Why donor dermis absorbs after multiple revision surgeries and how to reconstruct the septum

For a patient who experienced partial absorption of donor dermis on the nasal bridge and septal damage after multiple revision surgeries, the donor dermis was removed, the septum was reconstructed with autologous rib cartilage, and the skin was reinforced with retroauricular dermis.

Nose with remaining filler and threads: how much can rib cartilage reconstruction achieve after removal?

To improve nasal bridge asymmetry and a blunt nasal shape resulting from nose filler and thread-lifting procedures, the foreign materials were removed, and tip support structures were established using donor rib cartilage and septal cartilage.

Why nostrils show excessively in an upturned nose, and how to correct nasal tip position

A clinical case improving excessive nostril show, a wide nasal bridge, and an upturned nose deformity through lower lateral cartilage repositioning, nasal tip repositioning, dorsal hump rasping, and inferior turbinate resection.

Why the nose becomes bulbous after filler and thread lifts: Foreign body removal and nasal tip correction methods

A case where a bulbous nose and deviated septum after Hiko threads and nasal filler were improved through removal of the Hiko threads and filler, nasal tip reconstruction using donor rib cartilage and septal cartilage, and nasolabial angle correction.

How to achieve height and a straight bridge line in a nose with thick, inelastic tip skin

A case where a straight bridge line was created in a bulbous, upturned nose with thick, inelastic skin through septal extension using autologous rib cartilage and nasolabial angle correction.

Before-and-after comparison

Why replacing a cartilage nasal tip with an L-shaped silicone implant causes problems

A case where a previously replaced L-shaped silicone implant was removed, the nasal tip was reconstructed with autologous rib cartilage, and the nasal bridge was replaced with an I-shaped implant to correct an upturned nose and a tilted columella.

Preoperative condition

Why a bulbous nose, wide nasal base, and drooping tip occur together and how to create a slimmer nasal line — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why a bulbous nose, wide nasal base, and drooping tip occur together and how to create a slimmer nasal line

A case in which nasal tip plasty with autologous rib cartilage, lateral osteotomy, nasal floor reduction, and nasolabial angle correction were performed together to correct a blunt bulbous nose, wide nasal base, and crooked nasal bridge.

Preoperative condition

Before-and-after comparison

Why the nasal bridge sinks and widens after implant removal, and how to reconstruct it

Depression and widening of the nasal bridge, along with a crooked nose and bulbous tip that developed after implant removal, were refined through structural nasal reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage, nasal bridge augmentation with a silicone implant, tip refinement, and correction of the nasolabial angle.

Why the nasal dorsum appears depressed and the tip looks bulbous after dorsal hump reduction, and how to correct it without implants — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why the nasal dorsum appears depressed and the tip looks bulbous after dorsal hump reduction, and how to correct it without implants

To improve a bulbous nasal tip, residual hump sensation, and asymmetry without silicone implants, autologous rib cartilage was used to elevate the nasal bridge and dorsal line, combined with cartilage repositioning, cartilage binding, and nasolabial angle correction.

Preoperative condition

Before-and-after comparison

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.

Preoperative condition

Why the nasal tip looks spread out and lacks dimension, and how bulbous nose correction is performed — Before-and-after comparison
Before-and-after comparison

Why the nasal tip looks spread out and lacks dimension, and how bulbous nose correction is performed

To improve a wide nasal bridge, a blunt nasal tip, nostril asymmetry, and nasal obstruction, partial removal of subcutaneous tissue, lower lateral cartilage repositioning, cartilage suturing, and nasal tip height adjustment were performed in stages.

Preoperative condition

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 bulbous nose, short nose, and retracted columella appear together and how to build tip definition

To correct a severe bulbous nose, short nose, and retracted columella, we performed anterior repositioning of the septal cartilage, septal extension using autologous rib cartilage, partial removal of soft tissue, and repositioning of the lower lateral cartilages.

Why the nasal bridge lowers and widens as artificial dermis is absorbed

After identifying a lowered, widened nasal bridge and septal damage caused by artificial dermis absorption, I removed the residual dermis and reconstructed the septum with donor rib cartilage to restore bridge height.
