Rhinoplasty is a commonly performed cosmetic surgery. Clinicians are facing an increased demand on non-surgical procedures, therefore liquid rhinoplasty is gaining popularity. Given the characteristic of lipofilling to rejuvenate and improve skin texture, fat grafting can be used to reshape the nose in secondary rhinoplasty. Fat was injected in 27 patients with a mean age of 42 years. Volume of fat ranged from 1.5 to 4.5 cc with a mean of 2.2 cc. Patients were seen at 1 week, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year. Patient satisfaction was measured using the Rhinoplasty Outcome Evaluation questionnaire and plastic surgeons' evaluation. After 1 year follow up, 20 patients were satisfied with the results at 1 year. The aesthetic outcome was noted as very good in 11 patients, good in 9 patients, and poor in 3 patients. Most of the patients had an improvement in skin texture with trophic effect on the skin. No complications were seen in our series According to this study, nasal lipofilling is a safe and efficacious filler in secondary rhinoplasty. However, more studies are needed to assess the indications and limitations of nose lipofilling.

Background: The purpose of this study was to analysis the nostril symmetry and nasal stability following secondary rhinoplasty performed with either nasal septal cartilage implantation (G1) or simple alar cartilage suspension and internal fixation (G2) in patients with unilateral secondary cleft nasal deformity.
Methods: Nostril and alar symmetry were analyzed retrospectively in 13 consecutive patients in G1 and 17 in G2. Assessment of three indexes was first performed using photogrammetric measurements of photographs at pre-operation(T1), 7 days after repair (T2), and at least 6 months after repair (T3).

Background: Nasal cutaneous tumors impact appearance and function, affecting the patients' well-being. This study compares the outcomes of second intention healing, where wounds heal naturally, with flap transfer in nasal defect repair after tumor resection to evaluate its viability as an alternative.
Methods: In this multi-center study, 80 patients who underwent second intention healing and 70 patients who received flap transfer after nasal tumor resection between July 2018 and June 2023 were included.

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.

Background: Inconsistent and suboptimal outcomes in secondary cleft lip deformity repairs stem from the absence of a standardized classification system for nasolabial deformities, causing surgeons to rely heavily on their experience to determine surgical strategies. Nasal sill morphology reflects the severity of nasolabial deformities and plays a crucial role in facial aesthetics. This study introduces a novel classification for secondary cleft nasolabial deformities based on nasal sill morphology from the base view and provides tailored surgical techniques for each type.
