Plastic Surgery 2019: Deep Temporalis Fascia Blanketing Supra- SMAS layer Versus Sub- SMAS layer dissection and preservation in preventing nasal dorsal irregularities

Rhinoplasty is a complex surgical procedure used to correct nasal deformities. The main aim of this procedure is to improve the function and aesthetic aspect of the nose, enhancing facial harmony and the symmetry of the nose .It is considered as one of the most challenging operations in the field of Otolaryngology practice. In primary rhinoplasty, the two common techniques used are sub superficial musculoaponeurotic system (Sub- SMAS)layer dissection and Supra SMAS deep Temporalis Fascia (DTF)blanketing for prevention of dorsal nasal irregularities. The aim of this study is to compare the irregularity of the nasal dorsum after rhinoplasty between(DTF)blanketing supra SMAS layer and(SubSMAS) layer dissection and preservation in primary rhinoplasty.
