코성형술 Rhinoplasty

[BACKGROUND] Due to the inherent fragility of septal and auricular cartilage, insufficient graft availability during surgery, and technical limitations in nasal tip framework construction, we modified the cartilage harvesting techniques and…

[INTRODUCTION] The nasal tip is a complex structure that depends on the interplay between the lower lateral cartilages, soft tissue, and septal support. An ideal tip reflects balanced projection, rotation, and definition while maintaining a…

[BACKGROUND] Postoperative edema, ecchymosis, and delayed social recovery remain major concerns following implant-based rhinoplasty. Tranexamic acid (TXA) has been widely used to mitigate postoperative bleeding; however, the optimal route o…

[OBJECTIVES] In the present study, we investigated the efficacy of nasal tip grafts for nasal tip shaping and for evaluating rhinoplasty outcome evaluation (ROE). [METHODS] Patients who underwent open rhinoplasty and received various graft…

[OBJECTIVES] This study evaluated early postoperative systemic inflammation, periorbital ecchymosis, edema, and quality of life in patients undergoing rhinoplasty with conventional osteotomy, piezoelectric osteotomy, or no osteotomy. [METH…

[BACKGROUND] Contour irregularities at the dorsum-tip junction remain a challenge in primary, secondary, and cleft-related rhinoplasty, particularly in patients with scarring or shortened soft tissues. While this transition irregularity can…

Achieving imperceptible scars is crucial in facial plastic surgery, particularly in rhinoplasty. The open rhinoplasty technique, which uses a transcolumellar incision with bilateral marginal incisions, provides enhanced visibility and contr…

[OBJECTIVES] This research examined interactions between oleuropein and epithelial cells in human nasal tissue. [METHODS] As is standard practice in septorhinoplasty, nasal epithelial specimens were obtained from clinically healthy tissue.…

Aesthetic surgery is commonly framed as a technical modification of anatomic structures. Yet patients rarely seek surgery for tissue alone; they seek transformation within a visual and social field. Drawing on the philosophy of Maurice Merl…

[OBJECTIVES] This study's overarching goal is to determine whether Cucurbita pepo seed oil (pumpkin seed oil, PSO) is suitable for intranasal delivery as a transfer medium, based on its physicochemical profile and biocompatibility with huma…

[BACKGROUND] Bulbous nasal tip surgery due to lateral-crural pseudo-malposition in medium-to-thick skin with weak cartilage is often challenging. Suture-only maneuvers may not reliably maintain the lateral-crural resting angle in such anato…

[OBJECTIVES] Achieving the desired long-term results in terms of nasal tip projection and rotation is challenging in rhinoplasty. To improve upon the stability and strength of tip support compared with conventional single-strut grafts, the …

Traditional rhinoplasty techniques primarily address the osseocartilaginous framework; however, the final aesthetic outcome also depends on the skin-soft tissue envelope (SSTE) and its ability to redrape. In patients undergoing reduction of…

[BACKGROUND] Facial asymmetry is often overlooked in evaluations of nasal function and aesthetics, despite its potential impact on assessments in facial plastic surgery. [OBJECTIVE] This study aims to utilize AI tools to identify facial as…

[AIMS AND BACKGROUNDS] The success of a rhinoplasty procedure is dictated by a complete understanding of nasal surgical anatomy and keen patient assessment. Conscientious surgeons will create realistic expectations for patients based on the…

[BACKGROUND] Non-surgical rhinoplasty using hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers has become an increasingly popular alternative to surgical approaches. However, concerns persist regarding adverse events, particularly when procedures are performed b…

[BACKGROUND] Nasal base depression is a frequent aesthetic concern in rhinoplasty, particularly in patients with midfacial retrusion. This study introduces a fascia transplantation technique to correct alar base (paranasal) depression and r…
