Abnormalities of the nasal septum subsequent to septorhinoplasty include structural deficits connected with incorrect excision of the cartilaginous portion, the persistence of deviation to varying degrees, and deformity of the supratip region. In the course of revision, the correction of septal anomalies constitutes an indispensable preliminary stage upon which the end result depends. A straigh...

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Nasal skin thickness has an important role in aesthetic results of rhinoplasty. The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term results of tip and supratip skin defatting technique in rhinoplasty subjects using ultrasonography. STUDY DESIGN Prospective, randomized, case-control study. METHODS Among 111 rhinoplasty cases referred to a university hospital between Feb...

Dear Editor, Rhinoplasty is technically demanding surgery, and even in the best of hands, postoperative healing and ultimate aesthetic outcome can be unpredictable. In addition to the risks of general anaesthesia, and a protracted postoperative convalescence, rhinoplasty may lead to adverse cosmetic sequelae of pollybeak deformity, over reduction of the bony or cartilaginous dorsum, inverted V ...

The nasal lobule is subdivided into the supratip, tip, and infratip. Various local flaps derived from the dorsal aspect of the nose are often used for resurfacing nasal tip defects, including some parts of the infratip and/or the supratip region.1–5 Isolated infratip defects after excisional therapies are less commonly encountered. In our opinion, it does not seem reasonable to reconstruct an i...

BACKGROUND Reconstruction of nasal alar defects is difficult because of the complex anatomy of the region. A frequent challenge in this area is repair of small cutaneous defects involving the lateral nasal supratip and the superior alar groove. OBSERVATIONS An oblique advancement flap that uses laxity from the nasal sidewall is described. Its benefits and limitations are compared with those o...
