A case correcting a nasal bridge and nasal tip that became wide and blunt after 5 nasal filler treatments. After dissolving and removing the filler, lateral osteotomy, silicone implant placement, and nasal tip correction using autologous rib cartilage were performed.
Preoperative condition
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.
Preoperative condition · Postoperative record
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.
Preoperative condition
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.
Preoperative condition
In a short, upturned nose with insufficient skin, a support was built using autologous rib cartilage to sufficiently lower the nasal tip, and a silicone implant was used to smoothly connect the nasal bridge.
Preoperative condition · Postoperative record
In a severe contracted nose that developed after a history of 27 surgeries and fat graft procedures, the protruding silicone implant and degenerated tissue were removed, and the septum and structural support were reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage.
Preoperative condition
This is a case of early revision rhinoplasty performed just 14 days after surgery, as deviation persisted despite a prior surgery and an attempted correction. The plan involved removing the implant and cartilage and using autologous rib cartilage, documenting changes in the radix, nasal dorsum, and nasal tip after surgery.
Preoperative condition · Postoperative record
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.
Preoperative condition · Postoperative record
This is a case where the silicone implant had been removed after repeated surgeries led to tip redness and contracture deformity. Autologous rib cartilage and stem cell therapy were planned, and changes in tip depression, upturning, and nasolabial angle immediately after surgery were documented.
Preoperative condition · Postoperative record
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.
Preoperative condition · Postoperative record
This is a case of a patient concerned about an uneven, wide, crooked nose, prominent nostril show from the front, and a wide nasal floor. Here, I introduce the surgical plan involving lateral osteotomy, tip plasty using autologous rib cartilage, and nasal floor reduction, along with photos taken immediately after surgery.
Preoperative condition
This is a case where excessive septal cartilage harvest led to a deviated septum, nasal obstruction, and an upturned, crooked tip, which were corrected by reconstructing the septum with autologous rib cartilage, removing scar tissue, and repositioning the lower lateral cartilages.
Preoperative condition
This is a case where postoperative inflammation led to a depressed and upturned nasal tip along with severe nostril asymmetry. I introduce the reconstruction plan using autologous rib cartilage according to the extent of cartilage damage, along with comparison photos taken immediately after surgery.
Preoperative condition
A case involving nostril asymmetry and excessive nostril show after previous implant removal due to inflammation. Depending on the cartilage condition, autologous rib cartilage reconstruction, lateral osteotomy, and nostril rim extension were planned, documented with photos taken immediately after surgery.
Preoperative condition
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.
Preoperative condition
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.
Preoperative condition
This is a revision rhinoplasty case of a patient who presented with an upturned nose and a drooping tip. The damaged lower lateral cartilages and septum were partially reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage, septal extension was performed to lower the nasal tip, and nostril lowering was included in the plan.
Preoperative condition
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.
