[PURPOSE] To report a rare presentation of periocular necrotizing fasciitis (NF) following a surgical site infection after aesthetic rhinoplasty. [CASE PRESENTATION] We present two otherwise healthy patients who developed periocular swelli…

[BACKGROUND] Saddle nose deformity caused by disruption of the keystone area remains surgically challenging. We developed a septum suspension technique using a rib bone cantilever graft to restore keystone continuity and improve airflow. […

[BACKGROUND] Craniomaxillofacial trauma is a common occurrence in adults, often resulting from vehicle accidents, assaults, sports injuries, working accidents, and others. The primary goal of craniomaxillofacial trauma surgery is to restore…

Porous polyethylene implants are widely used in rhinoplasty but are associated with complications, including infection, extrusion, and framework destruction. Managing such complications is challenging, often requiring staged reconstruction.…

[BACKGROUND] Rhinoplasty and particularly tip refinement, is complex and prone to revision, especially in thin-skinned patients. To address these issues, the senior author developed a fascia-cartilage hybrid tip graft (FCHTG) combining crus…

[BACKGROUND] The nasal cavity's natural bacterial flora poses a risk for postoperative infections, prompting surgeons to administer prophylactic antibiotics during septorhinoplasty. However, this practice's effectiveness is debated due to c…

[BACKGROUND] Pediatric nasal dermoid/sinus cysts (NDSC) are common congenital midline craniofacial lesions associated with embryonic tissue entrapment and abnormal midline fusion during embryogenesis; they can involve intracranial structure…

[BACKGROUND] Modern techniques in structure rhinoplasty require cartilage for grafting. The optimal source of this cartilage is debated. Fresh frozen homologous costal cartilage (FFHCC) grafts are a promising source of cartilage; further in…

[BACKGROUND] Smoking's impact on tissue perfusion and wound healing is particularly relevant in rhinoplasty, where precise tissue healing is crucial for functional and aesthetic outcomes. Although the nasal region's robust vascular supply m…

[BACKGROUND] In rhinoplasty, the open approach carries potential risks such as hypertrophic scarring, while synthetic implants carry potential risks like infection. Therefore, we propose a new technique that utilizes exclusively auricular c…

[BACKGROUND] Diced costal cartilage wrapped in autogenous fascia is favored by rhinoplasty surgeons because of its high stability and low resorption rate. However, the volume of fascial bags is difficult to adjust, and diced costal cartilag…

[BACKGROUND] This study aimed to discuss and evaluate the results of a technique known as the dual-plane diced cartilage graft concept designed to improve dorsal nasal and radix augmentation in ethnic rhinoplasty cases. This involves the in…

[BACKGROUND] Postoperative infections and suboptimal scar outcomes remain persistent challenges in cosmetic surgery, impairing patient satisfaction and quality of life. This study evaluates whether a standardized fractional ultra-pulse CO₂ …

[BACKGROUND] Refining the nasal dorsum to achieve a smooth and natural contour remains challenging, particularly in patients with thin skin who are prone to visible surface irregularities. Numerous techniques have been described to address …

[INTRODUCTION] Dorsal augmentation enhances nasal dorsum height and contour. Existing techniques face challenges like resorption, infection, and migration. This study introduces Stratified Dorsal Augmentation, a multi-layered cartilage graf…

Functional rhinoplasty often relies on repurposed cartilage for nasal framework grafting. To compare complications in functional rhinoplasty associated with use of autologous versus fresh frozen cadaveric rib cartilage (FFCR). This retros…

Silicone implants are commonly used alloplastic materials for rhinoplasty in Asia, as they are easy to manipulate, provide adequate volume augmentation, and exhibit excellent biocompatibility. However, they are associated with complications…

Serratia marcescens is an uncommon cause of cutaneous infections, especially in immunocompetent individuals. We present a 31-year-old woman with a chronic erythematous nodule on the nasal supratip, three years post-rhinoplasty. Initial trea…

[BACKGROUND] Debate about the advantages and disadvantages of alloplastic vs autologous implant material for dorsal augmentation rhinoplasty continues among the aesthetic surgery community. Silicone implants are criticized for high rates of…

[INTRODUCTION] Facial feminization surgery (FFS) has become a crucial component of transgender gender-affirming care. Despite the increasing number of transgender patients undergoing FFS, there is limited literature investigating surgical o…
