Abstract:
Multiple techniques and a variety of materials used for grafting have been described and applied over the years. Silicone implants are one of the most widely used alloplastic materials in Asian rhinoplasty, however, there are several complications. The authors report a case of an Asian woman who presented with implant rejection after 25 years later as a late complication of rhinoplasty. The patient was underwent revision augmentation rhinoplasty and stayed uneventful for 6 months as she was satisfied with aesthetic results and nasal airflow. The silicone implants are still going to be the most popular grafts in Asian augmentation rhinoplasty even so the long term complications must be kept in mind.
