Contracted nose reconstruction method for the nasal bridge and nasal tip using autologous rib cartilage

This is a case of a contracted nose following total removal of materials due to acute inflammation after a previous surgery. After stem cell injection therapy, the damaged septum and lower lateral cartilage were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, and adhesiolysis was planned to address nasal obstruction.

How to plan nostril lowering (alar rim grafting) in an upturned nose

A case where a septum weakened by previous surgery was reinforced with donor rib cartilage, and nostril lowering was performed using an ear cartilage graft and lower lateral cartilage repositioning. The existing autologous gluteal dermis was reused at the nasal tip, and functional surgery for nasal obstruction was performed simultaneously.

Correction methods for a small and bulbous nose

This is a case of a small, bulbous nose accompanied by poor skin elasticity and nasal obstruction. The thin, deviated septum was partially reconstructed and extended using autologous rib cartilage, and functional nasal surgery was planned for the deviated septum and inferior turbinate.

Is it possible to correct a philtrum reduction and remove autologous dermis?

Nostril asymmetry, a crooked nose, and nasal bone defects that developed after a previous philtrum reduction and rhinoplasty were reconstructed using lateral osteotomy restoration, autologous rib cartilage, and a rotation flap.

How to correct an upturned contracted nose with autologous rib cartilage

In a patient presenting with contracture, an upturned nose, and loss of lower lateral cartilages due to inflammation after previous surgery, we performed septal and alar cartilage reconstruction using autologous rib cartilage combined with stem cell therapy and alar rim lowering.

How to correct a long nose by lowering the radix

The excessively high Gore-Tex implant was removed from the glabella, the radix was lowered to the pupil line, and the septum and retracted columella were corrected using autologous rib cartilage.

Nasal thread removal and correction of a short, upturned nose using autologous rib cartilage

6 dissolvable threads inserted into the nasal bridge were removed, and autologous rib cartilage was used to reconstruct the upturned nasal tip and damaged right lower lateral cartilage, correcting the asymmetry.

Revision rhinoplasty using autologous rib cartilage for an upturned nose from contracture and nostril asymmetry

A case presenting with a short, upturned nasal tip and nostril asymmetry following a history of silicone implant inflammation. The damaged lower lateral cartilage and septum were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, and replacement of the Gore-Tex implant was included in the surgical plan.
