Nose revision surgery: a case of correcting a long nose with donor costal cartilage?

Hello, this is BT Plastic Surgery!

Many people consider revision surgery because they are not satisfied with the results after nasal surgery, or because the shape changes over time.

Today, we would like to introduce a case in which revision surgery was performed using donor costal cartilage to correct a long nose.

What is a long nose?

A long nose refers to a condition in which the nose appears excessively long.

✔️ When the tip of the nose droops downward

✔️ When the bridge and tip of the nose are excessively long and do not look balanced

In particular, when revision surgery is needed, the implant used in the previous surgery or the condition of the tissue is often not good, making it difficult to create the desired shape.

Why use donor costal cartilage?

When the cartilage that previously supported the nasal tip is damaged or insufficient,

donor costal cartilage can be used to create a stable support structure.

✔️ It is good for creating a natural shape ✔️ A sufficient amount can be secured ✔️ A sturdy support can be built to keep the nasal tip from collapsing.

Surgical process

1. Organize the tissue and implants damaged by the previous surgery
2. Rebuild the nasal tip support using donor costal cartilage
3. Shorten the nose length to match facial proportions and correct it into a harmonious line

The key to revision surgery is not simply changing the shape,

but creating it solidly while also considering functional stability.

The surgery takes about 1 to 2 hours,

and you can go home right away without hospitalization. Gangnam nose surgery clinic Before surgery, low-dose 3D CT imaging is used to closely assess and diagnose the patient’s nasal condition.
