What is Autologous Nose Revision Surgery?

Retmus’ autologous nose revision surgery uses the patient’s own tissues, such as autologous dermis, autologous fascia, and autologous cartilage, for revision procedures.
Because the tissues naturally integrate within the body, the procedure is stable and carries fewer risks compared to synthetic implants, resulting in a more natural and harmonious outcome.

In addition, we perform a precise analysis of the nasal bones, septal cartilage, skin tissue, and implant conditions to create an accurate surgical plan. Only the necessary areas are minimally dissected to reduce tissue damage.Delicate suturing minimizes scarring, ensuring both safety and highly refined results.

Your Own Tissue That Lasts Over Time, Autologous Tissue

At Retmus Plastic Surgery, we prioritize safety and natural results by focusing on autologous tissue–based procedures,
using the materials most compatible with the human body.

At Retmus, we select the optimal autologous tissue for each patient’s individual condition
and perform personalized surgery tailored to their needs.

What is Autologous Dermis / Autologous Fascia?

Autologous dermis and fascia use the patient’s own tissue and are often applied in cases where the skin is thin or complications have arisen from previous implants.

01
When a natural-looking nasal contour, as if it were your own, is desired.

02
In cases of complications from implants (e.g., visibility, protrusion, inflammation).

03
When a natural feel is desired, so that the nose does not show signs of previous surgery when touched.

04
When the nasal skin is too thin to comfortably use an implant.

05
When the nasal bones are narrow, making the results of an implant more conspicuous.

Retmus Autologous Dermis/Fascia Surgical Method

1.
Autologous Dermis Grafting

Autologous dermis uses the dermal layer beneath the patient’s own skin.
Compared to fat, dermis has a lower absorption rate and excellent graft survival, allowing the nasal bridge height and shape to be maintained stably.

Method 01
Harvesting Buttock Dermis

Dermis is harvested from the buttock area.

Method 02
Dermis Fat Grafting to Nasal Bridge

The dermis is grafted to naturally enhance volume and contour.

Method 03
Dermis Fat Grafting to Nasal Tip

Natural volume and height are added to the nasal tip.

2.
Autologous Fascia Grafting

Autologous fascia uses a thin, strong fibrous membrane that surrounds muscles.
It acts as a buffer between the skin and implants, providing both flexibility and strength, making it effective for nasal tip reinforcement and creating a natural nasal contour.

Method 01
Harvesting Mastoid or Scalp Fascia

Fascia is harvested from behind the ear (mastoid fascia) or the scalp.

Method 02
Multi-layer Fascia Grafting to Nasal Tip

Natural volume and height are added to the nasal tip.

Method 03
Reinforcement over Implants

The fascia is placed over silicone implants to prevent skin translucency and achieve a natural feel and shape.

Key Points of
Revisional Nose Surgery

The Difference of Autologous Nose Revision Performed Personally by Dr. Seung-il Chung

- Improvement of the Nasolabial Angle
- With delicate design that considers the harmony between the nasal tip and philtrum, the nasolabial angle is corrected to an ideal degree, creating a more refined and three-dimensional facial appearance.

- Minimizing Inflammation and Complications
- By using autologous tissue instead of synthetic implants, the risk of foreign body reaction and contracture is reduced. Only the necessary areas are minimally dissected, minimizing unnecessary tissue damage.

- - Natural Nasal Contour
  - Using the patient’s own tissues (autologous dermis, fascia, and cartilage), the nose is stably integrated within the body, achieving a natural contour that harmonizes with the face without appearing excessive.
