title: Recent methods of rhinoplasty for orientals.
abstract: Aesthetic rhinoplasty for Orientals now involves the convex dorsum, as well as the saddle, or concave, nose. The author has devised a specific method of reparation for correction of the over-developed nasal dorsum or hump with flat tip that comprises rhinoplasty in which reduction, remodeling, and implantation are carried out simultaneously. Two small implants of dimethylpolysiloxane are used to correct the acute subnasal angle and remodel the nasal tip and the nasal hump. The surgical techniques have been successfully used for Orientals during the past 15 years.
