How to correct a crooked nose and nostril asymmetry together

This is a case of a crooked nose, nostril asymmetry, and depressive dimpling from scar adhesions following repeated surgeries and alar reduction. Nasal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage and implant replacement were planned, and changes achieved through columellar repositioning and lower lateral cartilage rearrangement were documented.

How to correct nasal obstruction and nostril asymmetry together

In a revision rhinoplasty case involving intranasal mucosal synechiae, a deviated septum, and nostril asymmetry, we removed the Gore-Tex implant, performed septal reconstruction and extension with autologous rib cartilage, along with alar rim extension and silicone implant replacement.

How to correct an upturned nose and overly curved bridge after repeated surgeries

In a nose with septal damage, an upturned nose, and a high radix after 5 surgeries, the filler and silicone implant were removed, followed by septal reconstruction and extension using autologous rib cartilage and placement of a new silicone implant.

Revision rhinoplasty planning considering nasal tip skin condition and necrosis risk

This is a case of septal damage, an upturned nose, and nasal tip skin depression after multiple previous surgeries. Using a closed approach to preserve blood supply, we performed septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage along with cartilage and dermal grafts.

Removal of mesh inside the nose and autologous rib cartilage reconstruction

This was a case involving a blunt nasal tip, a high starting point at the glabella, and mesh foreign material following a previous surgery. Four pieces of mesh were removed, and septal reconstruction and extension were performed using autologous rib cartilage.

Columellar retraction and contracted nose: Anatomy and reconstruction methods

A case of severe columellar retraction and septal cartilage damage following inflammation and implant removal, corrected with autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction, deviated septum correction, and composite grafting.

How to correct the nasal tip and bridge in a sharp upturned nose

This is a case of previous surgery resulting in a deviated nasal bridge, an upturned nasal tip, nasolabial angle issues, and nasal obstruction. Using a closed approach with autologous rib cartilage, septal deviation correction, septal extension, and lateral osteotomy were performed.

Revision rhinoplasty for a contracted nose and nasal tip skin depression

For severe nasal tip skin depression and contracture deformity that developed after infection treatment, remaining Gore-Tex in the glabella was removed, followed by autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction and dermis-cartilage reinforcement.

Methods for correcting nasal deformities associated with cleft lip and palate

A case in which asymmetry, a right maxillary bone defect, and nostril floor depression resulting from cleft lip and palate were corrected by reconstructing the septum and lower lateral cartilage and augmenting the nasal floor bone using autologous rib cartilage.

How to remove mesh and reconstruct a contracted nose

In a patient presenting with post-inflammatory nasal contracture and nasal obstruction, unexpected mesh and residual donor rib cartilage found in the nasal tip were removed. The entire septum and both lower lateral cartilages were then reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage.

Closed correction method for a crooked nose, bulbous tip, and nostril asymmetry

For a patient who presented after two prior surgeries with a crooked nose, nostril asymmetry, and a bulbous tip, we performed septal reconstruction and extension using autologous rib cartilage, lateral osteotomy, silicone implant exchange, and a dermal graft to the nasal tip.

Correction methods considering the shape of contracted and upturned noses

In a male patient who developed contracture deformity, an upturned nose, and nasal obstruction after repeated surgeries, septal reconstruction and extension using autologous rib cartilage along with nostril lowering were performed via a closed approach.

How to reconstruct a nose upturned from contracture using autologous rib cartilage

Following multiple nasal surgeries and inflammation that led to contracture, an upturned nasal tip, and nostril asymmetry, autologous rib cartilage was used to extend and reconstruct the septum, creating the dorsal hump line requested by the patient.

Closed correction method for a crooked nose and nostril asymmetry

In a patient with a persistent crooked nose, nostril asymmetry, a wide nasal dorsum, and nasal obstruction after a prior rhinoplasty, autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction, osteotomies, and inferior turbinate resection were performed without an implant.
