The DELTA GRAFT offers a new solution for rhinoplasty challenges, improving nasal tip control and function. This innovative graft precisely shapes the lateral crura, stabilizing nasal valves for better aesthetic and functional outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Otorhinolaryngology
  • Facial Aesthetic Surgery

Background:

  • Nasal tip and middle vault control are significant challenges in rhinoplasty.
  • The lateral crura's complex dynamics complicate aesthetic and functional outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Introduce the DELTA GRAFT, a novel structural and functional graft for rhinoplasty.
  • Address multiple aesthetic and functional concerns of the nasal tip and middle vault.

Main Methods:

  • The DELTA GRAFT technique allows precise modulation of lateral crus shape and eversion.
  • It adjusts the resting angle and redefines the crural-septal relationship.
  • The graft stabilizes internal and external nasal valves and facilitates tip rotation and support.
