Abstract:
The author's methods for the treatment of rhinophyma is described. Nasal lesions are removed in a three-step procedure. The resultant wound surfaces are sealed with fibrin sealant, consisting of highly concentrated human fibrinogen which is clotted with a thrombin solution. The resultant fibrin clot adheres firmly to the wound surface. Spot-bleeding from numerous small vessels is controlled by sealant application. Postoperative wound healing is accelerated and cosmetic results are excellent.
