How to simultaneously correct a dorsal hump and nasal tip shape

A bumpy nasal bridge, bulbous nose, and dorsal hump caused by residual filler from past injections were smoothly corrected using closed filler removal and septal extension with donor rib cartilage.

Before-and-after comparison

Surgical approach for an upturned and crooked nose

This is a case of correcting a crooked nasal bridge and an upturned nose after two prior surgeries. Using a closed approach, the existing silicone implant and foreign material were removed, the nasal bridge and nasal tip were reconstructed with autologous rib cartilage, and nostril lowering was performed simultaneously.

Reconstruction method for an upturned and crooked nose after repeated surgeries

Following multiple rhinoplasties, the patient presented with an upturned nasal tip, septal damage, protruding columellar cartilage, and nasal obstruction. Tip reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage, septoplasty, and submucosal resection of the inferior turbinate were performed through a closed approach.

Correcting asymmetry and function in a small, upturned nose with thin skin

This is a revision case involving thin skin, an upturned nose, and nostril asymmetry following a prior surgery. The septum was reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, combined with artificial dermis reinforcement, alar rim elongation, and septoplasty.

How to correct a long nose and wide nose

This is a case where a long, wide nose and drooping tip were naturally improved. Lateral osteotomy was performed using a closed approach, and septal extension and lower lateral cartilage suturing were carried out using donor rib cartilage and septal cartilage.

How to correct a pinched nose and nostril asymmetry

A case correcting pinched alae, an upturned nose, and nostril asymmetry following previous surgeries. Using a closed approach, septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage, lower lateral cartilage reconstruction, alar rim grafting (lowering the alar rim), and dermis grafting were performed.

Before-and-after comparison

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.

Rhinoplasty method after foreign material (mesh and thread) removal

A case of a patient who presented with a crooked nasal bridge, dorsal hump, and high radix after previous surgery using mesh and threads. Through a closed approach, the foreign materials were removed, and lateral osteotomy along with autologous rib cartilage reconstruction of the nasal tip and bridge was performed.

Anatomy and correction methods for a blunt bulbous nose

In a case where nasal tip depression and a blunt bulbous nose occurred following past filler and injection procedures, remaining filler was removed, and lateral osteotomy, septal extension using donor rib cartilage, and silicone implant placement were performed through a closed approach.

How to correct a crooked nose and a bulbous, drooping nasal tip

A crooked nose with a drooping, bulbous tip and a high radix following multiple surgeries was corrected using autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction and extension, radix lowering, and rhinitis surgery.

Revision rhinoplasty approach for a long nose and high radix after repeated surgeries

A long nose, high radix, and columellar depression that developed after multiple prior surgeries were corrected by removing previous foreign material, reconstructing the septum with donor rib cartilage, and carving a silicone implant.

Correction methods for a bulbous, deviated, and upturned nose

A high radix, bulbous nose, deviated nose, and upturned nose were corrected via a closed approach using autologous rib cartilage septal extension, septoplasty, lowering of the radix, and nasolabial angle adjustment.

Revision rhinoplasty methods for correcting a short, upturned nose

Nasal obstruction, a pinched look, and an upturned nose that developed after ear cartilage suturing and filler injection were corrected with foreign material removal, autologous rib cartilage septal extension, and cartilage repositioning.

Rhinoplasty methods following foreign material removal

Through a closed approach, complex filler and thread foreign materials accumulated over a prolonged period were removed, and the nasal structure was corrected using autologous rib cartilage for tip reconstruction, lateral osteotomy, and lowering the columella.

Before-and-after comparison

Surgical approach for a collapsed nose caused by septal cartilage damage

In a nose where most of the septum and alar cartilages were lost after two previous surgeries, we reconstructed the overall framework using autologous rib cartilage, removed contracture tissue, and corrected the nasolabial angle.

How to lower a high radix

In a patient presenting with an excessively high radix, a drooping tip, and nasal obstruction, a closed approach was used to lower the starting point, reconstruct the nasal tip using autologous rib cartilage, and perform septoplasty.

How to correct a dorsal hump and crooked nose

This is a case of a dorsal hump with a large skeletal framework and a high radix, accompanied by nasal deviation and a drooping tip. Considering facial proportions, the surgery was completed without implants, and changes in the dorsal hump, columella, and tip shape were documented.
