👃Revision Rhinoplasty with Costal Cartilage Graft❗️
This patient came to us with persistent nasal obstruction and a visibly crooked nose, despite undergoing septoplasty at another center. On evaluation, there was recurrence of septal deviation and an uncorrected bony framework. Additionally, there was no tip support, which further compromised both function and nasal aesthetics.
ℹ️ We performed a revision septorhinoplasty, using costal cartilage grafts to rebuild and reinforce the nasal framework. The rib grafts provided essential structural support, particularly for the tip and dorsum, ensuring long-term stability and symmetry.
🛑 Caution for Patients and Surgeons: When there’s a severe septal deviation with a crooked nose, it is always advisable to opt for septorhinoplasty in the primary surgery.
✅ Corrects both internal deviation and external deformity
✅ Prevents the need for revision and rib cartilage harvest
✅ Ensures better functional and aesthetic outcomes in a single surgery
A well-planned primary surgery saves patients from repeated procedures, prolonged recovery, and suboptimal results.
