2 Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty is considered one of the most challenging facial augmentation procedures, as it incorporates reduction, relocation, and augmentation with a variety of individual nasal deformities [1]. The first rhinoplasties focused only on reduction of the dorsal hump and adjacent nasal structures. Surgical advancements over the years have moved in the direction of a proportional approach, incorporating grafting and minimally invasive techniques [2]. Today, there are a plethora of options available to patients, including filler augmentation and ultrasonic nasal osteotomy [3]. The various osseocartilaginous nasal structures are shown below, and the procedures targeted to augment these structures will be discussed in detail throughout the remainder of the chapter (Fig. 1).

Nasal symmetry and proportions directly impact facial beauty, and there is no universal “ideal nose.” Rather, the ideal size and shape of the nasal constituents is dependent on the individual’s surrounding facial characteristics [2]. The physical appearance of the nose and any self­perceived deformities are a primary motivation for patients who pursue aesthetic rhinoplasty. Satisfaction post-rhinoplasty for functional and/or aesthetic deformities is shown to be largely reliant on appearance [4]. Dimensional alterations should be made carefully and critically to avoid overcompensation and help ensure an ideal aesthetic appearance [5].
In addition to aesthetic improvement, nasal function should be a top priority for surgeons performing rhinoplasty.
2.1 Review of Relevant Anatomy
The external nose can be examined from frontal, lateral, and basal viewpoints. The bony and cartilaginous nasal structures in this outermost region are best identified as part of the upper, middle, or lower nose. The upper third of the nose is comprised mainly of the nasal bones, with minor cartilaginous overlap. These are two paired bones which originate at the frontal bone and extend both posteriorly and anteriorly, connected by a bony suture along the midline of the face. This suture begins superiorly/caudally at the radix to form the nasofrontal angle and continues inferiorly/anteriorly to eventually form the rhinion (most inferior point). Additional bony articulations extend laterally from the nasal bones, including the lacrimal bones at the superior aspect and nasomaxillary processes at the inferior aspect [6].
The middle vault is comprised of the paired rectangular upper lateral cartilages (ULCs), which are the basis for the middle third of the nose. The ULC fuses with the nasal septum superiorly and extends laterally to the borders of the piriform aperture (pear-shaped opening of the skull below the nasal bones). The middle cartilaginous vault helps to provide fibrous support for the dorsum of the nose and nasal valves [6, 7]. Surgeons should use extra caution at the keystone area, a location characterized by 4–5 mm of nasal bone overlapping ULCs. This region is important in determining the contour and aesthetics of the dorsal hump [2]. Paired lower lateral cartilages (LLCs) form the basis of the lower third, making up the lateral, middle, and medial crus. The nasal columella is composed of the medial crurae, extending to the tip of the nose anterosuperiorly and upper lip

inferiorly [8]. The structural relationship between LLCs and adjacent cartilage/bone is the key determinant of nasal tip shape and size [2].
The nasal septum is ideally located in the midline of the nose and is posteriorly composed of the vomer, maxillary/palatine bones (inferiorly), and ethmoid bone. Quadrangular segments of irregular hyaline cartilage form the anterior septum. This quadrangular cartilage inserts into the bony nasal spine and nasomaxillary crest of the maxilla [6, 10].
Intranasally, the turbinates are bony outgrowths which constitute the lateral nasal walls. Extensions from the ethmoid bone form the middle and superior turbinates, while the inferior turbinate is a separate bony structure. Functionally, they are responsible for the physiological processing of inhaled air through humidification and warming of inhaled particles. Drainage from the sinuses and lacrimal glands is continuous with these turbinates, allowing for meatal communication [10].
The nose is mainly supplied through the supratrochlear (internal carotid a. branch) and facial (external carotid a. branch) arteries. Anastomosis of these arteries with branches of ascending columellar arteries forms a rich vascular network, which allows for maintenance of nasal blood supply with wide undermining. Kiesselbach’s plexus is comprised of anastomosed ethmoid a. (anterior and posterior), sphenopalatine a., and superior labial artery branches, vascularizing the nasal septum. The vasculature is illustrated in Fig. 2 [8].

