Abstract:
Augmentation rhinoplasty using a silicone implant is the most popular operation in Japan, but is not without several complications such as exposure of the implant and its deviation. We obtained good results in preventing these complications by a fixation at the hollow which is made by chiseling the frontal bone and by fibrous tissue which grows through the small holes of the implant tail.
