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 nasal tip cartilage shows through the skin and how dermis grafting reinforces it

For a nose showing cartilage show-through through thinned skin, a widened nasal bridge, and nasal obstruction 7 years after surgery, autologous dermis reinforcement, autologous rib cartilage tip plasty, lateral osteotomy, and septoplasty were performed.

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.

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.

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.

How rib cartilage reconstruction is done when the septum is damaged after multiple surgeries — Before-and-after comparison
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.

Before-and-after comparison

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.

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 an L-shaped silicone implant can nearly perforate the columellar mucosa: removal and reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage

We removed an L-shaped silicone implant that was at imminent risk of perforating the left columellar mucosa, then reconstructed the contracted nose using autologous rib cartilage for septal extension and autologous dermis for tip reinforcement.

Before-and-after comparison

Why cartilage shows through after multiple rhinoplasties and how to restore the mucosa and structure

A case where autologous rib cartilage was used to reinforce soft tissue, reconstruct nasal structure, and perform functional surgery to improve mucosal thinning, lateral cartilage show-through, and nostril asymmetry resulting from repeated surgeries.

Slight lack of height and subtle asymmetry remaining after rhinoplasty: Why they occur and how they are refined

After a stable primary surgery, reinforcement using autologous rib cartilage, septal reconstruction, and nasolabial angle correction were performed to add height and correct subtle bilateral asymmetry.

Septal perforation and nasal tip cartilage show-through after repeated rhinoplasties: how reconstruction is performed

A case where autologous rib cartilage was used for full septal reconstruction alongside dermis grafting to address repeated surgical history, septal perforation, and thinned nasal tip skin.

Before-and-after comparison

Why donor dermis absorbs after multiple revision surgeries and how to reconstruct the septum

For a patient who experienced partial absorption of donor dermis on the nasal bridge and septal damage after multiple revision surgeries, the donor dermis was removed, the septum was reconstructed with autologous rib cartilage, and the skin was reinforced with retroauricular dermis.

Why nasal tip cartilage shows through the skin and turns upward: reinforcement and reconstruction methods

For a patient presenting with visible nasal tip cartilage and an upturned nose following previous surgery with a silicone implant and ear cartilage, we performed silicone implant removal, septal extension using autologous rib cartilage, fat grafting, and skin reinforcement with donor dermis.

Before-and-after comparison

Why long-standing contracted noses and crooked noses occur together, and how reconstruction is performed

A case correcting a contracted nose, crooked nose, and pinched nostrils that developed after repeated surgeries, using silicone implant and scar tissue removal, nasal tip reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage, alar reconstruction with ear cartilage, and dermal grafting.

Nasal bridge depression and nostril asymmetry after multiple rhinoplasties: causes and reconstruction methods

A case where nasal bridge depression caused by skin necrosis and severe septal damage were improved with septal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage, cartilage and acellular dermal matrix grafts, and submucosal resection of the inferior turbinate.

Why nostrils appear triangular in an upturned nose, and how to correct nostril shape

To address an upturned nose, excessive nostril show, and a high radix resulting from multiple rhinoplasty procedures over an extended period, nostril-lowering surgery with composite cartilage and skin grafting was performed alongside functional nasal surgery.

Why the alae become pinched and the tip collapses after nasal tip inflammation, and methods for reconstruction

A case of improving right alar pinching and depression caused by repeated surgeries and nasal tip inflammation using autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction, nostril elongation, and a skin graft.
