  • Title: Optimizing the Soft Tissue Triangle, Alar Margin Furrow, and Alar Ridge Aesthetics: Analysis and Use of the Articulate Alar Rim Graft.
    Author: Goodrich JL, Wong BJ.
    Journal: Facial Plast Surg; 2016 Dec; 32(6):646-655. PubMed ID: 28033641.
    Abstract:
    The alar lobule, alar margin, and soft triangle facet are receiving more attention in the literature as critical elements to address both preoperatively and during rhinoplasty. We have found that the use of the articulated alar rim graft (AARG) corrects deficiencies in these areas as well as provides mechanical stability to the external valve. In this article, we describe indications for AARG, describe in detail the procedure for AARG placement, and highlight the transformation AARGs can achieve in two illustrated case studies.
