[BACKGROUND] Deep-plane facelift (DPF) and its extended modification (EDPF) have been developed to address age-related changes in the lower face, particularly marionette lines, jowls, and neck laxity. Although both techniques provide durabl…

[BACKGROUND] Reconstructive rhinoplasty for severely deformed noses requires meticulous technique. While reusing mid-columellar incisions is a common practice, a V-shaped columella-labial incision with V-Y closure may provide superior resul…

[BACKGROUND] Alar nostril ring correction in patients with multiple previous surgeries is one of the most challenging procedures in reconstructive rhinoplasty. Assessment of patient satisfaction and the technique's failure rate is essential…

Preservation rhinoplasty is a groundbreaking advancement increasingly embraced by surgeons worldwide, applicable to a diverse range of nasal anatomies, including the preservation of alar cartilages. Its growing popularity stems from the pri…

This study was conducted to compare the outcomes of the tongue-in-groove (TIG) technique with and without septal extension graft (SEG) on smile and lip position in rhinoplasty. Fifty-eight rhinoplasty patients, treated at a tertiary referra…

[BACKGROUND] Columellar incision techniques for multiply operated and/or severely compromised noses are critical in reconstructive rhinoplasty, because they impact both the final outcome and the risk of complications, such as wound dehiscen…

BackgroundTessier No. 0 cleft, characterized by a bifid nose, significantly impacts facial development, imposing significant psychological and financial burdens on patients. Correction lacks consensus due to varied presentations and limited…

Aesthetic and functional problems related to a deviated nose are challenging to correct with rhinoplasty. To compare the outcome of rhinoplasty using nasal septal bone-cartilaginous units (BCUs) as measured by pre- and postoperative patien…

Nasal skin necrosis represents a severe rhinoplasty complication, potentially leading to nasal deformity and psychological distress. To assess the safety, nasal function enhancement, and esthetic satisfaction in individuals with a history …

[BACKGROUND] Various techniques are employed for septal perforation repair but success rates still vary. Numerous mucosal flaps are used for septal perforation closure; however, a scaffold is essential for proper positioning and enhanced mu…

[OBJECTIVE] The outcome of rhinoplasty was evaluated in patients undergoing tongue-in-groove technique (TIG) with and without septal extension grafts (SEG) placement for stabilization of nasal tip rotation. [SUBJECTS AND METHODS] Three hun…

[BACKGROUND] Isolated ala nasi cleft is a very rare anomaly that causes significant esthetic deformity. This anomaly is usually managed in pediatric patients, and the residual deformity is corrected as much as possible in additional stages.…

[BACKGROUND] Several surgical techniques used for rhinoplasty can change the upper lip form over the long term. By eliminating the membranous septum and causing dysfunction of the depressor septi nasi muscle and performing other maneuvers, …

This research study was designed to evaluate the aesthetic consequences of different dorsal augmentation techniques using diced cartilage on dorsal width and projection in rhinoplasty. Patients were assigned to three groups based on the dor…

[INTRODUCTION] The caudal extension graft is usually a cartilage graft that overlaps the caudal margin of the nasal septum. A combination of the caudal extension graft and the tongue-in-groove technique is used to stabilize the nasal base, …

[BACKGROUND] Revision rhinoplasty in patients with multiple prior surgeries is among the most challenging procedures in facial plastic surgery. Evaluating patient satisfaction in this unique patient population is important in determining wh…

[BACKGROUND] Nostril sill asymmetry is one of the most challenging problems in rhinoplasty. Some studies have been performed regarding nostril shape; however, no studies have been conducted on nostril shape in the Persian population. Additi…

[BACKGROUND] The thick-skinned nose is still one of the most challenging aspects of rhinoplasty. The possible effects of oral isotretinoin on cosmetic results of rhinoplasty in patients with thick nasal skin have been considered during rece…

[PURPOSE] To compare the surgical outcomes of modified extracorporeal septoplasty and anterior septal reconstruction for the management of the severe deviated nose. [METHODS] In a prospective cohort study, we selected 86 patients referred …

[BACKGROUND] Insufficient septal cartilage is a common finding when performing revision rhinoplasty. Such cases require costal or conchal cartilage to be harvested, which is time consuming and brings the risk of morbidity. A new technique i…

[BACKGROUND] Reconstruction of the nasal midvault is an important component of successful rhinoplasty outcomes. Use of the autospreader flap is a beneficial technique for preserving the middle vault. In the present study, we evaluated the e…

This study describes the validation process for the Persian language version of a tool for assessing the functional and cosmesis outcomes of rhinoplasty.…

To achieve an acceptable result in septorhinoplasty, sufficient septal cartilage is needed. There are many cases in which septal cartilage is insufficient, especially in revision surgery or in some races such as Asian. To obtain an ideal ou…

Reshaping of the nasal tip is the most difficult part of rhinoplasty. Over the years, there have been many advances in the field of rhinoplasty, including tip plasty. The goal of these continuous refinements in existing procedures has been …

[BACKGROUND] Postrhinoplasty nasal obstruction has been ascribed to either postreductive narrowing of the midvault or dynamic collapse resulting from lateral wall insufficiency. Recently, clinicians have reported on various surgical techniq…
