[BACKGROUND] Three-dimensional (3D) simulation and virtual reality (VR) technologies are increasingly used in aesthetic surgery consultations to enhance decision-making and expectation management. However, their impact on surgical decision-…

[BACKGROUND] Invasive and minimally invasive cosmetic procedures in patients with autoimmune or inflammatory skin disorders can carry an increased risk of surgical site infection, disease exacerbation, atrophic/hypertrophic scarring, or sub…

[BACKGROUND] The septocolumellar strut (SCS) technique has been proposed as an additional support element to enhance tip stability when used alongside a traditional columellar strut in open rhinoplasty. Evidence on its early and long-term e…

[BACKGROUND] Rhinoplasty remains one of the most popular cosmetic procedures worldwide and continues to evolve alongside shifting perceptions of beauty and identity. However, there are certain anthropometric standards that have emerged as t…

[AIM AND BACKGROUND] Asian rhinoplasty presents unique challenges due to distinct anatomical features, including a low nasal dorsum, weak cartilaginous framework, and thick soft tissue envelope. This article examines contemporary surgical a…

Reconstructing the dorsum in revision rhinoplasty remains a complex challenge. Traditional methods such as solid rib grafts and diced cartilage fascia (DCF) grafts present significant limitations, including warping, displacement, and insuff…

Piezoelectric osteotomy may reduce postoperative morbidity after rhinoplasty, but time-based effects remain uncertain. We aimed to understand the time-based effectiveness and safety of piezoelectric osteotomy versus conventional method. We …

[BACKGROUND] Septorhinoplasty (SRPL) is a frequently performed surgery aimed to improve health-related quality of life (HRQOL), typically assessed using disease-specific questionnaires. This study aimed to analyze the factors influencing po…

[OBJECTIVES] Although postoperative edema and ecchymosis are expected results of rhinoplasty, the authors attempt to limit them by applying a cold compress to osteotomy lines after rhinoplasty. Many forms of cold eye masks and facial masks …

[BACKGROUND] The most critical exam components in patients seeking rhinoplasty have not been established. [OBJECTIVE] To identify concordance among experienced rhinoplasty surgeons regarding the most important exam features for various def…

[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] Several modalities have been developed to achieve precise tip contouring and address postsurgical edema. This comparative study aimed to analyze the short- and long-term effects of the Pitanguy ligament management on nasal tip …

[BACKGROUND] Short nose correction in Asian rhinoplasty is challenging due to weak septal cartilage, thick skin envelopes, and strong postoperative contractile forces that compromise long-term tip stability. [OBJECTIVES] This study aimed t…

Achieving durable nasal tip stabilization remains a central challenge in septorhinoplasty, particularly in patients with weak cartilage support or significant dorsal septal deviation. Conventional septal extension grafts and suspension-base…

[INTRODUCTION] Temperature-controlled radiofrequency (TCRF), septoplasty (ST) with turbinate reduction, and functional rhinoplasty (FR) are treatment options for nasal airway obstruction (NAO) and nasal valve dysfunction (NVD), but no direc…

[OBJECTIVE] The objective of this study was to evaluate the incidence of perioperative opioid prescription and the development of new persistent opioid usage in patients prescribed perioperative opioids for common otolaryngological procedur…

[BACKGROUND] Columellar scarring remains an important aesthetic concern in open septorhinoplasty, and while multiple studies have compared absorbable and non-absorbable sutures, the specific effects of slowly absorbable polydioxanone (PDS) …

ObjectiveTo compare aesthetic outcomes in patients with bilateral cleft lip treated with concurrent primary rhinoplasty (PR) versus non-primary rhinoplasty (NPR), using layperson and anthropometric assessments.DesignRetrospective review of …
