Camouflage Techniques in Secondary Rhinoplasty

This review examines camouflage strategies in secondary rhinoplasty, including cosmetic makeup, injectable fillers, autologous fat grafting, fascia, cartilage, bone paste, and allogenic materials. Autologous cartilage-particularly diced or paste preparations-remains the most reliable option for long-term dorsal camouflage, whereas fascia provides smooth coverage for thin-skinned patients. Fat grafting offers both volume and regenerative benefits, although resorption is variable. AlloDerm, pericardium, and implants can be alternatives when autologous tissue is limited but carry higher complication risks. Current evidence is constrained by small cohorts and subjective assessments, underscoring the need for individualized selection and ongoing refinement of camouflage techniques.
