Correction methods considering the shape of contracted and upturned noses

In a male patient who developed contracture deformity, an upturned nose, and nasal obstruction after repeated surgeries, septal reconstruction and extension using autologous rib cartilage along with nostril lowering were performed via a closed approach.

Correction method for a small, upturned nose considering the nasolabial angle and nasal function

To correct nasal obstruction along with an upturned nose, short nose, and low glabella, septoplasty, submucosal resection of the inferior turbinate, autologous rib cartilage septal extension, and lateral osteotomy were performed using a closed approach.

How to reconstruct a nose upturned from contracture using autologous rib cartilage

Following multiple nasal surgeries and inflammation that led to contracture, an upturned nasal tip, and nostril asymmetry, autologous rib cartilage was used to extend and reconstruct the septum, creating the dorsal hump line requested by the patient.

How to correct the tip and bridge in a long, arrow-shaped nose

To correct a long drooping arrow-shaped nose, dorsal hump, and nostril asymmetry, septal extension with septal and donor rib cartilage, lateral osteotomy, and hump trimming were performed via a closed approach.

Closed correction method for a crooked nose and nostril asymmetry

In a patient with a persistent crooked nose, nostril asymmetry, a wide nasal dorsum, and nasal obstruction after a prior rhinoplasty, autologous rib cartilage septal reconstruction, osteotomies, and inferior turbinate resection were performed without an implant.

Rhinoplasty approach examining the structure of a bulbous nasal tip

In a patient presenting with a bulbous, drooping tip and symptoms of a deviated septum after previous rhinoplasty, septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage, lateral osteotomy, and turbinoplasty were performed via a closed approach.

Surgical plan for revision rhinoplasty with septal perforation

In a patient with a history of past surgeries, septal perforation, and saddle nose deformity, septal reconstruction and extension using autologous rib cartilage, alar lowering, and direct closure were performed via a closed approach.

Nasal structures and reconstruction methods for a contracted nose after repeated surgeries

Following a history of 6 surgeries with cartilage resorption, contracture, and columellar retraction, the structure was corrected through total septal reconstruction using fresh autologous rib cartilage.

Surgical approach for an upturned and crooked nose

This is a case of correcting a crooked nasal bridge and an upturned nose after two prior surgeries. Using a closed approach, the existing silicone implant and foreign material were removed, the nasal bridge and nasal tip were reconstructed with autologous rib cartilage, and nostril lowering was performed simultaneously.

How to correct a long nose and wide nose

This is a case where a long, wide nose and drooping tip were naturally improved. Lateral osteotomy was performed using a closed approach, and septal extension and lower lateral cartilage suturing were carried out using donor rib cartilage and septal cartilage.

How to correct a pinched nose and nostril asymmetry

A case correcting pinched alae, an upturned nose, and nostril asymmetry following previous surgeries. Using a closed approach, septal reconstruction with autologous rib cartilage, lower lateral cartilage reconstruction, alar rim grafting (lowering the alar rim), and dermis grafting were performed.

Bulbous nose correction and lowering the columella

To improve a retracted columella and a bulbous nose resulting from past alar reduction, filler on the nasal bridge was removed, and autologous rib cartilage was used for septal extension, lowering the columella, and nasolabial angle correction.

Rhinoplasty methods following foreign material removal

Through a closed approach, complex filler and thread foreign materials accumulated over a prolonged period were removed, and the nasal structure was corrected using autologous rib cartilage for tip reconstruction, lateral osteotomy, and lowering the columella.

Methods for correcting a bulbous and wide nose

A wide nasal tip, wide nasal bones, and nasal obstruction caused by internal nasal valve stenosis were improved together using closed lateral osteotomy, partial resection of subcutaneous tissue, and septal cartilage reinforcement.

How to correct right-sided nasal obstruction, a bulbous tip, and an upturned nose

To resolve an upturned nose, bulbous nasal tip, and right-sided nasal obstruction, we performed septal extension, lateral osteotomy, silicone implant placement, septoplasty, and turbinate reduction.

How to correct a bulbous, upturned nose

This is a case of a 21-year-old female with an upturned nose showing excessive nostril exposure and a bulbous tip. Subcutaneous tissue excision, silicone implant placement, lateral osteotomy, and septal extension grafting using septal and donor rib cartilage added definition and projection.
