Complex Rhinoplasty

What is a complex rhinoplasty?

A complex rhinoplasty is also known as a revision rhinoplasty. It is done for revision of a primary rhinoplasty which may not have yielded the desired results. As opposed to a primary rhinoplasty, which is a very routine cosmetic procedure, a complex or a revision rhinoplasty requires more precision and dexterity. A revision rhinoplasty is more complex because the surgeon has to deal with the outcome of the previous rhinoplasty and perform one more revision rhinoplasty for the desired functional or cosmetic outcome. In many cases, the primary reason behind a revision a revision rhinoplasty is patient dissatisfaction. So, the patient may want a revision rhinoplasty in case he is not happy with the cosmetic outcome or is facing some medical issue post- surgery.

If a primary rhinoplasty is performed without any pre- operative considerations or an inadequate technique is used, the outcome from the complex rhinoplasty will not be up to the mark. This may mandate the patient to undergo a revision rhinoplasty. Because of the complex consequences of the first rhinoplasty the patients are observed to be very stressed and conscious about their appearance.

What are the considerations during a revision rhinoplasty?

While performing a complex rhinoplasty, a surgeon takes care of the following points:-

  • The structure of the reconstructed nose should be as close as possible to the original nose structure of the patient.
  • After the revision rhinoplasty, the overall balance of facial features should be restored.
  • Once the revision rhinoplasty is complete, the patient should not face any breathing issue.
  • The overall nasal structure should be strong enough to go through the healing period after the revision rhinoplasty.
Use of grafts in revision rhinoplasty:-

The term grafting refers to the procedure in which skin tissues or cartilage are harvested from one part of the body and fixed on to some other part. In a complex or revision rhinoplasty grafts may be harvested from a body part and fixed on to the nasal framework to give it strength and shape. Since our nose is made up of bone and cartilage, the grafts which are used in a revision rhinoplasty are also made up of cartilage which gives support to the complex structure of the reconstructed nose after a revision rhinoplasty. Grafts may be utilized in a revision rhinoplasty through an open or a closed technique. Use of harvested grafts for complex reconstruction of the nose has various benefits. They not only reinforce the structural framework of the nose but they also give more operational flexibility to the surgeon. One of the most common myths in India about use of grafts in a revision rhinoplasty is that the grafts are visible on the surface. The truth is that if the surgeon uses the correct technique, the grafts will be perfectly placed without any visibility.

Grafts which are harvested from ears are known as auricular cartilage grafts. When the auricular cartilage grafts are harvested the shape of the ears does not change. The auricular cartilage can be taken from the anterior or posterior of the ear. For better aesthetic results auricular cartilage is harvested from the posterior so that there is no visible scar in the front. Once the auricular graft is harvested because of the swelling the ear may look slightly protruded. But it returns to normal once the swelling subsides.
