Abstract

This article reviewed studies that support the use of implants for nasal valve surgery and augmentation rhinoplasty. For nasal valve collapse, there is a trend for rhinoplasty surgeons to use Monarch nasal implant, absorbable valve implant and titanium butterfly implant rather than traditional cartilaginous grafts. For augmentation rhinoplasty, it is still a gold standard to use autologous cartilage. However, alloplastic implants are still very popular for Asian rhinoplasty. A combination of implant materials for augmentation rhinoplasty can improve outcomes while minimizing complications. Application of implants and newer techniques in nasal valve surgery and augmentation rhinoplasty are important to enhance the outcome in rhinoplasty.
