Eyelid reconstruction is a complex topic. This review looks at articles from 1990 to 2018 on eyelid reconstruction that had at least 10 patients and a mean 6 month follow-up. The authors present the results of our findings and propose an al…

[OBJECTIVES] Rhinoplasty with or without combined septoplasty is one of the most frequently performed procedures in facial plastic surgery. Patient satisfaction and improvement in quality of life (QoL) is the primary goal. This prospective …

[BACKGROUND] Horizontal mattress suturing is frequently performed during rhinoplasty and otoplasty procedures to control the curvature of the cartilages. Despite the popularity of this technique, there are no quantitative methods for determ…

[BACKGROUND] Correcting a secondary bilateral cleft lip nasal deformity is very complex with many challenges due to its complexity. This study presents the surgical results after correcting a secondary bilateral cleft lip nasal deformity us…

Rhinoplasty focuses on the establishment of the structural support of nasal cartilage and the shaping of the nasal tip. The purpose of this study was to explore the application of "double tower" folding ear cartilage transplantation for nas…

Full-thickness nasal tip reconstruction is a challenging process that requires provision of ample skin and soft tissue, and intricate cartilage structure that maintains its architecture in the long term. In this report, we describe reconstr…

[BACKGROUND] Many techniques have been introduced to correct cryptotia. The previous methods are releasing the constricted cartilage and changing the mechanical fulcrum partly to the right position. However, some patients are still not sati…

[BACKGROUND] The septal extension graft is one of the most commonly used grafts in Asian tip plasty techniques. However, the septal extension graft usually induces a hard and immobile nasal tip. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the…

[UNLABELLED] There is minimal information describing the common characteristics among patients seeking primary/revision rhinoplasty. Success is traditionally interpreted from the surgeon's viewpoint, without considering the patient's perspe…

Rhinoplasty in children has raised concerns about its safety in the pediatric population. There is scarcity of evidence describing outcomes and surgical techniques performed in pediatric rhinoplasty. We analyzed post-operative complications…

[BACKGROUND] Septal extension grafting (SEG) is used for nasal tip projection and positioning. Often, insufficient quadrangular cartilage is available for grafting in Asians, and in most secondary cases the septum is already harvested. We u…

[BACKGROUND] The columellar strut graft based on the use of back-to-back autogenous conchal cartilage is one of the most commonly employed invisible grafts used for nasal tip projection. This graft provides an effective means of achieving n…

Auricular cartilage is a common autologous graft material for rhinoplasty. Even though surgical techniques for the harvest of cartilage graft are well established, the management of the postoperative dressing fixation is still limited. Ther…

A rhinoplasty technique involving lower lateral cartilage (LLC) repositioning and grafting of ear cartilage allows for nasal lengthening and nasal tip mobility. For better esthetic outcomes in patients with cleft lip nasal deformity (CLND),…

[UNLABELLED] Achieving an aesthetic balance and natural appearance when modifying soft tissues of the nasal tip, alae, and nostrils is fundamental to the success of rhinoplasty surgery. The present study aimed to investigate the ability of …

[BACKGROUND] Up to 25% of otoplasties can lead to complications, indicating the need for technical refinement. Stenström's anterior auricular cartilage scoring is used in combination with Mustardé's technique to treat the antihelix deformit…

To explore the feasibility of reconstruction of nasal tip with septal cartilage and auricular cartilage. From September 2018 to October 2019, 17 patients (two males and fifteen females) with low noses underwent rhinoplasty under general an…

[BACKGROUND] Nasal soft triangle is one of the areas usually left unattended in most rhinoplasties, whereas its unique anatomy puts it at great risk of deformities. Its appearance is critical to the natural contour of the nasal tip lobule. …

[PURPOSE] To determine the dimensions and function of the auricular muscle and to consider applications of this muscle in facial plastic surgery. [METHODS] Nonpreserved fresh frozen human cadaver dissections from the (HOSPITAL-Blinded) Bod…
