Due to the prevalence of anterior maxilla dysplasia in Asian population, paranasal concavity is a common accompaniment to low nose, but its impact on facial harmonization is often underestimated. A retrospective comparative study was conduc…

[BACKGROUND] An improperly established tip graft can lead to a narrow tip over time. To further refine the nasal tip and reduce the possibility of a narrow pointy tip, a shield graft and a tip onlay graft made from rib cartilage were fixate…

[BACKGROUND] Because of its unique advantages, frontal expansion has become a common tool for Asian nasal reconstruction, but it has the limitations of prolonging the duration and pain in the expansion area. Based on the fact that the dener…

[BACKGROUND] In East Asian individuals, the nasal bone already has sufficient height for an ideal dorsal profile, but the tip requires enhancement for a desired projection. Consequently, the gap between the intrinsic bony structure and the …

[INTRODUCTION] Rhinoplasty for caudal septal cartilage defects is a challenge due to the difficulty of fixation of the grafts. [OBJECTIVES] This study presents an approach for correcting defects in caudal septal cartilage with the costal c…

[BACKGROUND] An enduringly stable tip graft is the key to achieve successful rhinoplasty cases. However, the intrinsic nature of rib graft warping renders major unpredictability for the long-term outcome. The objective of this study was to …

[BACKGROUND] Tessier No.0 cleft with a bifid nose is a rare malformation. Reconstruction of the nose is essential for children/adults to correct facial cosmetic defects and contribute to developing patients' mental health. The aim of the st…

[BACKGROUND] An enduringly stable tip graft is the key to achieving successful rhinoplasty. However, the intrinsic tendency of rib grafts to warp renders the long-term outcome of cartilage-based rhinoplasty highly unpredictable. [OBJECTIVE…

[BACKGROUND] The camouflage of the nasal dorsum is very important for thin-skinned patients. In this study, the authors presented an improved method for these patients and evaluated the safety and efficacy of this method in augmentation rhi…

[BACKGROUND] Historically, research of diced cartilage for rhinoplasty has mainly explored the efficacy of wrapped materials, with few studies dedicated to various sizes of diced cartilage. [OBJECTIVES] The authors of this study sought to …

[BACKGROUND] Diced cartilage wrapped in blood products has been increasingly advocated in rhinoplasty. The complication is a major concern of the procedure. This meta-analysis aims to assess the complication rates and revision rate of this …

[BACKGROUND] The costal cartilage is widely used in rhinoplasty. Although different surgical methods of costal cartilage harvest have been developed, few studies have reported the method of costal cartilage harvest for patients after breast…

[BACKGROUND] It is undeniable that costal cartilage is an excellent source of grafts, however it has some potential disadvantages, including a tendency to warp. There are very few studies that have examined how to resolve preexisting cartil…

[BACKGROUND] Secondary deformities of the cleft lip and nose are mainly caused by the long period of craniofacial development and the secondary scarring. Correction of the secondary cleft lip-nose deformity is a complex process that require…

[BACKGROUND] Extended Spreader Grafts (ESGs) are widely used for both esthetic and functional purpose in rhinoplasty. This study aims to examine the effects of drilling on ESGs in rhinoplasty and their clinical benefits, as well as to analy…

[BACKGROUND] A variety of techniques for alar base modification have been described in the literature. Limitations of these techniques include scars, recurrence, asymmetry, etc. An incorrect excision of the lateral alar wall can result in a…

[ABSTRACT] Costal cartilage harvesting (CCH) is a fundamental skill for plastic surgery residents to master. Understanding the learning process is essential for optimizing training programs and ensuring patient safety. Previous research on …

[PURPOSE] To evaluate the efficacy of botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) injection in patients with chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS) after transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). [MATERIALS AND METHODS] Six patients after TURP recei…

[BACKGROUND] Paranasal augmentation was effective management for midface concavity. Both alloplastic graft (e.g. silicone, porous polyethylene, or expanded polytetrafluorethylene) and autologous tissue (e.g. costal cartilage) were used for …

[BACKGROUND] The angulation of nasal bones and superior border of septal cartilage forms a slight convex profile at rhinion area. Taking this angulation into account, we bring forth a modification of dorsal onlay graft. [METHODS] Sixty-one…

Diced cartilage has been widely applied in rhinoplasty, especially for segmental dorsal augmentation, with favorable outcomes over time. Various techniques were developed to increase both stability and viability of diced cartilage, includin…

Our aim was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of multimodal cocktail intercostal injection for the relief of chest pain after costal cartilage harvest for rhinoplasty. Consecutive patients who underwent costal cartilage harvest during rhi…

[OBJECTIVE] The study was aimed to develop and validate a nomogram to predict risk of postoperative infection after costal cartilage-based rhinoplasty METHODS: The primary cohort of this study consisted of 672 patients who were appraised be…

[BACKGROUND] A stable cartilaginous framework establishes the foundation for a successful rhinoplasty procedure. However, the curvature of the anterior septal angle usually does not match the added tip graft, leaving a structural gap that c…

[OBJECTIVE] To the best of our knowledge, there is currently no such study in the area of extensive calcified costal cartilage rhinoplasty. The study evaluated patients' satisfaction with extensive calcified costal cartilage compared with n…

[OBJECTIVE] The literature on the patients' satisfaction after rhinoplasty is limited. The purpose of our study was to use the patient-reported outcome measures to study the difference of satisfaction between men and women and between diffe…

[BACKGROUND] Although costal cartilage is a reliable source of cartilage for rhinoplasty and provides a strong scaffold for total nasal reconstruction, traditional collection techniques may cause complications at the donor site. In this pap…
