Introduction: Orthognathic surgery consists of performing osteotomy of the maxilla and/or mandible with the aim of harmoniously positioning the facial thirds. The treatment of facial deformity can be combined with other aesthetic procedures, carried out concomitantly or at different operative times. Rhinoplasty can refine the aesthetic result of orthognathic surgery, improving the level of patient satisfaction. Objective: To perform an integrative review addressing the indications, possible...

Fat grafting has become popular, and many investigators confirmed the utility of fat grafting for facial rejuvenation. Fat grafting is thought to be an ideal method for facial rejuvenation because it is effective not only for volume augmentation, but also for improving skin quality. Objective: The objective of this article is to present a literature review of 27 studies...

Introduction: Rhinoplasty demands intense knowledge about the reconstruction of the osteocartilaginous structure. Depending on the thickness of the skin and subcutaneous tissue, the results after rhinoplasty may be more evident, with retractions and demarcations of the underlying structures, leading to an unaesthetic result. Objective: The present study aims to describe the platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) technique and the application options for the material in rhinoplasty, according to evidence...
