構造を洗練し、バランスを回復し、より良い呼吸を

軟骨移植修正術は、ご自身の軟骨（鼻中隔、耳介、または肋骨）を用いて、以前の鼻の手術結果を修正または改善し、自然で安定した長期的な構造を実現することを目的とした、特殊な二次鼻形成術です。江南のUE美容外科では、認定を受けた女性の顔面形成専門医が、過剰な手術による見た目ではなく、調和、機能、そして繊細な輪郭の回復に重点を置いています。

軟骨移植の再手術が推奨される場合

• Persistent or new asymmetry after prior rhinoplasty
• Nose looks too pinched, collapsed, or scooped
• 呼吸困難または鼻弁の閉塞
• Lack of support in the tip, columella, or bridge
• Visible irregularities, ridges, or graft edges
• Over-resected cartilage or excessive scar tissue
• Patient desires more natural and stable refinement

Our Surgical Approach

• Septal cartilage (preferred when available) for structure and stability
• 耳の軟骨は、柔らかな印象に整え、輪郭を整えます
• 大規模な再建が必要な場合の肋軟骨
• 瘢痕リリース＋構造再建による長期サポート
• Conservative shaping to avoid stiffness or an “operated” look
