Objectives: The objective is to analyze the altered anatomy of the second surgery and to make an effort to rebuild the correct and functional anatomy and function of the nose trow the use of cartilage from the septum, concha, and ribs

Introduction: secondary surgery of the nose represents the major challenge for the nose surgeon, and the creation of an algorithm is useful to reach a secure path for the final result

Materials / method: progressive surgery related to the degree of defect to correct and create of the algorithm is the only reasonable solution to the problem.
In the Department of plastic surgery of the university of Rome "Tor Vergata," we apply this concept

Results: Patients operated from 1990 to 2005 show a quality of results inferior to the cohort of patients operated from 2010 to the actual period due to the change of technique and the use of structural rhinoplasty

Conclusion: The aim of this study is to adjust the technique and the program of surgery for all of these patients from a structural point of view

Objectives: This paper aims to analyze how some common techniques might not produce the intended result in Indian noses, and what alternatives might be more effects

Introduction: Rhinoplasty is a popular surgery requested in the Indian subcontinent. However most rhinoplasty teaching and publications focuses on western noses. Some of the unique qualities of Indian noses include thick skin and thin cartilages, apart form cultural differences in desired results.

Materials / method: Patient records were retrospectively for
1. Age, Sex
2. Technique used
3. Results
4. Patient satisfaction
All procedures were done with open rhinoplasty.

Results: Initial cases relied more on minimalist suture techniques. These results were often camouflaged under a thick skin envelope. Further evolution included, greater use of grafts, wide undermining, skin thining, eliminating dead space, and focus on skin case including use of retinoids. These changes led to better results and greater patient satisfaction

Conclusion: Rhinoplasty is a fascinating surgery where multiple roads can lead to the same destination. However Indian noses have their unique features which need to be respected. The novice surgeon needs to understand that not all techniques used in western noses transfer equally to Indian noses. Respecting anatomy and adapting our techniques can ensure pleasing results.
