چکیده
INTRODUCTION: Correction of the hump nose entails more than just simple elimination of the dorsal hump. Recent trend is toward conservative reduction of the hump and appropriate adjustment of the radix height. East Asians often present with pseudo-hump, due to underprojected radix or tip, which accentuates the height of the hump. This study introduces our method of pseudohump correction and achieving a balanced nasal profile with minimal reduction of the hump and augmentation of the dorsum and tip with a modified extended spreader graft.

Comparison of Aesthetic and Functional Outcomes of Spreader Graft and Autospreader Flap in Rhinoplasty
BACKGROUND Although the assignment and suturing of the spreader graft to the septum is a routine part of rhinoplasty, it is a time wasting procedure and some problems may occur. Rather, autospreader flap is a new method that the dorsal part of the upper lateral cartilage is used as its own graft. In the present study, we intended to compare the functional and aesthetic outcomes of these two ...

متن کاملThe pull-up spreader high (PUSH) technique for nasal tip support.
BACKGROUND Nasal tip depression is associated with nasal valve collapse. The pull-up spreader high (PUSH) technique was developed to enlarge the nasal dorsum and upwardly rotate and define the nasal tip by lifting the domes. OBJECTIVES The authors reviewed a case series to assess the long-term effectiveness of the PUSH technique in improving nasal airflow and aesthetic outcomes. METHODS Thi...
