Nasal silicone implant complication

This patient has deviated nasal silicone implant and short and contracted nose.

It is common complication of nasal silicone implant nose job.

Revision rhinoplasty included silicone removal, replacing the silicone with rib cartilage, and lengthening the nose and tip.

Only autogenous materials like rib cartilage can enable all these procedures.

Filling the empty, excavated dorsum with carved rib cartilage requires a lot of efforts.

Tedious carving to prevent warping, secure fixation of the graft to the widely dissected dorum, making a smooth transition from forehead to nose, preventation of an operated look, etc.

Lengthening the contracted skin needs wide undermining of skin, making a stable flatform to fix the lengthened tip cartilage and skin, and filling the deficient vestibular skin if present.
