Use of tutoplast-processed fascia lata as an onlay graft material for tip surgery in rhinoplasty
Jang YJ, Kim JH.
In the archive as a landmark paper: the core sweep runs 2011–2026, and this one is here because the history of rhinoplasty rests on it · cited on tip onlay graft.
From the abstract
“Tutoplast-processed fascia lata (TPFL) is a commercially available homograft that has been successfully used as human graft tissue for dorsal augmentation in rhinoplasty. The present study evaluated the use of TPFL as an onlay tip graft material in rhinoplasty. Study Design: Case series with chart review. Setting:…”

Rib, ear and septal grafts
Modern rhinoplasty builds rather than removes, so the operation runs on cartilage: the septum first, then the ear, then the rib, and when none of those will do, a piece of donated rib from a tissue bank.
Nasal tip
Tip surgery is now a support problem rather than a sculpting problem: the septal extension graft holds projection and rotation where the columellar strut loses them (0.2% against 4.7% projection loss at one year), and the current series repair, reposition and reinforce the lower lateral cartilages instead of excising them.
