Why nostrils narrow after illegal injections by unlicensed practitioners, and methods for removal and reconstruction

In a patient who developed nostril stenosis and a drooping tip from illegal injections administered by an unlicensed practitioner 20 years ago, we removed the foreign material and reconstructed the septum and lower lateral cartilage using autologous rib cartilage to improve the nasal shape.

Nose with remaining filler and threads: how much can rib cartilage reconstruction achieve after removal?

To improve nasal bridge asymmetry and a blunt nasal shape resulting from nose filler and thread-lifting procedures, the foreign materials were removed, and tip support structures were established using donor rib cartilage and septal cartilage.

Why nostril asymmetry and an upturned tip remain after alar reduction and how to correct them

A revision rhinoplasty case where nostril asymmetry, an upturned nasal tip, and an implant step-off visible after alar reduction were corrected through structural reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage, silicone implant replacement, and nasolabial angle correction.

Nasal bone fractures: When cosmetic surgery can be combined and how to stage the procedure

To correct a traumatic nasal bone fracture and a deviated nasal tip, closed reduction and autologous rib cartilage septal extension were performed without an implant, with plans to adjust the nasal bridge height after an observation period.

Why nostrils show excessively in an upturned nose, and how to correct nasal tip position

A clinical case improving excessive nostril show, a wide nasal bridge, and an upturned nose deformity through lower lateral cartilage repositioning, nasal tip repositioning, dorsal hump rasping, and inferior turbinate resection.

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.

Why the nose becomes bulbous after filler and thread lifts: Foreign body removal and nasal tip correction methods

A case where a bulbous nose and deviated septum after Hiko threads and nasal filler were improved through removal of the Hiko threads and filler, nasal tip reconstruction using donor rib cartilage and septal cartilage, and nasolabial angle correction.

Why the nose becomes upturned and shortened after illegal injection procedures, and how foreign body removal and reconstruction are performed

A case where purulent foreign material injected into the nasal bridge during an illegal procedure was removed, contracted skin was released, and an upturned nasal tip and bridge line were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage and a silicone implant.

Why replacing a cartilage nasal tip with an L-shaped silicone implant causes problems

A case where a previously replaced L-shaped silicone implant was removed, the nasal tip was reconstructed with autologous rib cartilage, and the nasal bridge was replaced with an I-shaped implant to correct an upturned nose and a tilted columella.

Why the nose looks spread after nose filler without dissolving it, and how to create a slim line

For a nasal bridge that became wide and crooked after filler injections, accompanied by a dorsal hump and bulbous tip, a combined procedure was performed consisting of lateral osteotomy, tip elevation using autologous rib cartilage, hump rasping, nasal sill reduction, and rhinitis surgery.

Why the nasal bridge sinks and widens after implant removal, and how to reconstruct it

Depression and widening of the nasal bridge, along with a crooked nose and bulbous tip that developed after implant removal, were refined through structural nasal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage, nasal bridge augmentation with a silicone implant, tip refinement, and correction of the nasolabial angle.

Why the nasal dorsum appears depressed and the tip looks bulbous after dorsal hump reduction, and how to correct it without implants

To improve a bulbous nasal tip, residual hump sensation, and asymmetry without silicone implants, autologous rib cartilage was used to elevate the nasal bridge and dorsal line, combined with cartilage repositioning, cartilage binding, and nasolabial angle correction.

Why nasal bridge and tip show-through happens after old silicone rhinoplasty: dermal reinforcement and rib cartilage reconstruction

To resolve show-through of an L-shaped silicone implant and cartilage beneath thinned skin, we removed the previous silicone implant, reinforced the skin with dermis, adjusted the tip height, reconstructed the nasal tip with autologous rib cartilage, and replaced the implant with a new one.
