Platelet-rich fibrin in rhinoplasty : A precise and standardized approach

Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved..

Rhinoplasty is a complex procedure. To achieve the expected aesthetic result, surgeons often use grafts both for structural and camouflage purposes. The perfect camouflage graft should be soft, malleable and precisely tailored to the patient's needs, with as few donor sites as possible. The use of diced cartilage has been widely described, but it cannot be used as a free graft in all cases. Platelet-rich fibrin is an interesting matrix for the creation of soft grafts with great precision and high reproducibility while promoting biocellular regeneration via growth factors. This article describes the use of platelet-rich fibrin in liquid and solid forms for the creation of standardized soft grafts with diced cartilage. We detail the procedure, and present the different grafts created by the author for dorsal camouflage and augmentation, tip management, and revision rhinoplasty.
