¸ñÀû: Alar vertical discrepancy including alar base has been viewed as one of the
most challenging reconstructive problems in rhinoplasty. Although various
techniques have been described before, we have created a simple technique
that consistently gives aesthetically acceptable results. ¹æ¹ý:We have designed the Seesaw technique to correct alar discrepancy (type 1 to
3). Type 1 has been used in 14 patients, type 2 in 3 patients and type 3 in
7 patients. These were used in primary as well as revision surgeries. °á°ú:Alar discrepancy was corrected satisfactorily in all cases with good
cosmetic outcome. One case required scar revision & another case required
revision for over-correction which ultimately yielded satisfactory results. °á·Ð:This new technique is quite easy to design and is effective in the
correction of alar discrepancy. It yields good postoperative results along
with satisfactory aesthetic outcomes. |
