INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to evaluate postsurgical changes of nasal tip and lateral nostril characteristics after semi-tongue-in-groove (TIG) technique in open rhinoplasty surgery.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: This prospective observational study was performed in a before-after setting on 22 patients who underwent open rhinoplasty surgery using semi-TIG technique. Postoperative photographs were analyzed for nasal tip and lateral nostril changes at several time points (1, 4, and 12 weeks after surgery) and were compared with preoperative photographs. Nasal tip support change after the surgery was also assessed using a purpose-designed device.
RESULTS: In total, 22 patients were studied (20 females, 2 males). The tip support increased by 98%, 291.8%, and 377% at certain time points after the surgery. The tip rotation increased significantly at all measuring time points, postoperatively. The length of upper lip increased at all time points after semi-TIG technique. Columellar show and nostril length and height decreased significantly after the surgery.
CONCLUSION: The characteristics of the nasal tip and lateral nostrils along with nasal tip support showed significant improvement after the semi-TIG technique. Therefore, this technique is recommended in selected rhinoplasty cases to achieve more favorable objective results.
