Abstract
Program Description:
Four experienced rhinoplasty surgeons divulge their 3 techniques that prove useful in almost every case. Every component of rhinoplasty will be covered systematically with tips being offered on the straight dorsum, functional middle vault, and the refined tip. Videos or step-by-step photographs will enable attendees to quickly grasp how and when to use these maneuvers to consistently improve their patient outcomes. Topics to be covered include grafts in rhinoplasty made easy, management of the lateral crus, ultrasonic sculpting of the dorsum, suture fixation techniques revisited, and critical closing steps.
Educational Objectives:
(1) Employ suture techniques such as medial crural fixation stitch and upper lateral cartilage suspension sutures to maintain tip projection and middle vault competency, respectively. (2) Select cartilage grafts that camouflage defects, reinforce projection, and maintain the nasal airway. (3) Choose appropriate tip refinement techniques to consistently improve patient outcomes.
