Why Gore-Tex in the nasal tip causes issues and septal reconstruction using rib cartilage

A deviated nose, implant show-through, and pinched tip caused by silicone and nasal tip Gore-Tex were resolved by removing the Gore-Tex, reconstructing the septum with autologous rib cartilage, and correcting the nasolabial angle.

Why the nasal bridge looks red after revision rhinoplasty and methods for reconstruction

Redness of the nasal bridge and a long nose that developed after two prior surgeries using autologous and donor rib cartilage were corrected through septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage, implant replacement, and nasal base correction.

Why a dorsal hump and a long nose often accompany nasal obstruction, and how they are corrected

A case involving a history of nose thread lifting, a dorsal hump, a long nose, and rhinitis symptoms, corrected with osteotomy, hump rasping, septoplasty, and inferior turbinate resection.

How to replace absorbed donor rib cartilage with autologous rib cartilage

For a patient whose nose became crooked and drooped due to partial resorption of previously placed donor rib cartilage, we removed the absorbed cartilage and performed septal reconstruction and deviated septum correction using autologous rib cartilage.
