How to correct a bulbous, drooping nose

For a drooping, bulbous nose caused by glabella filler and bony asymmetry, the filler was removed, and refinement was achieved through lateral osteotomy, septal extension, and a thin silicone implant.

How to lower the radix and columella together

This is a case of a patient who visited the clinic to improve a high radix and the shape of the nasal tip and columella. We planned to adjust both the radix and nasal tip, and documented the changes in the columellar line and nostril asymmetry after surgery.

Reconstruction methods for a nose contracted after multiple surgeries

In a severe contracted nose that developed after a history of 27 surgeries and fat graft procedures, the protruding silicone implant and degenerated tissue were removed, and the septum and structural support were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage.

How to reconstruct a columella retracted by contracture

Loss of the septum and retraction of the columella caused by inflammation and contracture were restored with three-dimensional definition through total autologous rib cartilage reconstruction and lowering the columella.

How to correct a bulbous and wide nose

This is a case addressing a depressed, flattened nasal tip, a crooked nasal bridge, and nasal obstruction. We planned nasal tip cartilage reinforcement, osteotomy, and rhinitis surgery. This record details correcting a weak septum during surgery and the changes observed following nasal sill reduction.

How to correct an upturned contracted nose with autologous rib cartilage

In a patient presenting with contracture, an upturned nose, and loss of lower lateral cartilages due to inflammation after previous surgery, we performed septal and alar cartilage reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage combined with stem cell therapy and alar rim lowering.

How is bulbous nose rhinoplasty performed?

To correct a low, flat glabella, a wide and bulbous nasal tip, a drooping tip, and nasal asymmetry, we planned and performed partial subcutaneous tissue removal, lower lateral cartilage suturing, robust tip projection, and dorsal bridge augmentation.

How to improve a bulbous nose and a protruding mouth

This is a case of a patient with a history of two-jaw surgery, a bulbous nasal tip, a wide nasal sill (nostril floor), and asymmetry. Considering the possibility of detachment of the septal base, reconstruction was planned, and changes in the nasal tip, nasolabial angle, and nasal sill were documented.

Methods for correcting an arrow-shaped nose and long nose

A long, drooping arrow-shaped nose and dorsal hump were refined through osteotomy and implant replacement, while septal extension using autologous rib cartilage and nasal sill reduction improved the nasolabial angle and nostril asymmetry.

Will correcting a crooked nose improve facial asymmetry?

This case presented facial asymmetry accompanied by a nose deviated to the right, a bulbous nasal tip, and a dorsal hump. Osteotomy and septal repositioning were planned, and notes taken immediately after surgery record changes in the deviation and the drooping tip.

How to correct a long nose by lowering the radix

The excessively high Gore-Tex implant was removed from the glabella, the radix was lowered to the pupil line, and the septum and retracted columella were corrected using autologous rib cartilage.

Revision rhinoplasty with autologous rib cartilage and columella correction for a long nose and dorsal hump

This is a case of a patient concerned about a nose that still looked long due to a residual dorsal hump and a drooping tip even after a previous surgery. The nasal bone and upper lateral cartilage were refined, the nasal tip and columella were corrected, and a thin silicone implant was placed to cover irregularities.

Correction of a bulbous nose, wide nasal spread, and drooping tip using autologous rib cartilage

This is a case of a bulbous nose with thick skin, a widely spread nasal tip, and a drooping appearance. Subcutaneous soft tissue reduction, cartilage repositioning, and a nasal bridge implant were planned, and during the actual surgery, correction of the nasolabial angle improved the bulbous impression.

Revision rhinoplasty with autologous rib cartilage for bulbous tip, crooked nose, and nostril asymmetry

This is a case of a bulbous nose with thick skin, scar tissue in the nasal tip, and an implant deviated to the right. Removal of scar tissue, reconstruction and repositioning of the lower lateral (alar) cartilage, and nasal tip plasty using autologous rib cartilage were performed, with lateral osteotomy planned.

Autologous rib cartilage revision rhinoplasty and nostril correction for an upturned and crooked nose

A case involving nostril asymmetry and excessive nostril show after previous implant removal due to inflammation. Depending on the cartilage condition, autologous rib cartilage reconstruction, lateral osteotomy, and nostril rim extension were planned, documented with photos taken immediately after surgery.

Revision rhinoplasty using autologous rib cartilage for an upturned nose from contracture and nostril asymmetry

A case presenting with a short, upturned nasal tip and nostril asymmetry following a history of silicone implant inflammation. The damaged lower lateral cartilage and septum were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, and replacement of the Gore-Tex implant was included in the surgical plan.
