The main purpose of hair transplantation is to restore the hair loss. During the process, obtaining a natural appearance and adequate hair intensity is important. In the FUE method, grafts can be taken without changing their natural structure, there is no need for magnification, and the grafts can be transplanted directly without using any other processes. Because there is no suture in the FUE method, patients do not experience these incision site problems and scar formation. The FUE method enables us to achieve a natural appearance with less morbidity.
The endonasal approach is an appropriate choice for select patients due to the lower chance of complications and a shorter procedure time. With open rhinoplasty with the transcolumellar incision technique, the type of surgery can be more easily controlled, however, extended nasal tip edema and columellar scar are some of the disadvantages of this method. ORWTI allows a patient to avoid these disadvantages and provides a more controlled procedure, similar to the open method.
Late bleeding in septorhinoplasty is rare. It may be prevented by completely filling the nasal cavity so that there is no dead space between the septal mucosal membranes and the drainage opening. If bleeding occurs, it can be treated by placement of a tampon soaked in adrenalin and tranexamic acid plus intravenous administration of 250 mg tranexamic acid.
