Surgical anatomy for Asian noses

Surgical anatomy for Asian noses

Surgical anatomy for Asian noses

Anatomy of Asian noses | The upper part of the nose, which includes the skin and soft tissues, is located on the nasal bone. This skin covers the external area of ​​the nose and the tissue of the upper layer of the nose consists of 5 layers. These layers include skin, superficial fat layer, fibro-muscular layer, deep fat layers, perichondrium or peristrome..

The upper layer in the noses of Asians has a thick fat layer, and as a result, the upper layer of the nose is more oily and the fibro layer- They have deeper fat. Therefore, the flexibility of the upper layer of the nose in these patients must be considered and checked. The thickness, gender, and flexibility of the top layer of the nose are characteristics that should be carefully examined before rhinoplasty surgery..

Due to the location of the epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous skin in this area, surgery and working on the top of the nose may cause problems for the surgeon.. It doesn't matter how thick or thin the top layer is, and what matters is the elasticity or flexibility of the skin.. Therefore, in the case of working on the nose of a patient who has thin skin, the skin and soft tissues should be considered as a component..

Nasal skin and muscle in Asian people

The skin of the nose is thicker at the tip of the nose, which makes the nose maintain its shape. For this reason, it is somewhat difficult to change the shape of the tip of the nose in rhinoplasty. Therefore, careful examination and evaluation of the nasal skin in Asian nose surgery is very important to determine the quality of the skin. The characteristics of the top layer of the nose are different in different people, and even in different areas of the nose, this layer can have different characteristics. Nasal skin is thicker when its flexibility is low. In any case, the skin on the tip of the nose becomes thicker.

The nasal muscles of Asians also have unique characteristics that the surgeon needs to thoroughly examine to perform surgery.. In some cases, the nasal muscles are short and need to be lengthened. All these examinations are done in the consultation session before nose surgery.

If swelling occurs in the area, the inflamed area should be opened immediately. It is better to remove any prosthesis or connective tissue as much as possible. It is not appropriate for the doctor to wait to see how the body reacts. Because the events and reactions that the body shows internally can be far more serious and do not show on the outside.. Do not insert any prosthesis in the area, except in the area of ​​the bridge of the nose. Prostheses that are used in the area of ​​the tip of the nose do not cause problems in the future.

Tips to reduce the complexity of rhinoplasty surgery

The safety of these materials must be ensured and then used. Surgeons should not use them blindly and just because some of these substances are used. Prostheses to which the body has reacted should be removed immediately. First, the wound caused by the removal of the prosthesis should be allowed to heal, and then, if possible, another prosthesis should be used. It is very important to remove the prosthesis quickly.

Medicines before rhinoplasty

It is very important to know about the medications you should take before rhinoplasty. However, more importantly, what medications can you not take before rhinoplasty? Medicines that people who want to do nose surgery usually take are divided into 3 categories:

  • Prescription drugs

Antibiotic use in rhinoplasty

Antibiotic use in rhinoplasty

Antibiotic use in rhinoplasty and septorhinoplasty

Since antimicrobial resistance is a global threat, optimal use of antibiotics after rhinoplasty surgery is critical.. The research that has been done in the field of head and neck surgery and the effect of antibiotic use in rhinoplasty and septorhinoplasty surgeries has been investigated.. In the following, we will give explanations in this field.

Isfahan nose surgeon 
 | Antibiotic use in rhinoplasty .

The effect of antibiotic use in rhinoplasty surgeries

10 researches were conducted in this field. Studies looking at antibiotics have shown practically the same infections in people who received antibiotics and those who did not.. No patient experienced significant systemic infection. In cases where antibiotics were used after surgery, the infection rate decreased from 27% to 8%. In uncomplicated cases, there was no significant difference in infection rates between those who received the drug and those who did not.

