A Comparative Study of Columellar Strut and Septal Extension Grafts for Tip Support in Rhinoplasty.

Rhinoplasty is one of the most common aesthetic surgical procedures. Columellar strut and septal extension grafts are commonly used for tip support, but their long-term effectiveness and stability remain debated. This study aims to compare the long-term postoperative stability of these two techniques.

Lengthening Short Noses in Rhinoplasty.

Rhinoplasty aims to create a nose in harmony with an ideal face, help patients with specific aesthetic concerns, and improve the nose's function. So, learning all types of deformities and rhinoplasty procedures is essential to solving that particular problem. So, we aimed to point at a neglected nasal deformity to serve as a guide in short nose rhinoplasty.

Measurement of Nasal Skin Thickness and Body Mass Index in Preoperative Rhinoplasty Patients Utilizing Computed Tomography Scanning and Ultrasound Techniques: A Prospective Comparative Study.

One of the most important indicators of rhinoplasty success is nasal skin thickness. Nasal thickness can lead to irregularities over the osseocartilaginous framework among patients with thin nasal skin and difficulty making tip work changes in patients with thick nasal skin. This study aimed to compare different objective methods.

Saudi Population Nasal Anthropometric Study: Local and International Comparison.

Anthropometric measurements are essential for diagnosing and treating various craniofacial disorders during nasal reconstruction and esthetic surgery. Different people have unique individual esthetic features that are a mixture of different races and backgrounds. This study aimed to compare 12 different anthropometric measurements in the Saudi Arabian population with those in other local and international studies.

Fillers Around the Nose.

Objectives: The aim of this paper is to review the fillers around the nose.

Methods: The literature search was performed at the PubMed and Proquest Central database of the Kirikkale University Library.

Results: Characteristics of an ideal dermal filling material would be low cost, high safety, not causing pain during filling, provoking few sensitivity reactions and being durable.

Description of Novel Technique for Managing Insufficient Nasal Skin Volume.

A short nose is a common esthetic problem faced by facial plastic surgeons. Rhinoplasty of the short nose has been recognized as a complex procedure to perform for achieving satisfactory results. The authors presented 4 cases of short nose in 4 Saudi men who underwent rhinoplasty using septal extension graft and closure the skin with secondary intention as an option to control skin tension after graft placement and to increase nose skin volume to prevent skin retraction, which may occur postoperatively during the healing process.

Comparison Between Using Monocryl Suture and Polypropylene Suture in Closure of Alar Base Excision in Rhinoplasty.

Background: Rhinoplasty is one of the most common procedures that act as a challenge for consistent outstanding results. Alar base reduction is a technique of rhinoplasty that is prescribed in many conditions. Wound closure requires using of sutures and there are several types of sutures for this purpose; however, good scar results are necessary for patients'satisfaction.

Complication Rates From Otoplasty at a Tertiary Facial Plastic Surgery Center: A Retrospective Analysis.

Prominent ears are considered the most common congenital external ear deformity among Caucasians. Affecting approximately 5% of the population, it runs in families and exhibits equal sex incidence. This study aimed to determine the complication rate from otoplasty in a tertiary facial plastic surgery center.

Prevalence of Body Dysmorphic Disorder Among Rhinoplasty Candidates: A Systematic Review.

Objective: Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) represents a bridge between the fields of psychiatry and cosmetic surgery. It is a psychiatric disorder involving altered body image and has been associated with cosmetic surgery. Many studies have investigated BDD following rhinoplasty.

Complications of the nasal dorsum reconstruction using autologous or alloplastic grafts: evidence from systematic review and meta-analysis.

Introduction: Augmentation rhinoplasty depends mainly on intact stable bony and cartilaginous parts. Many trials have used different materials as a graft to perform the operation and support the nose. Debate exists whether alloplastic or autogenic grafts are more appropriate.

Effect of Media on Facial Plastic Surgery in Saudi Arabia.

Objectives To evaluate the effect of social media, TV shows, plastic surgeons' self-advertisement, and before-and-after cosmetic surgery photos of patients who actually visited the clinic to seek a consultation or intervention. Methods This is a cross-sectional study; institutional review board approval was granted in 2018. This study was conducted among patients attending cosmetic clinics at King Abdulaziz University Hospital in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Prevalence of considering revision rhinoplasty in Saudi patients and its associated factors.

Background: Primary rhinoplasty outcomes may not meet individual expectations. Consequently, reoperation may be advocated to improve results. This study examines the prevalence of individuals considering revision rhinoplasty, while identifying the main cosmetic and functional complaints and factors associated.

The Axial Frontonasal Flap for Nasal Tip Defect: A Single Centre Experience.

Objectives Skin defects of the nose can be a surgical challenge for facial plastic surgeons. Often, invasive surgery of the nose is accompanied by aesthetic issues for the patient. Hence, following invasive surgery of the nose, a reconstructive procedure should be performed to correct the morphological and aesthetic issues.

Is Nasal Skin Thickness a Prognostic Indicator to Postoperative Edema and Ecchymosis?

Background: The size, shape, and symmetry of the nose contribute significantly to the facial aesthetic, so it is understandable why rhinoplasty is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures undertaken nowadays. Several factors are associated with the rates of both success and postoperative complications of rhinoplasty.

Aim: To determine the relationship between nasal skin thickness and postoperative periorbital ecchymosis and edema among patients who underwent rhinoplasty at King Abdulaziz University Hospital.

Audiological results of endoscopic surgical repair of the long process of incus.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to evaluate our experience with endoscopic repair of ossicular discontinuity at the incudostapedial joint, with or without an intact stapes suprastructure, and present our hearing results. We classify results based on the causative pathology, the type of ossiculoplasty, and type of lesion. We demonstrate the ability to endoscopically place a total ossicular replacement prosthesis (TORP), measuring 4.

Wharton's duct retropapillary approach.

Salivary lithiasis is more frequently encountered in patients with Wharton's duct. They are often treated with a minimally invasive technique, such as sialendoscopy. The problem with sialendoscopy, in some cases, has been that it will not be possible to cannulate the papilla and, thus, sialendoscopy will not be feasible.
