 Technological advances in nasal-tip formation in rhinoplasty have been remarkable, and this has resulted in a new problem: differences in nose morphology depending on gender. As the awareness of gender identity continues to expand and the ideal nose shape changes depending on the trends of the times, the choice of nasal-surgery method is becoming more nuanced and complex than ever before. It can thus be difficult to decide what type of nose should be created for a patient based on his/her gender. However, in reality, the nose shape differs depending on patientsʼ gender among the secondary sexual characteristics, and surgery cannot be performed without considering this fact. We retrospectively analyzed the cases of the patients (38 males, 214 females; Median (IQR age 27 (23-32) yrs) who underwent rhinoplasty in the past 2 years at our hospital, focusing on gender differences in the selected surgical technique and the number of onlay grafts. The results of our analyses demonstrated that (i) there were no significant gender differences in the surgical technique, and (ii) the group of males had a higher number of onlay grafts. Although there were no significant differences in surgical techniques depending on gender, we speculate that differences in bone structure led to the differences in how large the nasal tip should be made. With this in mind, it is important to note that the aesthetic goals of each rhinoplasty should be customized to the individual patient, with an emphasis on facial balance and maintaining this balance in a reproducible manner.
