“…Nearly 80% of patients who sued their surgeon after rhinoplasty did so due to poor perceived cosmetic outcomes, and almost 40% because of functional problems postoperatively, according to a 2011 published study. 4 Although there are literature describing complication rates and perioperative risk factors, 1,[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] there remains a paucity of data connecting these real complications to the theoretical risks described during the rhinoplasty consent process. The relationship between what is routinely discussed during the informed consent process and actually documented complication rates is unknown for rhinoplasty, and correlations have not been established.…”

Importance: Informed consent in rhinoplasty is a challenging process due to the technically demanding surgery with a wide array of potential complications. Objective: To underscore the significance of informed consent in rhinoplasty, its complications, and identify gaps in the consent process. Design, Setting, and Participants: Dual search and comparison. First a review of the literature for rhinoplasty articles was carried out between January 2000 and November 2017 with at least 100 patients to identify complications and their incidences. Then a comprehensive online search for rhinoplasty consent forms was carried out to identify consent form topics and their incidences. Main Outcomes and Measures: Consent form topics and complication rates from the literature review were reported and directly compared. Results: A total of 117 articles were included, with 36 different complications reported. Twenty-four consent forms were evaluated, yielding 80 different topics. Common complications within the literature included skin problems such as acne (18.3%), numbness (16.7%), hospital revisit (6.5%), primary source revision rate (5.3%), and dissatisfaction (5.0%). The most commonly covered consent topics included infection (100%), bleeding (95.8%), and scarring (95.8%). Unsatisfactory results and need for revision were only covered in 83.3% and 75.0% of consent forms, respectively, despite both being in the top 5 complications cited in the literature. Conclusions and Relevance: Rhinoplasty consent forms generally cover a wide range of topics, with varying incidences of complications cited within the literature. Certain complications such as dissatisfaction and revision surgery should be included in every consent process. These data help provide a contextual framework as well as valuable information in preoperative counseling for patients and physicians regarding rhinoplasty and its potential complications Level of Evidence: NA

“…The overall warping rate as reported by fifteen studies (530 participants) was 1.6% (95% CI 0.5%−2.6%). Four studies 16 , 24 , 35 , 36 used alloplastic grafts and reported a prevalence rate of 1.6% (95% CI −0.5% to 3.7%), while in the autogenic group, the pooled proportion of warping as reported by ten studies 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 23 , 28 , 33 , 37 , 38 , 39 was 1.5% (95% CI 0.3%−2.8%) ( Fig. 4 ).…”

“…After implanting the ePTFE material, an histological observation showed that there was more tissue cells and giant cells on the surface of the material, the pores of the material were filled with a collagen matrix, the fibroblasts and functional capillaries attached to the surface of the material, and the tissue adheres to the surface of the material and grows in the pores of the material. Although the microporous structure of the material is firmly integrated into the tissue, it does not form a fibrous cystic structure and can be completely removed [ 43 ]. Good biocompatibility.…”

Review of Plastic Surgery Biomaterials and Current Progress in Their 3D Manufacturing Technology

et al. 2020

Plastic surgery is a broad field, including maxillofacial surgery, skin flaps and grafts, liposuction and body contouring, breast surgery, and facial cosmetic procedures. Due to the requirements of plastic surgery for the biological safety of materials, biomaterials are widely used because of its superior biocompatibility and biodegradability. Currently, there are many kinds of biomaterials clinically used in plastic surgery and their applications are diverse. Moreover, with the rise of three-dimensional printing technology in recent years, the macroscopically more precise and personalized bio-scaffolding materials with microporous structure have made good progress, which is thought to bring new development to biomaterials. Therefore, in this paper, we reviewed the plastic surgery biomaterials and current progress in their 3D manufacturing technology.
