Patient’s Concerns Before Crooked Nose Correction
A 28-year-old female patient visited Nose Lab Clinic seeking Crooked Nose Correction and improvement of her upturned nasal tip. Over the past six years, she had multiple surgeries but remained dissatisfied.
Her medical history included:
Orthognathic surgery one year ago
Nose filler injection 5–6 years ago
Rhinoplasty with donated rib cartilage and silicone
Additional rhinoplasty with her own rib cartilage and silicone, followed by a corrective surgery due to risk of necrosis
From the frontal view, her nostrils were overly exposed and the bridge looked crooked.
From the side view, the tip was upturned with a high starting point.
From the nostril view, she showed nostril asymmetry, columella scars, and skin depression.


Surgical Planning for Crooked Nose Correction
The most concerning issue was compromised blood circulation in the nasal tip due to previous surgeries.
To ensure safety, we chose a closed rhinoplasty approach.
Key Surgical Goals for Crooked Nose Correction
Reconstruct damaged septum with autologous rib cartilage
Correct the upturned nasal tip
Straighten the crooked nasal bridge
Refine the wide nasal base
Improve lip protrusion and nostril asymmetry
Address scar tissue and skin depression
Surgical Outcome After Crooked Nose Correction
During surgery, signs of limited blood flow appeared, but the closed approach minimized risks.
We successfully reconstructed the septum with rib cartilage, straightened the crooked bridge, and corrected the upturned tip.




Post-Surgery Results
Reduced nostril show
Corrected crooked nasal bridge
Natural nasal tip position
Improved nasolabial angle (~95°)
Refined nostril asymmetry and columella scars
