Silicone implant augmentation rhinoplasty in Japan can lead to implant exposure and deviation. A novel fixation technique using frontal bone chiseling and implant tail holes effectively prevents these complications.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Otolaryngology
  • Biomaterials

Background:

  • Augmentation rhinoplasty using silicone implants is a prevalent procedure in Japan.
  • Common complications include implant exposure and deviation, impacting patient outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a novel fixation technique for silicone implants in augmentation rhinoplasty.
  • To reduce the incidence of implant exposure and deviation.

Main Methods:

  • A fixation method involving chiseling the frontal bone to create a hollow for the implant.
  • Utilizing fibrous tissue ingrowth through small holes in the implant tail for securement.

Main Results:

  • The described fixation technique demonstrated good results in preventing implant exposure.
