Table 4 Comprehensive outline of the clinical implications drawn from the study

Correction of nasal valve collapse

Impaired nasal airflow due to valve collapse

Spreader graft placement to reinforce the nasal valve

CT aids in precise evaluation of nasal valve anatomy for targeted correction

Alar support enhancement

Insufficient alar support causing deformities

Alar batten grafts for enhanced lateral support

3D scanning for detailed assessment of alar support and graft placement planning

Improved columellar projection

Poor columellar projection affecting aesthetics

Columellar strut grafts for enhanced projection

CT imaging for insights into columellar anatomy and surgical planning

Nasal tip projection refinement

Suboptimal tip projection leading to imbalance

Tip grafts for precise tip projection refinement

3D scanning for precise measurement and planning for optimal tip projection

Reinforcement of lateral crus support

Weak lateral crus support causing nasal deformities

Lateral crural strut grafts for lateral support

CT scans for understanding lateral crus dynamics and support reinforcement

Stabilization of internal nasal valve

Internal nasal valve collapse affecting breathing

Onlay grafts to stabilize the internal nasal valve

CT imaging aids in identifying internal nasal valve issues and guides graft placement

Smooth nasal dorsum contour

Dorsal irregularities impacting nasal aesthetics

Onlay grafts for dorsal contour refinement

3D scanning assists in evaluating dorsal irregularities for precise contouring

Refinement of nasal tip shape

Undesirable tip shape detracting from overall appearance

Tip grafts for reshaping and refining the nasal tip

CT scans guide reshaping of the nasal tip for aesthetic refinement

Achieving harmonious nasal proportions

Nasal disproportions impacting overall facial harmony

Combination graft techniques for proportional balance

3D scanning aids in visualizing overall nasal proportions and guides surgical planning

Nasal dorsum volume augmentation

Insufficient nasal dorsum volume affecting aesthetics

Onlay grafts for dorsal volume augmentation

CT scans contribute to volume assessment and guide graft selection for augmentation

Sculpting and refining nasal tip appearance

Nasal tip irregularities affecting aesthetic appeal

Precision sculpting and tip refinement techniques

3D scanning offers a detailed view for sculpting and refining the nasal tip

Comprehensive correction of nasal deformities

Multifaceted nasal deformities post primary rhinoplasty

Combined grafting and sculpting techniques

Integrated use of CT and 3D scanning ensures a holistic approach to correction