The result of studies

Antibiotics before and after rhinoplasty and septoplasty surgery have no advantage in reducing the infection rate. The use of these drugs, such as cefazolin, is very important in complex surgeries. This medicine should be taken within one hour after making the cut, and it should be taken for 24 hours, and then the use of this medicine should be stopped. In complex cases, more studies were conducted to check the accuracy of this information.

Rhinoplasty, which is the third most common cosmetic surgery, is performed for aesthetic and functional purposes. The differences between septoplasty and rhinoplasty play an important role in antibiotic selection. In septoplasty, an incision is made in the nasal area and nasal cartilage and part of the cartilage is removed. In septoplasty surgery, the skin of the nose is not manipulated and only the nasal septum is corrected. But in rhinoplasty, whether incisions are made in the skin of the nose or not, an incision is always made inside the nose, which leads to contamination of the soft skin tissue..

Although this surgery is non-sterile, it requires very few drugs because the infection rate is less than 1%. However, antibiotics are used in 91% of the 220,000 nose surgeries performed annually in the United States..

Rhinoplasty is one of the most common cosmetic surgeries. There is a possibility of infection in all surgeries, however, recent studies were conducted to check the need for this drug.

Functional rhinoplasty and nasal obstruction complication

Functional rhinoplasty and nasal obstruction complication

Functional rhinoplasty

What is functional rhinoplasty and in what cases is it performed? Nasal obstruction is one of the most common problems of nose surgeons. Nasal obstruction has various causes and in some cases surgery is needed to reconstruct the nasal cavity and remove the obstruction. One of the main causes of nasal obstruction Deviated septum Is. Nasal septum surgery or septorhinoplasty helps to remove nasal obstruction caused by anatomical disorders of the nose.

Research has shown that septoplasty alone leads to a slight recovery of the nasal passage, but internal and external reconstruction of the nose will have a much more effective result.. In fact, the result of septorhinoplasty is much more successful. This surgery is a combination of septoplasty and internal and external nasal cavity reconstruction.

Isfahan nose surgeon | Important points for the nose surgery consultation session .

Cause of nasal obstruction

The function of the nose as a physiological organ has about 50% resistance to air flow. Disruption of the aerodynamic system of the nose causes a change in the shape and function of the nasal cavities. Many studies have been conducted in this field, and the result indicates that if rhinoplasty is performed to fix defects in the nasal cavity, in 10% to 54% of cases, there is a weakness of the nasal duct or valve, which must be corrected during the surgery.. One of the main causes of nasal obstruction is the weakness of the internal nasal passage.

Nasal obstruction can be caused by a congenital abnormality in the nasal cavity or it can be caused by a defect in the nasal valve.. People with nasal passage abnormalities suffer from nasal obstruction. One of the issues that should be paid special attention to is injuries to the nose during childhood. This can be misclassified as a congenital disorder when the patient has a history of nasal trauma in childhood.

A common cause of nasal obstruction

According to the research conducted, in 42% of cases, nasal obstruction was caused by damage to the nose. Another reason for nasal obstruction is the inconsistent presence of bony and cartilaginous plates in cases of nasal deviation.

Correcting these problems will go a long way in relieving the symptoms of nasal obstruction, and also plays an important role in functional rhinoplasty. In 1984, an experiment was conducted on three groups of patients using the Endonasal spreader graft technique ( duct opener ) Help was received. The evidence indicated that in most cases it is necessary to reconstruct the middle nasal arch.

Open rhinoplasty technique

Open rhinoplasty technique has been widely used in the past decades. Especially in cases where rhinoplasty is performed for the second time. 72% of surgeons use open surgery technique in the first surgery. Open surgery technique is used in 76% of rhinoplasty cases for the second time. With these explanations, we conclude that in most cases the technique Open surgery It is chosen because the accessibility and maneuverability of the surgeon is higher in this technique.

Functional rhinoplasty is performed to improve and correct nasal obstruction and nasal septum deviation. Although rhinoplasty helps to make the nose more beautiful and remove defects, and in the end, a more beautiful and proportionate nose can be achieved, but the primary purpose of this surgery is treatment..
