A practical approach to nasal reconstruction in Asian patients

Abstract: Background: The study aimed to evaluate nasal reconstruction techniques customized for Asians. The currently available nasal reconstruction guidelines are based on Caucasian patients, and their applicability is limited in Asian patients due to differences in anatomical and structural features.Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed of the medical records of 76 patients who underwent nasal reconstruction at a single center between January 2010 and June 2020. A comprehensive evaluation was conducted of p… Show more

“…In this report, we describe a simple approach that achieved high patient satisfaction, required less operative time, and led to no recurrences. The locoregional flap was used in these defects in Asians in a previous study and had the same healing time and satisfaction results [ 10 ]. Healing took approximately 3–4 weeks in our report, whereas it could take more than 6–8 weeks with the traditional two-stage forehead flap or two-stage reconstruction with an acellular dermal matrix [ 1 , 6 , 21 ].…”

“…Due to skin phototypes, Asians are prone to hyperpigmentation, hypertrophic scars, and keloids after reconstruction. In practice, primary closure is chosen when the defect is minor (≤ 1 cm) or the patient is old and does not care about the aesthetic result [ 10 , 11 ].…”

“…A substantial amount of dorsal augmentation is frequently needed for Asian rhinoplasty because the nasal bones are flat, and the radix is relatively low in Asians compared to Caucasians [1][2][3]. Various nasal implants have been used for dorsal augmentation.…”
