Falconry graft: a predictable technique to restore soft triangle defects in rhinoplasty

Abstract The nasal soft triangles are extremely vulnerable subunits of the nose that are prone to severe unaesthetic deformities. A technique to overcome these problems, comprising an effective simple modification of the shield graft, is presented. Using this technique, many existing soft triangle deformities, notches, and defects are easily restored. It may also be applied effectively in susceptible cases in order to avoid these complications. This article presents technical details and the cases of two patients treated with the technique, which indicate its potential utility.
