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 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 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 a wide nose often comes with nasal obstruction: Correction using osteotomy and autologous rib cartilage

For a wide nose, bulbous tip, crooked nose, and deviated septum, lateral osteotomy, autologous rib cartilage septal extension, bridge augmentation, septal and inferior turbinate surgery, and autologous fat grafting were performed.

Why the nose turns up, the columella retracts, and the tip looks pinched: how composite correction is performed

For an upturned nose, retracted columella, pinched tip, and nostril asymmetry following repeated surgeries, columellar reconstruction, pinched tip correction, septoplasty, and submucosal resection of the inferior turbinate were performed.

Why a crooked nose and irregular dorsum occur: implant removal and reconstruction methods

We removed the premaxillary ("cat") implant and irregularly placed ear cartilage from previous surgeries, then refined the crooked nose and radix line using a dermal graft, lateral osteotomy, and autologous rib cartilage septal extension.

Before-and-after comparison

Why bulbous nose, nostril asymmetry, and nasal obstruction occur together, and how straight bridge line correction is performed

A case where a blunt, wide nasal tip, a columella tilted to the right, and nasal obstruction were refined into a natural straight bridge line through bulbous tip correction, nasolabial angle improvement, and septoplasty.

Before-and-after comparison

Why rhinitis symptoms recur after surgery, and how to correct a crooked nose at the same time

Following prior surgery for rhinitis and a deviated septum, the patient experienced a recurrence of symptoms along with nasal deviation and nostril asymmetry, which were improved through autologous rib cartilage septal extension, lateral osteotomy, and mucosal synechia adhesiolysis.

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.

How to address a widened nose and nasal obstruction left by multiple filler injections

A case where a widened nasal bridge, upturned nasal tip, and deviated septum resulting from repeated filler procedures were improved together through filler removal, donor rib cartilage septal extension, and septoplasty.

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.
