Abstract：Objective lo explore the application effect of temporal fascia tissue in rhmoplasty for patients with thin nasal dorsal skin.Methods From January 2021 to December 2023,the Shanghai United Lige Medical Cosmetology Clinic used temporal fascia to cover prostheses to improve nasal dorsal skin thinness and prosthesis appearance in 28 patients,and observed the postoperative rhinoplasty effect and patient satisfaction.Results Twenty-eight patients were followed up for 6 to 12 months,with an average of(7.1±1.1)months.Satisfaction score:nasal dorsum morphology(9.5±1.3),nasal frontal angle(9.1±1.2),nasal facial angle(9.4±1.4),nasal tip morphology(9.0±1.3),and nostril morphology(8.9±2.3),with a satisfactionrate of 92.86％(26/28).All patients showed high satisfaction with nasal dorsum mor-phology.One patient felt a widening of the nasal dorsum within 1 month after surgery,but the swelling subsided 6 months later and improved after fascia absorption.One patient felt nasal root height and a satisfactory shape after secondary surgery adjustment.Conclusion The use of temporal fascia tissue to cover the prosthesis in rhinoplasty can thicken the nasal dorsal tissue,improve the appearance of the prosthesis,and provide a natural and smooth nasal dorsal shape with stable results.It is a technology worth promoting.
