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

Before (left) and immediately after (right) revision rhinoplasty – frontal view showing correction of nasal structure and alignment.
Before (Left) / Immediately After (Right)

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

Before (left) and immediately after (right) revision rhinoplasty – side profile view showing improved nasal bridge and tip projection.
Before (Left) / Immediately After (Right)

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

Before (left) and immediately after (right) revision rhinoplasty – oblique view showing refined nasal tip and improved symmetry.
Before (Left) / Immediately After (Right)

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

Before (left) and immediately after (right) revision rhinoplasty – base view showing corrected nostril asymmetry and refined nasal shape
Before (Left) / Immediately After (Right)

Nasal Base View: Narrower base width, stable structure, preserved breathing function



5. Surgeon’s Commentary

Immediately after revision rhinoplasty – frontal, oblique side, and side views showing improved nasal contour and corrected nostril asymmetry
Immediately After Surgery: Frontal, Oblique Side, and Side View Photos

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.

Postoperative precautions and possible complications after rhinoplasty – includes information on infection, bleeding, asymmetry, allergic reactions, and scarring.
