    Author: Wiemer DR.
    Journal: Clin Plast Surg; 1987 Apr; 14(2):357-65. PubMed ID: 2953521.
    Abstract:
    Rhinophyma, a florid overgrowth of the tip of the nose with hypervascularity and nodularity, is an unusual progression of acne rosacea of unknown cause. In this article, its history, etiology, stages of progression, and current concepts of medical and surgical treatment are reviewed. Successful treatment depends on a clear understanding of the disease and its early medical management as well as corrective surgery of the established tumor with meticulous attention to surgical details.
