Revision rhinoplasty for nostril asymmetry and a flared nose

Following a history of double-jaw surgery and rhinoplasty, the anterior nasal spine had been resected, resulting in nostril asymmetry and nasal obstruction. The septum and lower lateral cartilages were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, along with silicone implant exchange and nasal sill reduction.

How to correct a short and upturned nose

A case of a short, upturned nose and residual semi-permanent filler following two-jaw surgery. Suspecting septal damage, reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage was planned. Here are the surgical details of the reconstruction and tip surgery, along with changes in the nasolabial angle and nostril show.

How to correct a nose that has widened from fillers

A case correcting a nasal bridge and nasal tip that became wide and blunt after 5 nasal filler treatments. After dissolving and removing the filler, lateral osteotomy, silicone implant placement, and nasal tip correction using autologous rib cartilage were performed.

How to correct a small, short, upturned nose

In a short, upturned nose with insufficient skin, a support was built using autologous rib cartilage to sufficiently lower the nasal tip, and a silicone implant was used to smoothly connect the nasal bridge.

Methods for correcting an arrow-shaped nose and crooked nose

This case addresses nasal obstruction along with a long, drooping arrow-shaped nose and a crooked nasal bridge. Surgery on the septum and inferior turbinate, along with osteotomy and cartilage reinforcement, was planned, and changes in bridge curvature and tip drooping were documented after surgery.

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 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.