2.2 Preoperative Patient Assessment
The patient’s perception of their appearance should always be considered by the surgeon, although with rhinoplasty, additional precautions should be taken. Many individuals who pursue aesthetic rhinoplasty specify perceived deformities that may not be detected by an observer, indicating an underlying psychological disturbance. Body dysmorphic disorder often presents around the time of pubertal onset in young adolescents and is indicated by altered self-perceived attractiveness [12]. The nasal structure is the second most common trigger for distress related to appearance, preceded by acne. There is continued debate as to whether underlying body dysmorphic disorder should prevent patients from undergoing elective rhinoplasty [1, 13, 14].
https://t.me/medicina_free
Patients who wish to correct alar flaring or malposition, drooping or bulbous nasal tip, and the width/projection of the dorsum are indicated for aesthetic rhinoplasty. Aging and ethnicity can affect the aesthetic appearance of the nose, and these are some other common reasons listed by patients when pursuing surgery. Functional defects such as saddle nose or twisted nose deformities, vestibular stenosis, external/internal nasal valve collapse, and cleft nose deformities can be corrected with functional and aesthetic rhinoplasty [5].
The contraindications for aesthetic rhinoplasty are not set in stone, as this is considered an elective procedure performed at the surgeon’s discretion. If patients are unsatisfied with previous surgeries or have a history of prior traumatic injury to the nose, they should be referred to a plastic surgeon with sufficient experience in these areas. Dissatisfaction can result from contour irregularities or asymmetry, nasal dysfunction, or resultant postoperative deformities. In all cases, the patient’s aesthetic goal should be considered, as this can help to ensure satisfaction after the procedure [5].
The surgical care team is responsible for obtaining a thorough patient history before they are considered for rhinoplasty. Past medical history should be collected in detail to assess their overall physical health and identify relevant contraindications. As discussed with previous surgeries, impaired wound healing is anticipated in individuals with diabetes mellitus, vascular insufficiency, and/or hypertension. Guidelines regarding use of tobacco and blood-thinning pharmaceuticals or supplements apply here.
There are additional factors to be considered before rhinoplasty listed below, which specifically impact the nasal structure and postoperative complication risk.
Cocaine Abuse
– Nasal inhalation of cocaine causes chronic inflammation of the
mucosa, as well as severe vasoconstriction. Patients who specify recreational drug use are indicated for additional exploration with rhinoscopy to identify septal collapse or perforation. Reparative septoplasty can be utilized to correct septal defects when necessary, but these patients are contraindicated for aesthetic rhinoplasty [15].
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)
https://t.me/medicina_free
– This condition may not present with obvious symptoms, but if OSA is
suspected, the diagnosis should be confirmed with polysomnography (sleep studies). OSA increases the risk of anesthetic and postoperative complications. Patients may still undergo aesthetic rhinoplasty at the surgeon’s discretion, and in these cases, the use of a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) device reduces breathing complications [16].
Past Surgical History
– Past surgical history (especially previous rhinoplasty) can provide the
care team with a better idea of the underlying nasal structures and their integrity. Revisional rhinoplasty after alloplastic nasal implants puts patients at a higher risk for some complications, including infection, extrusion, and challenges in maintaining nasal projection and dorsal height. In some cases, autologous cartilage grafting is necessary to meet the patient’s expectations and complete the procedure. Surgical rhinoplasty performed after filler rhinoplasty may require additional nasal reconstruction and/or debridement in the event of ischemia or necrosis [17, 18].
The motivation to pursue rhinoplasty should be identified through the assessment of the patient’s goals and the impact of cultural and psychosocial factors on these goals [6].
Aesthetic appearance and function should both be considered to ensure the best possible outcome of rhinoplasty. An intranasal examination from the base view is performed to determine the integrity of the inferior turbinates and nasal septum and valves [19, 20]. Surgeons use a speculum to examine the inside of the nose for any symptoms of turbinate hypertrophy, septal perforation/deviation, or external/internal nasal valve collapse. Dynamic examination techniques are used to confirm valve integrity if suspected; positive signs include collapse during inhalation and assessment of congestion improvement with cheek retraction [2123] (Fig.
3).

Fig. 3 Nasal valve collapse can take on a varied appearance as shown in the images, depending on the severity of damage and stability of surrounding nasal structures [24]
Skin characteristics can indicate how well the nose will heal and predict stiffness of the postoperative nasal tip and upper lip. A superficial skin examination is performed to assess thickness, laxity, and quality (dry vs. sebaceous). Irregularities of nasal contour and shape may be more visible with certain skin types. Palpation of the nasal bones and their surrounding structures can reveal previous surgery or trauma and inform surgeons of cartilage (lower lateral and septal) integrity. Any asymmetry or defects should be noted as well [23, 25].
Photos are taken from different viewpoints (frontal, oblique, and base profiles), which can be virtually remodeled to show patients the potential augmentation results. The surgeon should lead this discussion and explain the realistic changes that can be made. Virtual remodeling can be used as a guide to help the surgeon understand each patient’s goals and expectations; however, it should be made clear that the images produced are not guaranteed results [6].
The surrounding structures of the face should be considered, as drastic changes to the shape and size of the nose can lead to a “mismatched” aesthetic appearance. For best results, the patient’s goals are used to influence the surgeon’s reconstructive decisions as opposed to leading them [6].

After the general integrity and functional status of the nasal structures and tissues are determined, the surgeon will visually assess the proportions of the nose, using aesthetic guidelines to propose corrections which line up with the patient’s goals. These are listed in Tables 1 and 2, along with the potential deformities which are indicative of rhinoplasty [2629, 30] (Fig.
4).
