Hello, this is Dr. Cha-Young Kang, Director of Nose Lab Clinic.
Today, I’m sharing a detailed case involving nasal redness correction and the creation of a more sophisticated nasal line through revision rhinoplasty.
This case highlights how we integrate structural reconstruction and aesthetic refinement to achieve optimal, long-lasting results for our patients.

1. Surgical History and Key Concerns
Surgical History
First surgery: Autologous rib cartilage + silicone implant
Second surgery: Donor rib cartilage + silicone implant
Key Concerns
Persistent nasal redness with risk of chronic inflammation
High nasal starting point (nasion)
Broad nasal tip
Need for nasolabial angle adjustment
Elongated nasal appearance

2. Patient’s Goals
Reduce nasal redness and lower inflammation risk
Adjust starting point of the nasal bridge
Narrow the nasal tip for a more delicate contour
Improve nasolabial angle for balanced proportions
Shorten perceived nasal length
Achieve a Westernized yet natural look

3. Surgical Plan and Procedure
tructural Reconstruction
Rebuilt nasal septum using autologous rib cartilage for durability
Corrected nasal base width to slim the nasal tip
Sculpted a custom implant for proportional balance
Shape Refinement
Adjusted nasolabial angle for harmony
Lowered the bridge starting point for a softer, natural profile
Reduced overall nasal length for better facial proportion
Aesthetic Enhancement
Refined the columella line for sophistication
Balanced dorsal contour for a smooth bridge transition
Achieved overall facial harmony from multiple angles
4. Results – Nasal Redness Correction Outcome

Frontal View: Narrower nasal tip, reduced redness, improved symmetry

Side View: Softer bridge start point, balanced nasolabial angle, proportional length

Oblique View: Enhanced three-dimensional contour, natural columella curve

Nasal Base View: Narrower base width, stable structure, preserved breathing function
5. Surgeon’s Commentary


This was a challenging case due to cartilage loss from prior surgeries.
By combining nasal redness correction with structural and aesthetic improvements, we were able to restore both function and appearance.
The final outcome meets the patient’s goals for a refined, natural, and lasting result.
At Nose Lab Clinic, all procedures are performed using the closed rhinoplasty approach.
