Dorsal preservation rhinoplasty has seen considerable advances in the recent years as many doctors have improved and developed new ideas on the subject. In the era of minimal trauma surgery, it is important to achieve a beautiful nasal aesthetic result with minimum injury to the nose. Preserving the main structures of the nasal pyramid has been pursued for more than a century, and some different approaches have been described and developed since then. Their strengths and weakness have been shown. The present society's demand for perfection is an added reason for improving the stability and predictability of preservation rhinoplasty. We describe a brand-new philosophy of approaching the nasal dorsum hump that combines both safety and delicacy in dealing with the anatomical structures with elegancy and accuracy and achieving the aesthetic goal required.

Patients who underwent cleft lip surgery in childhood may develop nasal malformation later in life. Various procedures have been described to correct these malformations. This study aims to describe our surgical approach and assess the morphometric outcomes of secondary cleft-lip rhinoplasty performed at the plastic surgery department in Marseille between 2002 and 2022.

Cephalic trimming of the lower lateral cartilage (LLC) can result in the collapse of the internal and external nasal valves, pinched nose, and alar retraction. The cephalic lateral crural advancement flap (CLCAF) technique is introduced as a method to prevent these complications by avoiding grafts in the LLC. A retrospective study was conducted on 126 open-approach rhinoplasties (82 female and 44 male) employing the CLCAF technique between January 2021 and March 2022.

Background: Dorsal management is a challenging step in rhinosurgery. In the last decade, an old philosophy of preserving the dorsum has gained popularity alongside the traditional hump resection proposed by Joseph. This study aims to investigate the journey of a rhinosurgeon transitioning from structural to dorsal preservation techniques in primary rhinoplasty.

To investigate whether there was a difference in the nasal airway dimensions after dorsal preservation and classical structural rhinoplasty. The surgical approach to rhinoplasty has improved over many decades. The first was the classic structural rhinoplasty (CSR) developed by Joseph, where the excess tissues are removed from the dorsal hump.

Grafts and flaps play significant roles in rhinoplasty procedures, while spreader grafts are commonly used. Spreader grafts are placed into submucosal pockets between the upper lateral cartilage and nasal septum. Occurrence of deviation can be seen on nondeviated noses after let-down or push-down methods are performed as the part of the upper septum that has been let-down may cause pressure on the lower septum and that results in deviation.
