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.

Surgical approach to reconstructing a contracted nose after severe inflammation and partial skin necrosis of the nasal tip

This is a case of recurrent inflammation leading to partial skin necrosis, a depressed scar, and contracture deformity of the nasal tip. After stem cell therapy, revision surgery was performed with a surgical plan including septal reconstruction, lowering the nostril rims, and dermal grafting.

Surgical method for correcting a drooping nose (implant-free)

This is a case of implant-free rhinoplasty addressing a mild dorsal hump, a long, drooping tip, and an apparently crooked nasal bridge. Donor rib cartilage was partially filled along the nasal bridge, and the postoperative changes in the nasal tip, nasolabial angle, and nasal bridge line 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 drooping tip, dorsal hump, and crooked nose with autologous rib cartilage

This is a case of a patient concerned about a dorsal hump, a drooping tip, and a crooked nasal bridge. Considering the patient's existing bridge height and thick skin, the plan was adjusted during surgery to shape the nasal bridge by filling in the deficient areas with 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.

Surgical methods for correcting a crooked nose and dorsal hump

This is a case of a patient who visited due to nasal obstruction and a crooked nose, in whom leftward septal deviation and a narrowed nasal cavity were identified. Lateral osteotomy was used to correct the crooked nasal bones, and septal and inferior turbinate surgery was planned to address the nasal obstruction.

No-implant correction method for a large, wide dorsal hump and drooping tip

A congenitally large, high dorsal hump and drooping tip were corrected and smoothly connected without implants through precise nasal bone rasping and cartilage grafting.

Closed approach correction of a dorsal hump and nasal tip

To correct a progressively upturning nose, dorsal hump, nostril asymmetry, and nasal obstruction, revision rhinoplasty using autologous rib cartilage was performed alongside functional nasal surgery through a closed approach.

Closed correction method for a crooked nose, nasal bridge, and nasal tip using autologous rib cartilage

In a 4th revision rhinoplasty, a pinched nose, crooked nose, and drooping tip were corrected using autologous rib cartilage through a closed approach with nostril rim elongation and lowering of the columella.

Surgical techniques for correcting a dorsal hump, crooked nose, bulbous tip, and nostril asymmetry

To correct a dorsal hump, drooping tip, crooked nose, and nostril asymmetry, we performed osteotomy, septal correction, lower lateral cartilage repositioning, and functional nasal surgery together.
