and autologous rib cartilage reconstruction

In a nose where the anterior septum was severely damaged by Medpor, foreign materials were removed, and septal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage, silicone implant replacement, nasal sill reduction, and functional nasal surgery were performed.

Before-and-after comparison

Why a bulbous nose looks blunt and wide, and how to create tip definition

For a blunt, wide bulbous nose and drooping tip following nasal filler injections, we performed filler removal, created a tip support structure using autologous rib cartilage, reinforced the septum, and thinned the skin.

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
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.

Before-and-after comparison

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.

Before-and-after comparison

What problems arise with a septal perforation, and how is it reconstructed?

In a case where a 15×10 mm septal perforation and cartilage damage occurred after previous surgery, the perforation was closed with a skin graft and structural support was restored by reconstructing the septum with autologous rib cartilage.

Changes caused by semi-permanent bridge filler and septal reconstruction after removal

For Artecoll semi-permanent filler on the nasal bridge, a damaged septum, an upturned nasal tip, and nostril asymmetry, foreign material was completely removed, followed by septal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage and alar rim lowering.

Contracture causing the nose to harden and shorten after previous surgery: why it occurs and how it is reconstructed

For capsular contracture, septal damage, and asymmetric nasal bones following previous surgery, the implant and capsule were removed, and septal reconstruction, lateral osteotomy, and nasal bridge augmentation with autologous rib cartilage were performed.

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.

Before-and-after comparison

A nose with almost no septal cartilage left: why the nasal tip cannot be elevated

A case where the septal support was largely lost from previous surgeries, resulting in nostril asymmetry. The central support was reconstructed with autologous rib cartilage, and the nasal tip was elevated with dermis and cartilage grafts.

Before-and-after comparison

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 — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

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.

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.

Foreign materials from illegal procedures in the nasal bridge: how to perform removal and total septal reconstruction

We removed foreign materials from illegal injections in the nasal bridge, completely reconstructed the cartilage-depleted septum using autologous rib cartilage, and performed dermal grafting on the thinned skin.

Why a depressed nasal bone on one side makes the nose look crooked: Osteotomy reconstruction and septal reconstruction

A crooked nose and facial asymmetry caused by a depressed right nasal bone and deviated septum were corrected using osteotomy along with septal reconstruction and extension using autologous rib cartilage.

Why the nose looks long and the columella deviates: how septal extension and reconstruction are performed

To improve an elongated-looking nose, nostril asymmetry, and a deviated columella, we performed autologous rib cartilage septal extension, septal reconstruction, and alar base width correction together.

Why the nasal tip turns upward and nostril show increases years after rhinoplasty: Medpor removal and autologous dermis reconstruction

To resolve an upturned nose and nostril asymmetry resulting from surgery performed 13 years ago, adhered Medpor was carefully dissected and removed, and the septum was reconstructed using autologous dermis.

Short and upturned nose with insufficient septal cartilage: how to lengthen it with rib cartilage reinforcement

A short, upturned nose caused by septal cartilage deficiency from a previous surgery was corrected with septal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage, combined with chin filler removal and receding chin correction.
