Before-and-after comparison

Why cleft lip and palate revision rhinoplasty is challenging and methods for rib cartilage reconstruction

To improve a wide nose and drooping tip in a patient with a history of cleft lip and palate surgery, autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction, nasal tip elevation, nasal sill reduction, and inferior turbinate surgery were performed.

Why a wide nasal bridge and upturned nasal tip develop, and how rib cartilage reconstruction is performed — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why a wide nasal bridge and upturned nasal tip develop, and how rib cartilage reconstruction is performed

For a wide nasal bridge and an upturned nasal tip resulting from repeated surgeries and nasal bridge thread-lifting procedures, foreign material was removed, lateral osteotomy was performed, and septal reconstruction was carried out by recycling existing autologous rib cartilage and supplementing with donor rib cartilage.

Before-and-after comparison

Why old silicone implants cause deformity and pain, and how rib cartilage reconstruction is performed

For nasal deformity, dorsal pain, and nasal obstruction caused by an old implant, septoplasty and autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction were performed to improve the columella and nostrils.

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.

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.

Why nostril asymmetry and stenosis occur, and how rib cartilage reconstruction and Z-plasty are performed — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why nostril asymmetry and stenosis occur, and how rib cartilage reconstruction and Z-plasty are performed

For nostril asymmetry and stenosis following alar and philtrum reduction, septal reconstruction and extension using autologous rib cartilage, Z-plasty, and dermal grafting were performed.

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.

Why contracture and septal perforation occur after old Gore-Tex, and how reconstruction is performed — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why contracture and septal perforation occur after old Gore-Tex, and how reconstruction is performed

To resolve contracture, septal perforation, and cartilage loss that occurred after Gore-Tex surgery performed long ago, the septum was reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage and the perforation was closed.

Why the septum is damaged and rhinitis recurs after double jaw surgery — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why the septum is damaged and rhinitis recurs after double jaw surgery

We reconstructed the septum damaged by double jaw surgery using autologous rib cartilage, and combined rhinitis surgery, right alar reduction, and lateral osteotomy to create a straight bridge line.

What to look for when nasal bone asymmetry and a drooping tip coincide with chronic rhinitis — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

What to look for when nasal bone asymmetry and a drooping tip coincide with chronic rhinitis

Nasal bone asymmetry, chronic rhinitis, and a drooping nasal tip were corrected through lateral osteotomy, septal reconstruction using donor rib cartilage, and adjustment of the silicone implant.

Why Gore-Tex in the nasal tip causes issues and septal reconstruction using rib cartilage — Before-and-after comparison
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 Medpor extrudes through the nasal mucosa, and how removal and reconstruction are performed — Before-and-after comparison
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.

Why the nasal bridge lowers and widens as artificial dermis is absorbed — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why the nasal bridge lowers and widens as artificial dermis is absorbed

After identifying a lowered, widened nasal bridge and septal damage caused by artificial dermis absorption, I removed the residual dermis and reconstructed the septum with donor rib cartilage to restore bridge height.

Why the nose looks crooked after dorsal hump surgery, and how septal reconstruction is performed — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why the nose looks crooked after dorsal hump surgery, and how septal reconstruction is performed

A crooked nose and deviated septum that developed after dorsal hump correction were improved by removing the existing donor rib cartilage, reconstructing the septum with autologous rib cartilage, and performing submucosal resection of the inferior turbinate.

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.

Why contracture and nasal obstruction develop together after multiple rhinoplasties, and how reconstruction is performed

A case involving a patient who experienced septal cartilage damage, an upturned nasal tip, and severe nasal obstruction after 8 surgeries over 15 years, where the septum was reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage and reinforced with dermis.
