The authors present their experience with nasal reconstructive surgery using autologous grafts. Currently, grafts are classified into four categories: skin grafts, cartilage grafts, bone grafts, and composite grafts (Table 1). A sample of 132 patients with nasal defects requiring reconstruction was selected. Two cases, presenting nasal valve collapse and deformities after aesthetic nasal surgery, were analyzed in detail. Overall, satisfying aesthetic results (balanced tip projection, dorsum fullness, widening of internal nasal valve angle, minor scar retraction) were achieved for both patient and surgeon in 79% of the cases.
