Description

Norihiro Ohba, Goichi Haraoka, Mayuko Ohba, and Norio Takahashi report methods to fix nose deformities left by cosmetic surgery, in work from 2024. Too much tissue removal can notch the nostril rim, flatten the side of the nose, and blur the crease where nose meets cheek.

The team revised sixteen cases over several years, most of them women. Ear cartilage grafts were the main tool to rebuild shape without a poor color match. A small flap of nearby tissue helped some notches, and two cinching stitches defined the crease. Nearly all flaps survived, with one graft lost to infection.
