Examining the causes of a contracted nose and methods for reconstruction

For a contracted nose and septal damage following repeated surgeries and implant removal, we reconstructed the septum using autologous rib cartilage while correcting the upturned tip and rhinitis.

Remaining structures and reconstruction methods after alar reduction

Nostril asymmetry, a bulbous nasal tip, and nasal obstruction caused by excessive alar reduction were improved by combining autologous rib cartilage septal extension, alar reconstruction, and rhinitis surgery.

How to remove embedded lifting threads from the nose and reconstruct the nasal structure

After completely removing 20 to 30 remaining threads inserted during oriental clinic thread-lifting procedures, the nasal line was improved by combining nasal tip correction using septal cartilage and donor rib cartilage with rhinitis surgery.

Reconstruction methods for an upturned nose and damaged support structures

An upturned nose accompanied by loss of the septum and damage to the lower lateral cartilages from excessive cartilage harvesting was restored through septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage and alar cartilage reconstruction using the previous ear cartilage.

How to correct a short nose and nasal obstruction together

A short, upturned nose accompanied by nasal obstruction and a decreased sense of smell was corrected using a combination of septal extension with autologous rib cartilage, septoplasty for a deviated septum, lateral osteotomy, and submucosal resection of the inferior turbinates.

Upturned nose and nasal obstruction: how to reconstruct structural support with rib cartilage

For an upturned nose and severe nasal obstruction caused by septal cartilage loss following silicone implant removal, we performed total septal reconstruction using rib cartilage, nostril lowering, and internal nasal valve reconstruction.

How to correct a crooked nose, nasal obstruction, and nasal tip structure together

A damaged septum, crooked nose, and nasal obstruction from previous surgery were corrected structurally and functionally using autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction, septal extension grafting, and rhinitis surgery.

Correcting a low nasal bridge and nasal obstruction together

A low, flat nasal bridge, a bulbous tip, and nasal obstruction caused by a deviated septum were improved through rhinoplasty using septal cartilage and ear cartilage, alongside inferior turbinate reduction.

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.

How the septum is reconstructed in revision rhinoplasty

In a patient presenting with septal damage, a crooked nose, and breathing difficulties following two-jaw surgery and filler procedures, residual filler was removed, autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction was performed, and rhinitis surgery was carried out.

How to correct a contracted nose and inflammation caused by residual foreign material

Contracture and septal defect developed due to residual mesh and a foreign body reaction from previous surgeries. We removed the remaining foreign material, reconstructed the septum using autologous rib cartilage, and performed a skin graft to the columella.

How to plan nasal filler removal and nasal obstruction correction

This is a case of a patient who visited our clinic presenting with a blunt, widened nose and intermittent nasal obstruction after nasal filler treatment. Filler removal and nasal tip correction using autologous rib cartilage were performed, and functional surgery for the septum and inferior turbinates was planned.
